They are just as playful and fun as a kitten but a little easier to take care of in so many ways.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeeba is just one of the black cats we have in the care of our Highland and Islands centre looking for a home. She has been with us for 303 days.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis lovely girl but was very timid initially however she has grown in confidence since coming into the centre and now enjoys to come and say hello.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlthough this beautiful girl will come to you if she wants affection we feel a busy household could be a bit too much for her therefore we are looking for a quiet adult-only home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce she has made friends with her new family she would love free outdoor access as she absolutely loves being in the great outdoors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs anyone who has rescued an animal will tell you, these cats will be so grateful for a second chance at a loving home. We\u2019d love to see them all happy and settled with new families as soon as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Anyone interested in rehoming any of these cats can view and apply on our&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/\u00a0www.scottishspca.org\/rehome\/rehome-0\">website<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are&nbsp;seeking the luck of the Irish to find forever homes for black cats in our care this St Patrick\u2019s day.
