RESCUING

Cats and kittens come in to us for many reasons.  They are abandoned – owners move away and leave them, some are thrown out because they are pregnant, unwanted kittens dumped in dustbins, cardboard boxes, thrown out of cars.  Sometimes the owner has died, relationship break ups, allergies, new baby or owners who get kittens then after a few short months get bored with them.

CARE
All the cats and kittens are taken into foster homes.  They are given a thorough examination by a vet and any illness, injury etc is treated immediately.  They are given flea and worm treatment and vaccinated.  The ones old enough are neutered. We also microchip them. They will then stay with us until an appropriate new home is found. 

Some cats either due to age or temperament are not able to be homed so they stay with us.  No animal is ever put to sleep except on a vet’s recommendation.
