WELCOME TO BEXLEY AND DISTRICT BRANCH 01322 611911

On 14th June, we had a visit from Howbury Tumblers. For their citizenship award, they had to help others and the children and parents collected cat food and other items to donate to us. The family of 3 loved the extra attention and the children had impeccable manners and behaviour - a credit to their parents and teachers!

| We are a small, but busy group with 19 pens, run entirely by volunteers. We always welcome new friends to socialise the cats, donate food, bedding, scratching posts etc., or even give a gift of money however small or large. We would like to thank everyone, for donating food/litter/toys, for donations of money, giving goods for us to sell, and to all our wonderful socialisers who we could not do without. We really do appreciate this extra help. A very big thank you. |

OLDER CATS
We have a number of older cats needing loving home! Please do not overlook them as they have so much to give, and do not deserve to be passed over and left in a pen for many months.
