Description: Yuki can be described as a cuddly, loving, and friendly snowball. She was rescued from a pet store where she spent all of her life in a small cage.

She is a smart and caring cat, who is still a little underweight due to often being left unfed, but she is very food-driven now. She is an adorable cat who can instantly win your heart with her lovely character and big green eyes and will repay your attention with plenty of love and hugs!

Best suited for: Singles, couples, or families who are ready to love a cuddly feline friend!

Description: As a pup, Woody and his siblings were found alone, dumped on the streets. Because of this, he is now shy and not very comfortable around loud noises and cars. But with further socialisation to build his confidence, a bit of training, love, and patience, he can become the perfect lifelong companion. He is house-trained, gentle, and loves good hugs as well as playing with children. He has a lovely character that we’re sure you’ll fall in love with as soon as you meet him. His brothers Beau and Bandit have already found their forever homes and we hope he will soon too.

Best suited for: Singles, couples or a family who already have a dog, as he enjoys spending time and playing with others.

Bold, confident, and pretty fearless, but likes nothing more than a cuddle. She would be happiest with another dog and a family with or without kids.

Age: 5 years old

Breed: Pomeranian

Description: He’s the cutest little guy to look at, but like so many of his breed, looks can be deceptive. We know from his past ‘keeper’ that he was abused, surrendered, and re-homed through another charity only to be abandoned or lost again. Oats has trust issues as a result of his past and is reactive. He’s a one- to two-person dog and not for the squeamish, as he is scared of the unknown. If you leave him to his own devices, he’ll come round in his own time and when he does, he’ll be your forever friend and the love of your life. Loves his walks and the world outside and his own bed, which is his castle. He also loves food so he can be as good as gold for treats.

Best suited for: A calm home without children or pets.

Notes: Come meet Oats at the next Dog Adoption Sunday (22 March) at Peak Café Bar (9–13 Shelley Street, Soho) between 1.30 pm and 4.30 pm.

To adopt Oats, please fill out an adoption application or email [email protected] for more information.
