Whereas strolling round Worcester Park, you could come throughout a seemingly atypical home, with a number of cats lounging within the driveway. These pleasant felines are residents of the ‘Ginger Cat Home Safety’, which I had the pleasure to go to final week.
14 years in the past, June and her late husband received their first rescue cats,
which led to a single rescue room 10 years in the past, and now a well-liked rescue house, favoured by many over large shelters for his or her private service. Amazingly, the rescue is self-funded because of beneficiant donations and occasions organised by the volunteers, which I like to recommend to anybody within the space – the following one being a Christmas Bazaar on the twenty sixth of November on the Willow Tree Pub (KT4 7ED).
As a cat lover, assembly June whereas being surrounded by kittens made me reluctant to go away – nonetheless, the reality is these cats have been given away or deserted, and are searching for a loving house. The rescue helps an incredible quantity of round 250 cats a yr, nonetheless, there are lots of others able to be rescued. June knowledgeable me “the complete results of the pandemic are solely being felt now” as individuals return to their busy work schedules, “now we have had many individuals dumping cats outdoors our home, as they’ll not afford them, and lots of rescues are full and can’t take any extra cats in”.
The rescue urges individuals to undertake, with so many cats to select from – whether or not you might be searching for a enjoyable, playful kitten, or an older, loving cat, why purchase when you’ll be able to assist a cat in want? Keep in mind, in case you are contemplating adoption, ask your self “when you can afford all the things that comes with it”, to keep away from extra cats ending up at full rescues.
