Very often. Cats are built for climbing and keep themselves busy with play, so a flat with a cat tree, a sunny window, scratching posts and daily play is plenty for a contented indoor cat. A garden is not needed, and indoor living keeps a cat away from traffic.

Two is often better indoors, especially if you are out during the day. A bonded or compatible pair keeps each other company, plays together and is less likely to get bored alone. If you adopt two, look for cats their rescue says already get along, or a bonded pair, to skip the introduction work.

Not here: we only list cats with rescues, so every indoor cat listed here is adopted for the rescue's fee, which usually covers vet work already done. Whether to buy is your choice. Adopting means the rescue can tell you what it knows about the indoor cat's history and health before you apply. If you decide to buy a pedigree kitten, Cats Protection suggests a breeder registered with a breed association such as the GCCF, and seeing the kitten with its mother at home rather than buying from a video or social media advert.

Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations.

An animal offered "free to a good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. In England, cats must be microchipped before they are 20 weeks old, so ask to see the microchip details.
