Urgent Cat Food Appeal

Tuesday 19th June 2012 10:00 AM

The Centre cares for 100 cats daily either in the Centre or in foster care. The increasing amount of cats and kittens coming through our doors has really impacted on our food supplies; we have hardly any biscuits and have very little meat. With lots of hungry mouths to feeds we are appealing for cat food donations to help us care for the cats and kittens in our centre.. We would be very grateful for kitten, adult and senior wet food and any brand of biscuits, we also use a lot of sensitive cat meat which can be bought from our Centre. Thank you
