These cats are searching for a forever home in the North East after facing difficult circumstances so far.

The RSPCA Cat Rehoming Hub works with local RSPCA branches to rehome cats and kittens rescued by RSPCA officers across the Darlington, Stockton, Northallerton, Middlesbrough, and North Yorkshire areas.

The cats have often faced cruelty, neglect and abandonment or sad situations where their owner could no longer care for them or passed away.

From a cattery just outside Darlington and a huge network of volunteer foster carers, it rehomes around 250 cats each year - making it one of the most successful rehoming catteries in the country.

Here are just some of the cats presently looking for their new forever homes at the RSPCA Cat Hub.

Frankie

The Northern Echo:

Frankie is a black and white adult male cat, around 5 years old.

He is a handsome large tom cat, but shy and nervous, whose confidence is slowly improving in foster care.

He has gradually accepted strokes and generally prefers male company, as he pops out of his cat tree for an ear tickle every time his male fosterer walks by. 

Frankie is looking to be the only animal in an adult-only household with owners who will give him time and space for his character and confidence to emerge.

In time he may want to go outside, but only into a catio.
