Welcome to our Cat Gallery archive - showing more photos of cats we have rehomed in the past.

Tortie

Unimaginatively-named Tortie was a real character! An explosion of energy and playfulness. Given to us once again as a result of owner-allergy (a problem which seems sadly to be more and more common), we were sorry to lose her as she kept us entertained for hours. Our committee meetings can drag on sometimes - but there was never a dull moment after Tortie sprang into the room.

Moonboots & Baffie

Delilah (aka Moonboots) & Baffie were two of four beautiful long-haired cats who came to the AHT from the Alexandra Park area after their owner died in tragic circumstances.

These poor cats were traumatised by their loss and the move from their home, and it was days before they started eating properly. Happily they all found new homes quickly - being such gorgeous and affectionate animals.

Charlie

Charlie was an FIV cat (cat version of HIV) - and in need of a special owner or family who could give him a loving home.

Fortunately there are still some special people in the world: a wonderful woman who works with refugees in the Kings Cross area took on this feline refugee as well. Not only that - but she also pledged a monthly donation to the AHT. It's lovely to know that Charlie can start life afresh now - and surely he will show his new owner how grateful he is for her kindness.

Tortie

An East London couple were able to offer her a new home - with the big garden she so desperately wanted!

Carmen

Carmen was approximately 10 months old and rescued as a timid kitten by the AHT. Although she started out as a handful, with a lot of help she became one of our most affectionate and playful cats. She could always be quite nervous so again was not looking for a home with small children.

Liz from Walthamstow took on Carmen with no regrets: she has settled very well with her 2 other cats.

Coco

Coco was 7 years when he was given to AHT - feeling very neglected due to his owners relocating abroad. He was a very calm and gentle character - very much a family pet.

The Daltons, from Enfield, fell for his charms and he is now a much-loved addition to their family of 5 children, 2 dogs, 3 rabbits and various other animals.

Georgie

Georgie was approximately 6 weeks old when he was first rescued as a timid kitten by the AHT. He was then homed, but unfortunately - through no fault of his own - returned recently to the cattery at the age of 18 months.

Quiet, but playful, he was offered a home by Sue from Enfield. She reports that, while very shy at first, after several weeks he is now finding his paws in his new house.

Dolly

Dolly was one of our old dears (approximately 11 years old). She and Tango (below) were abandoned last year and were with the AHT a record time. Poor Dolly had a damaged eye although she was otherwise very healthy. She was a truly affectionate character, just desperate for some love back.

Fortunately her story had a happy ending (see below).

Tango

This took some time, but finally Ivy, a retired lady from Palmers Green, took pity on our 2 stalwarts and now they are her dearest treasures.

Star

Star didn't stay so long at AHT. Initially abandoned after she had served her purpose of producing a litter of kittens, she arrived with us as a youngster. Called "Star" by her rescuer, simply because she was one - she was a lovely, loving animal who got on with cats, dogs, children and anyone who gave her some attention.

Quickly snapped up by local lass Elaine, she has fallen on her paws this time round!

Puss

Poor Puss, our home-page pin-up, was with us several months. She was not a youngster (approx. 8 years old) and was never very happy around all the other cats. She was left behind when her owners moved away, and arrived at AHT in a very sorry state with her hair falling out due to a flea allergy.

She made a full recovery and finally caught the eye of Mr Stephens from Chingford, another senior citizen. He reports that, although she is still very shy, Puss likes a bit of fuss now and then. We are sure she is now very much enjoying a quiet life away from noise and other cats.

Tash

Tash was trapped as a timid when he was approximately 6 weeks old. He started out quite a feisty little character but over the next few weeks at AHT, tamed to be an affectionate little guy.

Dave, from Tottenham, took to Tash straight away and offered him a home. As you can see, he has very distinctive markings and a cheeky face. He was a bit mischievous and will no doubt give his new owner hours of amusement.

Sunshine

Most people have a cat who becomes the special cat of their lives. It may be their first, it may be the one who's with them the longest, it may be the animal who is a comfort in times of trouble, or simply a cat who brings joy through the force of his or her personality.

Sunshine was such a cat. Nothing out of the ordinary in terms of looks, he nevertheless became the dearest possession of a lady who was always a great friend of the AHT.
