Cat adoption in Scotland
Cat adoption in Glasgow
Could you provide a loving new home for a cat in Glasgow? During the process of adopting a cat from us, we’ll consider everything from your potential pet’s personality and how this fits with your lifestyle, to your home environment – creating the perfect match for both cat and owner and the start of a wonderful feline friendship.
Cats available for adoption are featured below. To express your interest in a particular cat, please click the 'enquire about' button on their individual listing. We read through all the applications and if you’re found to be a great match for your chosen cat, we will contact you via phone or email and go over the cat's history and medical status with you.
Our Scotland Cat Centre (G66) is the admissions centre for all the cats relinquished into our care. It is where they receive the important veterinary care needed before they go up for adoption. This centre is open by appointment only.
Our Glasgow Cat Centre (G41) houses our cats that are available for adoption and is open Wednesday to Monday, 11am to 3pm, and closed on Tuesdays.
If you are keen to adopt we would always recommend that you register your interest online, to make sure that we have the perfect moggy-match before your visit - please email us at: enquiries@glasgow.cats.org.uk
If you live in rented accommodation, we require written permission from your council/landlord to keep a cat. We would recommend having this in place before applying for a cat.
Once you have reserved your cat, you’ll be sent the adoption paperwork via email, along with lots of useful information about settling your new cat into your home. We will also ask for proof of address at this time. The adoption fee is £100 per cat and £120 per kitten. This can be paid by cash or card at the Glasgow Cat Centre when you come to collect your feline friend.
Once this is finalised, we will arrange an appointment time for you to collect your cat. Most cats ready for homing are in our Glasgow Cat Centre. On arrival, one of our Rehoming and Welfare Assistants will sit with you to discuss the information sent to you and answer any questions you may have. Our reception area is fairly small, so we ask for limited people at the appointment.
You’ll receive a follow up call a few days after the adoption to make sure everything is going well and for us to answer any questions you may have. We will contact you again a few weeks after adoption by email to make sure your new cat has settled in. If you need us at any other times, please do not hesitate to contact us by phone or email.
