The photos and the update from Mojo's new owner says it all !!!!!

'He is my deeply loved constant shadow and has a such a beautiful soul & personality
Many thanks once again'

Mojo was bought in from the street - no owner could be found, not microchipped not neutered - sad and injured. Like so many of these lovely street cats they just need a helping paw to get back on track. Which is what he got from the Community, Swansea Cats and Kittens Volunteers and his lovely new owner.

He has definitely got his Mojo Back 😍

Apollo and Bentley were recently adopted and we received this lovely update -

"After this vet check we are going to start introducing them outside as they are now really comfortable around the whole house. Apollo loves a cuddle and cries at your feet to pick him up. Bentley will now sometimes jump on my lap for a cuddle but loves a fuss on the floor. He is getting much better at letting me pick him up - as soon as he’s in my arms he relaxed and purrs. Apollo has a much louder purr like a tractor. He is more inquisitive and confident than Bentley but I’m so glad we kept them together as Apollo has 100% helped to bring Bentley out of himself. They love to play together and with play fight and chase each other round the house. It’s amazing how quickly they have become integrated into the family like they’ve always been with us 🥰"

A great day for servicing some of our traps! 🛠️🐱

It is incredibly important that our equipment is kept in tip-top condition.

There is honestly nothing more frustrating when trying to TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) a colony than a trap failing to trigger.

Picture this: a cat you’ve been trying to track down for days finally walks into the trap... only to gobble down the food and casually saunter back off into the bushes! 🙀💔

So today, these traps are getting a thorough service and clean, ready to be put right back into action next week.

If only it was as easy to catch community cats and ferals as it is my own cats, who happily saunter in while they are being mended and go straight to sleep!

Each trap and cover costs us about £150 so taking good care of them is vital to making sure we can keep helping as many cats as possible.

Thank you all for your ongoing support of our TNR work

Could you be Hank's purrfect home?

You found me! I'm just the cat you're looking for. I'm handsome, gorgeous, gentle, friendly, loving, cuddly and all-round lovely. Look no further.

Sweetheart Hank was found abandoned and struggling to survive, he wasn't a street cat so wasn't coping out alone. But now he's in our care he is thriving! Hank is just lovely…he's sweet-natured, gentle and would make such a great companion.

He's fine with other cats and is currently sharing a cattery pen with his pal Cinnamon from the same owner who abandoned them.

Hank and Cinnamon can be homed together or separately.

He hasn't lived with dogs before, but he's a chilled cat so may adjust to life with a welcoming dog. Hank was already neutered and chipped and is now vaccinated too. He's good to go!

Hank should be fine with children who know to be gentle. He's such a loving puss who deserves his happy ever after.

✨ UPDATE ON IOLO ✨

In April, young Iolo came into our care during a routine TNR (trap, neuter, return) carried out by one of our volunteers. But once he arrived at the vet, it was clear something was very wrong.
He was weak, lethargic, and struggling to breathe with rapid, shallow breaths.

He was given immediate life saving treatment, and once stabilised, the vets began running tests to find out what had made this young cat so desperately unwell. Eventually a diagnosis was made:

FIP – Feline Infectious Peritonitis.

A diagnosis that used to mean certain death.
FIP is notoriously difficult to diagnose and even harder to treat. But in recent years, new antiviral medications have changed the outlook — with success rates of around 85%.
The downside?
Treatment is extremely expensive, takes up to 3 months, and requires a fosterer willing to give medication every single day and monitor symptoms closely.

Iolo is a gentle, sweet natured boy who deserved a chance.
But the financial cost was huge.
The emotional cost was huge.
And there was always the fear that treatment might not work.
We chose to give him that chance.

We took a leap of faith — trusting that our funds would stretch, that our fosterer could manage the demanding regime, and that the treatment would save his life.

Our incredible fosterer has cared for him every step of the way.
And the wonderful team at Swansea Cat Clinic Veterinary Richard, Owain and the Team have supported and guided his treatment throughout.

And yesterday… we got the news we had been hoping and praying for:

✨ IOLO’S BLOODS ARE NORMAL — HE IS CURED OF FIP! ✨

After a couple more weeks weaning him off steroids, Iolo will be ready to find his forever home.

At Swansea Cats & Kittens, we always try to give every cat the best chance we possibly can taking vets advice — young or old, feral or domestic. Every single one deserves help in its own way.

And it’s because of your support that we were able to save Iolo’s life.

Iolo is living proof of what compassion, teamwork and community support can achieve.

PLEASE SHARE to give other owners hope if their cat is diagnosed with FIP

UPDATE

Many of you will remember the mum and five kittens who ran across the road in front of one of our volunteers on the morning of our sponsored walk. It was a frightening moment, followed by an incredible rescue effort.

One month later, thanks to the dedication of our fosterers and volunteers — all six have been vaccinated, microchipped, health‑checked and matched with loving homes.

The kittens are now settling in with their new families, and today their mum Katya began her new chapter on a smallholding.

She will have acres of safe land to explore, chickens, cows and gentle dogs for company, and a peaceful life now that she’s been neutered and no longer has to raise litter after litter of pesky kittens.

From a dangerous roadside to a life full of safety, space and love.
Another little family transformed.

How has no one fallen in love with beautiful Tutu and adopted her?

She was not chosen at the recent Homing Day - she didnt show herself off becasue she didn’t really want to be there - she would have rather been sitting in a sunny windowsill watching the world go by.

We're baffled! Tutu is gorgeous, friendly, gentle, loveable and all-round lovely. She came to us when her beloved owner had to move to accommodation which didn't accept cats.

Sweetheart Tutu is a quietly friendly cat who enjoys gentle fuss and company. Tutu would make an ideal cat for someone who is looking for a sweet feline companion.
Her fosterer adores her and says whoever adopts beautiful Tutu will be ‘very, very happy’.

Tutu is spayed, fully vaccinated and microchipped; Tutu had been well looked after by her previous owner. Tutu has her funny little ways and routines - she's not partial to breakfast, but loves a late night supper! She'd suit a quiet home where she's the only pet, but should be fine with older children who know to be gentle.

Tutu is such a dear little cat, who we hope will soon be the centre of someone’s world again very soon.

Please don't pass her by.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who’s been dropping off out‑of‑circulation and foreign coins and notes — you’re turning forgotten change into food, warmth, and vet care for our rescue cats and kittens.

We have sold some coins individually to coin collectors (You never know what you will find is you collect coins), sold euros and other in circulation coins and have sent bundles of coins off to be valued
THANK YOU - we are making sure that we are getting the best prices for each type of coin donation :-)
