A quick update for all you dedicated fans! The fabulous fantastic feline Molly and Kitten have finally found a new home! Kitten's soulful "hug me now! eyes won the heart of their new owners. We hope they are settling in well and are looking forward to hearing how they are getting on next week. Lots of paws of thanks to those of you who have donated towards Mickey's appeal we are getting there! Pictures of Molly and Kitten to follow shortly. TTFN X

Oh Mickey, you're so fine you're so fine you blow my mind, hey Mickey, hey Mickey! Oh Mickey, what a pity you don't understand. You take me by the heart when you take me by the hand Oh Mickey, you're so pretty, can't you understand It's guys like you Mickey Oh, what you do Mickey, do Mickey Don't break my heart, Mickey!

Oh dear It looks like I have some seriously tough competition! The simply gorgeous cat called "Mickey" has stolen my boyfriend's heart and is liable to steal yours too if you allow yourself to come and meet this exceptional four legged friend. Words simply can not describe how gorgeous Mickey is. You really do have to meet him to appreciate the delight of his delicately soft fur and wonderful gentle character. Mickey is waiting for a vital operation which will cost the sanctuary £1000. He was left on the sanctuary porch recently with a note requesting for us to take care of him as his owner could not afford his veterinary care and was being encouraged to put him to sleep rather than treat him. As the sanctuary does not have unlimited funds all the volunteers find it so hard when cats who require extensive medical care are left at the sanctuary and Mickey was the second one in the same week. However we are putting out a strong fundraising appeal to anyone who feels they can donate towards this fabulous cause and if you would like a scrumptious cuddle in return I am sure Mickey (or Ray!) would oblige!

The FAT Boy 2000! A scratch post suitable for Tigers and Lions or my four domestic cats! (recommended to me by the gorgeous "Mittens" Cat who was a long term resident at Chestnuts she loves her fat boy!) It is the largest post I have ever seen which may double up as an "extra" chair should we be short at Christmas!!
Lots and lots of adorable cats and kittens at the sanctuary this weekend. The little lip smacking delight below is part of a fab litter currently residing in Pen 17 who certainly wont hang around for long. There are only two bundles of fur left from the litter and mum as Panda, Domnio and Tokio have all found new homes. How could you resist such adorable balls of fluff?! Thank you so much to Saret and Micheal for doing such an amazing job at fostering. The kittens look fabulously healthy and mum looks like she has been on a spa holiday! (any chance you fancy fostering humans?!). Good luck to Honey, Pepsi, Kipper, Pansey and Kiki. A small appeal to anyone looking to take on an adorable kitten who lost an eye through neglect. "Summer" is a white and tabby three month old bundle of energy looking for either an indoor home with someone at home during the day or with limited access to the outdoors. She likes other cats but is very human friendly so would be fine on her own with lots of human company. Spotting cars on roads is going to be more of a challenge so a quiet peaceful road would be most appropriate with a large garden. And talking of summer lets hope we see some sunshine at some point today!! TTFN x x

We are sad and happy for Lorna, one of our wonderful Saturday Volunteers who is leaving us very soon for the US of A! I know that Lorna will miss us (and the cats!) as much as we will miss her. It will be very hard to say goodbye but I also would advise anyone near her on her last Saturday to frisk her pockets very careful as I fear one or may a dozen of our cutie kittens may go missing! I am afraid it is unlikely they will let you take a kitten in your suitcase no matter how hard you try! We are planning to lock her in the kittens pens for the whole day on her last Saturday as I am sure she will need her fix of kitten love! Thank you so much for all your help!!!

This week at the sanctuary has been incredibly busy so much so I dont think I have had a chance to even sit down once! Mothers and kittens arriving from all corners of the east end of London. The majority of which bought from unscrupulous pet shops. Those people working on the front line of animal welfare do a staggeringly amazing job. I know I could not contend with people with mistreat their pets and still be smiling. If you ever fancy popping into the sanctuary just to see how hard we work please remember we also need energy and a choccie biscuit or two would go down a treat! A special thank you to our fab trapper you really have done a smashing this week always appreciate all your help!! TTFN X

Happy Birthday to me! a BIG thank you everyone for the flowers and perfume was very kind of you all! Anyone would think I like cats from the cards I have got! The M & M twins even managed to write me a card and buy me a present with their kitty pennies! (If your wondering they bought me a grey kitten with gorgeous blue eyes - the cuddly toy type!) How clever are they?! Up to date pictures attached! They had their first vaccinations this week it was a stressful time for all including their adopted mum but they were very brave and it was all over in a matter of minutes. I think they are looking fab! feel free to disagree (not!!!) A few updates from the sanctuary! Tizz has found herself a new home as well as Indie, Suka and Florrie!

We are all starting to feel very concerned for dear old Molly and Kitten they have been with us for a very long time. It would be smashing to arrive at the sanctuary and see them gone. They are looking for a quiet loving home without young children to rest their paws in. Kitten is totally fab in stunningly good condition for 17 years old loves a lap, cuddle, groom and fuss. He is a ginger delight! Molly, Kittens beautiful mother is so pretty to look at! She also adores being on your lap so much so she often kicks Kitten off. At 18 years old their is plenty of energy in her! Both are A1 fit, enjoy fine dining and the occasional cat nap! A BIG thank you to all our fabulous volunteers, you have to deal with some very stressful awful situations. We really do appreciate your calmness and dedication to ensure that humanity wins through. It is endearing to know their are so many good kind people to outweigh the rest. Thank you. Paws from the cats in your care.
