A beautiful pair of very much loved cats.

Whilst I do not have a favourite cat in the sanctuary (as I am truly in love with them all) Candy and Elsa's story is indicative of why we as a rescue sanctuary truly exist.

It must be extremely distressing to reach an age when you are no longer able to live independently or allowed to have your own pets, particularly at a time when companionship and familiarity is so important.

Elsa and Candy are absolutely gorgeous. I know that none of us volunteers at the sanctuary could imagine not being able to take care of our own cats and have that feline contact. This pair have clearly been spolit to bits and are very much loved by their owner who has sadly gone into a care home. I am sure she is missing them a great deal and did not wish to part from. We are in contact with her and reassure her that her beautiful friends are doing just fine in our care.


Candy and Elsa are looking to be homed as a pair of cats to quiet accomodation. They have lived a peaceful 7 years together and would be a little apprehensive to go to a family with very young children. They adored being groomed which must be done on a regular daily basis. Candy has a sweet little pink nose and Elsa loves to sweep past your legs swishing her tail as she goes. They prefer to eat out of china bowls and both have their own soft leather beds to rest their immaculate paws on.

A truly wonderful pair of cats looking for a fabulous home. If you think you would be the right home to adopt Elsa and Candy in light of the comments above please visit Chestnut Cat Sanctuary 10.30-2pm 7 days a week. Enquiries to alison@chestnutcatsanctuary.co.uk
