Appeal for Georgie
Help us raise £1,500.
Georgie was diagnosed with bladder stones which must have been very painful and she has had to have them surgically removed. We have set up this fundraising appeal to cover her treatment which has already cost £1,500, as we have had a few cats recently needing a great deal of expensive veterinary care.

Please neuter your kittens!
One of the key reasons for the huge number of unwanted pets and strays coming to our charity, is that people are not neutering them. Neutering your animals has lots of benefits, both for their health and wellbeing. They are less likely to become problem pets due to territorial issues and/or being allowed to breed.
