adoption
At Meow Cat Cafe Essex LTD, our primary mission is to find loving, permanent homes for all our cats. We serve as a crucial stepping stone in their journey toward the safe and secure future they deserve.
Over the past three years, we’ve gained invaluable experience in feline care, including important lessons on illness prevention and treatment. As a result, we’ve refined our adoption program to ensure that every cat leaving us is in the best possible health.
Not all of our available cats are up for adoption at all times. To maintain their well-being, we open and close adoptions in phases. Below, you’ll find details on the cats currently looking for homes.
By managing adoptions this way, we maintain a closed colony, offering our cats a more stable and protective environment. Keeping them with us a little longer also allows us to better understand their personalities and needs, ensuring they find the perfect match.
Our dedicated adopters, who have spent significant time and effort nursing these cats back to health, will now be responsible for conducting adoption checks. It’s only fair that those who helped them on their journey have a say in choosing their forever home.
Some of the available cats are ready for direct adoption, meaning they come straight from the UAE or previous homes. In these cases, meeting the cat in advance may not be possible. However, whenever possible, we strongly encourage adopters to visit and interact with the cat first, because personality always matters more than appearance.

🐾 Meet Spots & Karla: The Best Friends Looking for a Home Together! 🐾
✅ Healthy, Vet Checked & Dewormed
✅ Fully Vaccinated
✅ FiV and FeLV Negative
✅ Neutered & Microchipped
✅ Est. DOB - October 2024
Spots and Karla are a bonded pair who have been through so much and deserve a loving home together. Spots’ Story: Spots was rescued from an industrial area in Dubai with his mother and siblings. Sadly, he and his mum were the only ones who survived. His mother has since been adopted in the Netherlands and is thriving. Spots grew up in foster care, where he formed a beautiful bond with Karla.
Karla’s Story: Karla was found with an eye injury, which has now fully healed. She joined the same foster home as Spots, and the two became inseparable. The pair spent some time at Meow Cat Cafe, but it became clear they’re happiest in a home environment without other cats. Moving to a foster home together has worked amazingly well, and now they're ready to find their forever family.
Their Personalities:
✨ Spots - A cheeky, food-obsessed boy who will absolutely sneak a snack if you’re not looking! He’s playful, affectionate, and guaranteed to make you laugh.
✨ Karla - A brave little climber who loves to perch up high and observe the world. She’s sweet, confident, and adores her best friend Spots. Every evening, they cuddle up together, grooming each other and settling in for the night. They are incredibly playful and would make wonderful companion cats for a household with no other pets.
If you’re looking for available cats with wonderful, unique personalities, Spots and Karla might just be the perfect match. 💛🐾
OLIVIA

🐾 OLIVIA🐾
Olivia is a gentle, sweet-natured cat originally from Greece and rescued by the ARC Animal Sanctuary. While she has a loving temperament, she is quite shy and has found the café environment challenging.
We are therefore hoping to find her a calm, understanding forever home. Olivia will need time and patience to build trust, so her new home should be a quiet household with children aged 16 and over, and she must be the only cat in the household.
✅ Fully Vaccinated
✅ FIV/FELV negative
✅ Neutered & Microchipped
✅ Spayed
Olivia is one of the many available cats eager for a loving home at Meow Cat Cafe! 🏡 Please send us a message or fill out the adoption form if you are interested in adopting her! 💓
