Meet Mila

Mila is a beautiful tabby-and-white girl with a soft heart and a quietly affectionate nature. After tragically losing her only owner, Mila has found herself at Thornberry—confused, grieving, and trying her best to adjust to life in the cattery! At first glance, Mila may seem shy or reserved or even a little sassy, but don’t be fooled—she’s a slow burner with a secretly chirpy side! Once she begins to feel safe and secure, her true personality starts to shine. She’ll roll around on her tummy, offer sweet little face bumps, and chat away with the loveliest chirps to those she trusts. She’s not timid through and through—just a sensitive girl who takes her time finding her footing! Mila enjoys quiet companionship on her own terms, and she would love nothing more than to curl up on a windowsill near her human once she’s settled, watching the world go by in peace. She isn’t demanding—but she’ll let you know when she’s ready for affection with her signature head boops and gentle charm. Mila would thrive in a calm, indoor-only, adult-only home. She needs a quiet environment with patient, understanding humans who’ll let her settle in her own time. She also needs a space where she can feel safe, loved, and unpressured—eventually blossoming into the chirpy, affectionate cat she really is! Cats like Mila can sometimes get overlooked—but the deep, meaningful connection you gain when you give a cat like her a second chance is truly special. If you believe you can offer Mila the love and home she deserves, please enquire.

The adoption process

Application
If you see an animal on our website that you are interested in adopting, you should fill out an Animal Enquiry form. This gives us more details about yourself and your lifestyle to make sure you are a good match for each other. If we get multiple requests for one animal, we will consider them all and choose the most suitable home to match it to a new owner. This will allow everyone interested a fair chance of adopting it
First meeting
If your application is successful, we will invite you for a first meeting. Here, you and the animal will meet each other and see how you get along. Following on from this, there may be more meetings and you can introduce other pets as required.
Home checks
Home checks are required for every dog before we set the adoption date. This was done physically pre-Covid but we now ask for videos and photos. We need to be sure the home environment is suitable for that dog and the garden is secure. If dogs/rabbits are going to live with other dogs/rabbits, we will arrange an introduction as previously mentioned.
Keep in touch
Every adoption is as unique as each animal. Please remember although sometimes it might seem like a lengthy process, we are doing this to make sure each animal is found the right home for their lifetime.
