LoveLands Cat Rescue matches rescued cats and kittens across Essex and Suffolk with loving, permanent homes. Every cat who comes to us has been vet-checked, settled into foster care, and prepared for the next chapter, all we need now is you.
We keep the process simple and personal. No long waiting lists, no red tape, just four steps between you and a cat who’s ready to come home.
Every cat who comes to us is looked after as one of our own. Vet-checked, settled into foster care, and matched carefully with the right home, until they find somewhere to stay for good.
Fill out an adoption enquiry form telling us about your home and your experience with cats.
Every adopter agrees to our mandatory spaying/neutering policy and ongoing age-appropriate medical care.
Every cat is settled with an approved foster carer while they're assessed and prepared for rehoming.
You'll complete an in-person visit with our staff or foster parents, so we can be sure it's the right match for you and for them.

Dozens of cats rehomed across Essex & Suffolk
Everything you need to know before adopting a cat in Essex or Suffolk, from cost to home checks.
Our Adoption fee is £180 with a £60 deposit required. This goes toward the vet care each cat receives before they’re rehomed rather than being kept as profit.
Typically this covers vaccinations, microchipping, flea and worm treatment, neutering, and a full vet health check, plus a short period of free pet insurance to get you started.
It varies cat by cat. A straightforward match can be sorted within a couple of weeks, while a cat who needs more time to settle or has specific needs may take longer. We’d rather get the match right than rush it.
No. Some cats are used to outdoor access and do best with a garden or cat flap, but plenty of our cats are just as happy living indoors. We’ll talk through what each cat needs when you enquire.
Yes, as long as your landlord has given written permission for you to keep a pet. We’ll ask to see this as part of your application.
Yes, all of our adoptions include a home visit or a video call, just to make sure the cat you’ve chosen is a good fit for your home and routine. It’s a conversation, not an inspection.
Usually yes. We’ll ask about your current pets and, where needed, arrange a supervised introduction before the adoption goes ahead, to make sure everyone gets along.
Get in touch with us directly. We can advise on next steps, and if the cat needs rescuing, we’ll help however we can.
