More about YoYo
Yoyo is a lovely little cat who may take a moment to come out of her shell, but once she’s comfortable, she’ll be right there making up for lost time!
Yoyo can be a little shy when you first meet her, so she’d love someone who is happy to let her settle in at her own pace. But underneath that initial reserve is a wonderfully affectionate girl with a very special way of showing you she cares. When Yoyo decides you’re her person, prepare yourself for the Yoyo head-bump! She absolutely loves enthusiastically bumping her head against people’s faces for affection - a wonderfully adorable habit that’s guaranteed to make you smile. Once she gets going, there’s no stopping this little love-bug!
With a name like Yoyo, perhaps it’s no surprise that she may take you on a little up-and-down journey at first - shy one moment, then suddenly right back for another head bump! But give her time, patience and plenty of love, and you’ll get to see her lovely personality shine.
Yoyo will require outside access via a cat flap if owners work full-time so she can come and go as she pleases, or rather, Yoyo-ing in and out!
If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Yoyo, you can e-mail our rehoming team on bowcat.rehomers@battersea.org.uk to register your interest.
We ask every customer to first complete our online form to discuss an individual animal, so if you have not filled in our form yet you can find the details on how to do so here (https://www.battersea.org.uk/rehome/cats).
Please be aware we have a large amount of interest in rehoming our animals, so we are only able to contact those who are a match for the cat you have contacted us about.
Rehoming FAQs
Here at Battersea, we assess all of our cats individually and create a rehoming profile for them. To ensure successful matches between people and pets, we use a combination of extensive rehoming experience, our staff expertise and the information you provided in your rehoming form. Once you complete your online registration, you’ll receive a confirmation email to let you know that we have everything we need to begin our matchmaking process, as well as the next steps of the process.
This may not always be the cat you thought it would be, which is why we ask that you see the registration form as a way of registering your interest in rehoming, not an application for a specific animal. We’re experts in making sure we find the right home for our cats and the right cat for your home.

Once you’ve completed our online registration form, we’ll handle the rest. Your rehoming registration will be open for up to three months, and in that time, we’ll do our very best to try and match you with a pet that best suits you and your lifestyle. It can take a bit of time for us to try and match you with a pet – but we promise it’s time well spent. We’re committed to getting to know every animal at our centres before finding a match that works for our cats and for you wherever possible.
If we are not able to match you with a cat within three months, we’ll let you know and offer guidance to help you continue your search beyond Battersea.

Our rehoming fee is £100 for cats (over six months), £130 for kittens (under six months) or £180 for a pair of cats and £225 for a pair of kittens. We accept cash or debit/credit card as payment (we are unable to accept cheques). The fees include a full vet and behaviour assessment, microchipping, flea and worm treatment, neutering, initial vaccinations, starter pack of food and four weeks of free Petplan insurance. Each cat also goes to their new home with their own blankets and a favourite toy, such as a knitted mouse.
It’s important to consider not just the initial cost of getting a cat or kitten, but the regular cost of insurance, food, equipment and fees at your local veterinary centre so that you are fully prepared for the financial implications of owning a cat.
