Meet Buddy, a gentle 8-year-old tabby who is searching for a loving home where he can truly feel safe and cherished.

Buddy may be a little shy when he first arrives and will likely need some time to settle in, often choosing a quiet hiding spot while he gets his bearings. But with patience and kindness, his sweet nature begins to shine. Once he trusts you, Buddy will come forward for fuss and affection, enjoying those calm, reassuring moments by your side.

Buddy does have some fur loss, caused by allergies, but on a simple diet this seems to now be under control.

Buddy is looking for a peaceful home where he can be the only pet, with no dogs and children aged 8 or over. A quiet location away from busy roads and railways is important so he can relax and feel secure.

He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to start his next chapter. Buddy just needs someone to give him the time and love he deserves.

A safe, secure, quiet room to start off in would be ideal for Buddy. A room where he can have a separate area for food and water. For a litter tray placed as far away as possible from his food and water. For somewhere to hide, access to a high spot where he can view his surroundings, a suitable place to sleep or, ideally, a choice of them, a scratching post and a few cat toys and space for him to play. We would recommend a Feliway diffuser in his room, as he will likely hide away for a few days when he goes to his new home.
