The first thing I want to say is THANK YOU to every one who has come to us and rescued a cat in December and January. We have had a record couple of months and lots of cats have been given a second chance of having a happy home!

I also want to say well done to every one at the sanctuary who has worked hard to make sure all our cats go to good homes as quickly as possible.

GREAT NEWS ALL ROUND!!!

And here are my cats of the week - in fact I could not believe how many friendly, loving cats wanted cuddles last night - it was really hard for me to decide who I was going to put on the blog this week.

My first is a great ginger boy who's owners moved and left him..... He is about 6 years old and loves his fuss and food. He is a lovely gentle cat, good with children and other cats. Isn't he just gorgeous with one of the saddest faces I've seen in a while..... A real ginger tom - nice and solid though gentle and cuddly!!



Susie and Kitty are mother and daughter and are just sooooo friendly! They were brought to us as their owner was too ill to look after them as she wanted to, and that love is shown in just what a good job she has done in bringing them up. They are a lovely, sweet pair who love fuss though are very gentle with you. They are good with children and so lovely I was tempted to bring them home with me!!!

Susie is 5 years old and Kitty is 4. This is Susie....... she loves her belly being stroked. I think she was showing off in front of the camera too!



........and this is Kitty. She was very interested in my camera and I just think this is a lovely likeness of her!!


Better be quick - I don't think any of these cats will be here for long!!


Have a good week and I look forward to bringing you more great news from Chestnuts next week.
