Rescue cats for adoption and rehoming in and around Cardiff

The cats here are with All Creatures Great and Small, an animal sanctuary at Church Farm, Llanfrechfa, near Cwmbran, about 14 miles north east of Cardiff and about 5 miles from Newport, which shares this listing. Each profile links to the sanctuary, and you apply with them: we don't rehome cats ourselves.

Cats Protection runs the Cats Protection Wales Cat Centre at Bryncethin, near Bridgend, and a volunteer branch for Cardiff and the Vale. We don't list their cats, so search Cats Protection's own site.

All Creatures Great and Small asks a rehoming donation of £99 for a cat aged 12 months or more and £120 for a kitten under 12 months, towards vet treatment, neutering and flea and worm prevention, and every adopter gets 4 weeks' free insurance.

Cats Protection's Wales Cat Centre charges £80 for an adult cat or £100 for a kitten.

Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Cats Protection says you can expect to pay £80 to £120 on average for an adult cat and £100 to £120 for a kitten, varying between its branches, and Blue Cross fees start from £150 for cats aged 4 months to 7 years. The fee usually covers neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations, and each rescue confirms its own fee.

Expect a form, a meeting and a home visit before a cat goes home (All Creatures Great and Small's adoption process).

• Form, meeting, home check. All Creatures Great and Small starts with its "Perfect match form" or a phone call, then a meeting at the sanctuary and a home check, and books an adoption date once the check is passed.
• Renting? All Creatures Great and Small asks for your landlord's written permission by email if you rent.
• Advice afterwards. All Creatures Great and Small offers advice for the rest of your pet's life once it is home.
