Dropped another 168 vouchers into Cats Protection: 7 more cans of cat food for their fosters. If you have any spare, please drop them into your local CPS shop, as most branches are collecting the vouchers now.

(For every 24 vouchers, Felix will donate one free can of cat food to Cats Protection, so if you aren’t using the vouchers please donate them).

Lucky Black Cats?

A pair of elderly gents currently in the Caterham Cats Protection have been brought to my attention. At 11 and thirteen they’ve got years ahead of them (cats can live to over twenty) and are sadly with CP because their owner died.

Tommy, age 11, who loves the outdoors, catnip and tickles, and Panther, age 13, a little on the shy side who would like a garden and sun.

These two charming black cats are looking for somewhere to spend their retirement.

I was surprised to hear people overlook black cats. Growing up in a fishing area of Britain black cats were considered lucky. A friend’s black cat would vanish round the neighbourhood when the weather was bad as the crews’ families tempted him in with food at each house to bring luck to the fishermen and the boats back safely.

Back in August I mentioned a World of Felix offer to donate to Cats Protection in exchange for tokens. I duly sent off my 120 tokens the day I placed the order, glued neatly to the order form so it could go as standard letter.Two months later and they were still “Waiting for tokens”. Oh […]

Just a quick post about rescue cats – well, two in particular. With the recession, a number of pairs of older cats (7 years+) have been left homeless. As you can see from our experiences with Stephen and Matilda, older cats do not simply sleep all the time. In fact, they can be quite active […]
