Two 'beautiful' kittens that have now fully recovered after they were found in a cold and dirty loft are hoping to find a loving new home together.

They are among the rescued animals currently in the care of East Coast Pet Rescue based in Great Yarmouth. 

And after a busy Christmas period, the centre is now open for adoptions again.

A spokesperson said: "We have several animals ready to find forever homes in January, we have others in rescue either recovering from injuries or illness who are not ready just yet."

"Do you have space in your home?"

Sex: Male and Female (brother and sister)

"Figaro and Lotus and brother and sister are around 18 months of age.

"They are shy cats so they will just need a patient home with an owner who will give them time to settle at their own pace.

"They can be rehomed as indoor cats but could have access to outside once they have totally settled and are confident around their new owners.

"They would benefit from being in a quiet adult home.

"These sweet little cats have been waiting for some time and fingers crossed they find their forever home really soon."

"Jess is now ready to find her forever home, after being in our care for some time.

"She is highly affectionate and loves cuddles.

"If left alone for too long she can become anxious so would benefit from someone who is around most of the day, and a nice quiet calm environment.

"We believe she is around seven years old and she has lots of love to give."

Sex: Male and two females

"Flip flop and his two girlfriends Slipper and Sandal are looking for a nice decent-sized pad together.

"Rabbits need plenty of space and a permanent run attached so they can be active when they need to be normally - mostly at dawn and dusk.

"Please talk to us about the size of rabbit enclosure you need, or already have as some can be easily adapted to give more space and the rabbits a good environment in which to thrive."
