People normally advertise kittens either 'free to good home' or for a minimal sum in local newspapers pet's sections, or via postcards in newsagents windows.

www.cats.org.uk is the official site for Cats Protection charity. I highly recommend finding your local branch on this site, and viisting them. They are an excellent charity and the cats are well looked after in the shelter. Good luck moggy hunting!

Thank you! as I am a full time worker I am worried that one of these cat protection homes will turn me down

Small ads offering kittens are also likely to be posted in your local veterinary surgery.

If you are set on getting a kitten rather than an adult cat, please can I respectfully suggest that you get 2? If you are out at work all day they will be company for each other, and they are so much more fun when they play together. I have twice got 2 kittens from the Cats Protection League,who do a lot of good work and always have kittens to rehome. They only ask for a small donation and they will need to do a home check but this is very quick. Amazingly, 2 kittens are actually less work than 1 and they will be much happier (as it's quite traumatic for an 8-week old kitten to be taken from its mum and siblings and cope with a new environment)

We got ours through word of mouth - he belonged to a friend (who knew that we wanted a kitten) of a friend, but wasn't getting on with their older cat, and they wanted to pass him on, so we ended up with the most beautiful tabby baby in the world. He had had his first vaccinations from the RSPCA before we got him, and his original owner had already paid for the second set, but as we are not on benefits they were very reluctant to give him his second set of jabs, even though they had already been paid for. If you end up dealing with the RSPCA, you should be aware of their policy of only treating animals whose owners are on benefits, as I certainly wasn't aware of it, and if I hadn't emphasised that the jabs had already been paid for, they wouldn't have wanted to know me!
