Contact/organisation details: I am fostering for Furry Friends in Old Coulsdon. Please PM me on here or call Emma on 020 8407 1080/0797 356 9371.
Does the animal have rescue back up?: Yes
Location: Caterham/Old Coulsdon SURREY
Number of groups:1
Group:1
Number of animals:1
Type/Breed/Variety: Scottish Fold Cat
Sex: male
Age(s): Approx 12 years old.
Name(s):Wilfred
Colours: Black
Neutered:Yes
Reason for rehoming: Saved from being euthanased after being found as a stray and assessed as too old to rehome. Wilfred is a cat flu carrier meaning that he cannot be vaccinated as it brings cat flu out in him. He therefore has to go as a housecat.
Will the group be split: N/a
Transport available: Within reason
Other: Wilfred does not like other animals, but adores children!

Here is Wilfred :)

Oh what a darling. I have 2 small children who love cats but 3 other cats. We did home an old FIV boy but at present I don't have the time or space for another cat.

I hope Wilfred finds a suitable home . . . I'm sure he will, there are many out there who care very much and can help.

I really hope he finds someone soon as he has been with us for so long. He is such a cuddly lad with so much love to give.

Mr Wilf is still looking for a home. Please don't overlook him because of his age, colour or condition. He is such a lovely cat, he just wants cuddles and a full tummy <3

I do hope he finds a home soon; older cats are so rewarding. I'm on the wrong side of the Pond or I'd be tempted if my Leia didn't dislike other cats, plus the health bit ... good luck.

Wilfred is still here. I just thought I would explain a little about his illness as it is likely to put people off.

Wilfred is on no long term meds. The only thing that he needs is a course of antibiotics if he becomes snotty which is only rare.

This lad has so much love to give and will repay his new owners in tenfold for giving him a loving home.

I wish we could take him, he's gorgeous. We've got a territorial grey/white young boy though (Dylan) so we couldn't have him :(

Have you been in touch with Rushden Persian Rescue. I know they started out as a Persian Rescue but they take in any breed they also often have a waiting list for cats. It might be worth contacting Patsy as she may know of an ideal home. The website is

If only we could take him but Dylan hates other male cats :(

Is he longhaired or shorthaired (out of curiosity)

Unfortunately we are not able to appeal for transport for Wilfred now. This is because we have found out he does not travel well at all and becomes very stressed. He cannot be sedated because of his breathing problems. He is ok to go short distances, but he cannot go far.
