A GOOD MONTH FOR REHOMING!
August has been a very good month, we have rehomed over 40 cats and kittens!! It is lovely to see so many go off to their new homes, it makes it all worthwhile.
However, sometimes you feel you are fighting a losing battle, especially as regards the kittens. With so many in rescue, it is still the "less pretty" ones that get left behind. They are all so lovely, but get overlooked all the time. Don't get us wrong, we have rehomed a number of black and black/white kittens, but it is the tabbys, gingers, torties, that go first. Why?
Also, you have people "selling" kittens on gumtree and facebook. And people still do not understand (or want to understand) why this is so wrong. Letting their cat have litter after litter just so they can make a few pounds and you get the colour of kitten you want. And what makes it more difficult to understand is the amount people are paying for these kittens! They have had nothing done, no flea/worming treatments, no microchip, no vacciantions and no neutering. All rescue kittens have this done and for only a few pounds more. So why do people do it??
There is a real problem in rescue with the number of unwanted/abandoned cats, kittens born outside, etc. So please support the rescues.........ADOPT DON'T SHOP!! Let's put a stop to unnecessary and irresponsible breeding.
And please, no unnecessary comments about rescues rehoming policies. They are there for a reason, and each application is looked at individually. At the end of the day it is the welfare of the cats and kittens that is the most important consideration.
Finally, just a few pictures of some of the gorgeous kittens we have ready for adoption. Please email us at [email protected] if you are interested. Thank you.
