Looking to adopt a cat

Battersea are great, but the place gets very busy at weekends and you may end up waiting for hours to get an appointment for an interview/family assessment.

Celia Hammond will also follow a similar procedure, but tend to come out and do a home visit first, or at least they used to do so.

We were refused a cat by Celia Hammond as we live in Barry Road - as they felt that this road was too busy. I gather they have a policy of refusing to rehome in property is on a major or busy road.

We currently have 3 cats - all whom use the cat flap at the back of the house, they some times go into the front garden but quickly return as do not like the noisy traffic.

Thanks everyone! We ended up adopting a beautiful tabby from CPL last weekend. They were fantastic, did a home visit on the Bank Holiday (that's commitment!) and were great at advising us which would be a good fit for our family & 2 young children. Our new family member has settled in brilliantly and is wonderful with the children. Can thoroughly recommend CPL for anyone else looking to adopt.

    • I hope it's ok to use this thread to ask for advice on a separate issue in relation to TJ Medical Practice. A friend of mine who is registered there has recently been diagnosed with a serious long-term condition. He has been struggling to find a good GP at the practice since the departure of Dr Love and I said I would try to find out which of the remaining GPs other patients have found most capable and sympathetic - particularly for the scenario of overseeing ongoing care for a long-term progressive illness. Is there any particular GP that people would recommend?  Very many thanks.
    • I,m not a fan of Gales; but a lot of food serving premises open on Xmas day , so not unusual, worked in catering for nearly 40 years and staff usually get extra pay… My niece who is in her last year of college & wants to go travelling next summer, is waitressing in a restaurant near where she lives on Xmas day & Boxing Day for £20 per hour to boost her travelling fund. Back in the day I worked New Year’s Day 2000, & had my pay bumped to £50 per hour, happy days (wasn’t forced I volunteered)
    • Hardly strange; arcane perhaps. It used to be a common practice in many towns for the swings, roundabouts etc in parks to be chained up by the council on Sundays, so that they didn’t provide a source of reckless pleasure on the sabbath. The outrage that a cake shop should open on Christmas Day reminded me of this. The policy had pretty much died out in England and Wales by the 70’s but is still in force in parts of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.
    • I would be interested to learn if Gail's hike their prices on Christmas day. I don't go to Gail's (as I prefer Christophers on HM Lane) but if anyone does go and detects a bit of price gouging, please let us all know.
