Do you remember the story we posted last October about the holdall kittens abandoned near Cats Protection’s National Cat Centre in East Sussex? We're pleased to tell you that we've found loving new homes for all three cats.

Sammy was found stuck in railings in Gosport, Hampshire. The poor kitten had burnt paws, singed whiskers and was covered in fleas. Gosport Branch Co-ordinator Chris Scott-Reid took Sammy in and ensured he was seen promptly by a vet.

Pitifully thin and grubby, Duke was found wandering around a council rubbish dump in autumn 2011. A veterinary check revealed there was nothing seriously wrong with him; his hard lifestyle had simply taken its toll.

Our Exeter Axhayes Adoption Centre is searching for a new owner for a cat that lost his foster home in a flood. Felix, who has been in the centre’s care for a year, was until recently enjoying home life with Fosterer Diane.

Sometimes one of our branches is preparing to take a cat into care when someone steps in to rehome them. That’s just what happened with Mya (now Katya), the Glasgow factory cat.

Our Ipswich Branch is looking after Scrappy, Dusty and Rusty; a litter of five-week-old kittens saved by workers at a landfill site on 6 November.

Staff at Cats Protection’s National Cat Adoption Centre are caring for three kittens left for dead nearby, after the five-month-old cats were discovered by walkers earlier this month.

With just one day to go until National Black Cat Day, we thought we’d meet some of the darker cats in our care. Will you be the loving new owner these beautiful black cats need?

A Cats Protection branch has homed four kittens found nestled in a plant pot. Our Stoke & Newcastle Branch was called out to a rented house in early September – the tenants had been feeding a stray cat then discovered her litter in their yard.

Looking at Baggypuss today, you wouldn’t guess at his past life as a starving stray, pushed away by people in a bus queue as he searched for scraps.
