Brownbaby Brownbaby
Brownbaby has been with me since my days in Lancefield which makes her eight-nine years old. She arrived with her two kits, looking for food and shelter which she got and now she repays me by keeping an eye on any stray mouse that may think of entering the shed where the horses' feeds are kept. She is no cuddle pie but a very nice girl, very much her own cat. She does allow me to pat her and talk to her but sitting on a lap is not her style.

Lucky

Click to launch slideshow enlarge Lucky
Lucky will hopefully live up to her name. She is five years old, all tabby, but this little girl is more on the wild side still, though we have made bodily contact in the form of strokes, which she endures but that is as far as it goes. The first week she flew around in the aviary like a bird as soon as I came near her but there is hope. I will update her listing as she calms down and I am confident that one day she will make someone a lucky owner. Lucky is not my name for her.

Tyson Tyson
Tyson has been with me since kittenhood, he is seven years old, black as the night and I doubt any visitor to the Haven has ever seen him. He is so utterly timid and afraid of people but he likes his old mum, he knows I respect his privacy and we have a close bond, so I guess he stays if he suddenly doesn't decide to change tactics in order to find his own human.

Tyson is proudly sponsored by Cheryl in memory of Cain,
who loved cats.

Benny Benny
Benny, yet another Beveridge cat. He is only young at five years old, is very affectionate but doesn't much like to be picked up but he purrs around my legs like a V8 engine. Unfortunately, I had to have his ears amputated as he as well as Bibi already had cancer on them when I got the siblings. Well, it might not be so bad as something was done about the cancer, but Benny needs to be an inside cat so as the cancer doesn't come back. Please someone, give this little happy chap a home.

Mittens
Mittens
Mittens is an eight-year-old cat, and like all white cats she's very assertive. Mittens has had her ears amputated due to cancer but has healed so well it is unlikely to cause her much concern provided she is kept indoors. Mittens gets along with one cat, loves to play, skidding in the hallway is heaps of fun, stealing food is another pastime, and when she's tired she wants a lap to rest in.

Mittens is proudly sponsored by Pamela Ratcliff

BobbyToo

BobbyToo
BobbyToo is a sprightly young male, very deceiving. He is cuddly and
affectionate, gets along sort of with other cats if free range but put him in a house with another cat and the demon in him comes out. The house is his 'and you shall have no other cats' is his motto. But then again he is enough cat to satisfy a whole family so whoever only wants one cat at a time, BobbyToo is up for grabs.

Goliath
Goliath at six years has been waiting a looong time for a home and why is that? Once he gets to know you, he is a charmer.

Carla Carla
Sweet little Carla at two years is shy around new people but give her a
couple of days and she will win your heart and affection. As her sponsor so rightly pointed out, these shy cats become extremely affectionate once they have learnt to trust their new human and Carla is very affectionate, only she hasn't yet been enabled to show her true potential with anyone but me. Her mother Rhonda found a home recently.

Carla is proudly sponsored by Marg, Drew, Kate, Liam,

Darlene (right) and Bruce enlarge Darlene and Bruce
Darlene and Bruce are very much in love. They met here at the Haven one-and-a-half years ago and they just clicked. Darlene, who's three-to-four years old now, arrived with five little ginger kittens, which I found homes for. Bruce arrived back in May 2001 as a wild kitten. Darlene (ginger) is very sweet and Bruce will allow you to pat him but he clearly prefers his Darlene. They always sleep together, head-butt each other, eat together, sunbake together ... and if I see one I know the other one is somewhere near. This couple I will not separate, I don't believe in tearing lovers apart so, if you want Darlene, Bruce will tag along and vice versa.
