Biryani is a quiet, thoughtful girl who prefers to sit back and observe the world around her. She’s always curious about what her humans are doing and likes to keep a watchful eye on things, even if she’s not quite ready for hands-on affection just yet. While she may occasionally come over for a cautious sniff, Biryani currently prefers her personal space and would suit someone happy to let her build confidence in her own time.
She’s very much a slow-burn cat — the kind of companion who will need patience, understanding, and a calm adult-only home where she can truly blossom. One thing that really helps bring out her confidence is the company of other cats, and she may enjoy living with a calm, friendly feline companion. At this stage, she’s more of a happy cohabiter than a lap cat, and that’s perfectly okay.
Biryani absolutely loves treat toys and cardboard boxes, which are guaranteed ways to win her interest and keep her entertained.
Once fully settled, Biryani will require safe access to the outdoors where she can explore at her own pace.
Biryani also comes with an important medical consideration. Some cats within her extended family have been carriers of mycoplasma, meaning she could potentially be a carrier too. Because of this, she could either be rehomed as a solo cat (with no other cats or dogs in the home), or she could live with another “curry cat” or an existing friendly cat, but this would be at the adopter’s discretion and understanding of the potential risks.
For the right person, Biryani will be an incredibly rewarding companion — quiet, curious, and full of potential, just waiting for someone patient enough to let her shine.
You can help us care for our animals by fundraising. We are always grateful when individuals choose to raise money for our animals as any contribution goes a long way and there are so many ways you can do it!
There are a few simple steps to go through before welcoming your new pet into your home.

More InfoOnce we have received your completed form, one of our animal welfare team members will contact you to arrange either a physical or virtual home visit before offering a viewing either at our Branch office, at the fosterer, or at the private boarding establishment the animal is being housed at.
We conduct a physical/virtual home check and once this has been passed, you can arrange to view the animal at a time that works best for you and the fosterer. Our home checks are conducted by our Animal Welfare Team who will contact you directly to arrange a time that suits you. Home checks are a common practice when adopting from most animal welfare organisations, and are done as part of our duty of care to ensure our animals find an appropriate home, so please do not be offended when asked to arrange one. They are nothing to worry about and our staff are suitably trained to make sure the process is as relaxed as possible – they are also a great chance for you to ask any questions you may have about your potential new pet.
Once the home visit has been conducted, we will arrange the adoption process to be completed at a time suitable to you and the fosterer. Please note: as part of your adoption from us, your new pet will be neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and will have received internal & external parasite treatment. If the animal is too young at the time of adoption, we will supply you with a voucher for neutering and pay for their first vaccinations. You will also be provided with a complete veterinary history of your new pet and 4 weeks pet insurance with PetPlan. This can take up to a week to be compiled so there may be a delay between a home visit being approved and the adoption appointment taking place.
