None of the cats are declawed at QAWS as personally we find it an act of cruelty. Scratching furniture goes with the territory as you probably know but if you do have a kitty with a habit it can generally be trained out of them!

We do have a chat with any potential adopters but seeing as you have had a cat before and are getting permission from your landlord I don't see why we wouldn't be able to find a furry to suit you and your lifestyle! There is a little it of paperwork to fill out and we ask for an adoption fee to help cover some of our costs.

We don't insist that cats stay indoors - some cats hate being kept in 24/7 but we would help you choose a cat that is more then happy to sit on the sofa all day and curl up on the bed at night!

Please do come down to the shelter to visit our residents as soon as you get the OK from your accomodation (And if they say no - I know of some apartments that do allow pets!!).

Just remember to bring a cat box with you when you visit as there is a high possibility you will leave with one (or two...).
