With the rescue that has the cat. Today the brown cats on this page are with Sunshine Cat Rescue (2), Tails Animal Rescue (2), Chesterfield Animal Rescue (1), Eden Animal Rescue (1), Happy Landings Animal Rescue Centre (1), Hounslow Animal Welfare Society (1) and 1 other rescue. Open a profile and apply to that rescue: each one runs its own application, home check and adoption fee. We don't rehome animals ourselves.

It depends on the cat, not the breed. Most of the 9 brown cats listed in the UK today don't say either way, so ask the rescue. Where a profile says nothing, ask the rescue what age of children the cat could live with.

It depends on the cat, not the breed. Today the rescues mark 4 of the 9 brown cats listed in the UK as able to live with other cats. Where a profile says nothing, ask the rescue.

It depends on the cat, not the breed. None of the 9 brown cats listed in the UK is marked by its rescue as able to live with dogs today. Where a profile says nothing, ask the rescue.

Yes: 1 listing of the 9 brown cats in the UK names a cross or mix in the rescue's breed label, such as Bengal Cross (1). Breed labels on rescue listings are often a best guess, so read each profile.

Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Battersea charges £100 for a cat over six months and £130 for a kitten, 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.

No. We don't list animals for sale. Every brown cat on this page is with a rescue or rehoming centre. Rescues rehome animals rather than selling them, usually for an adoption fee: for example, Battersea charges £100 for a cat over six months and £130 for a kitten. The fee usually goes towards vet work already done, such as neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations. If you searched "brown kittens for sale", the brown cats here are the rescue route: you apply to the rescue and pay its adoption fee, not a sale price.

Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. At the large cat charities, fees for one cat are under £200: Battersea charges £100 for a cat over six months and £130 for a kitten, and Cats Protection says £80 to £120 on average for an adult cat. An animal offered "free to a good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue.

Yes: 6 kittens of the 9 listed in the UK are 12 months or under by their listed age.

Not right now: none of the 9 listed in the UK is aged 10 or over by its listed age. Older brown cats do come into rescue, so check back. Some rescues charge less for older cats: Blue Cross fees start from £100 for cats aged 8 or over.
