Have you ever considered fostering a cat? I have just seen Poppy, a beautiful cat who needs a loving home. Poppy has been rescued by the St Albans Cat Protection and is just one of many stray cats who need a caring family.

 

However, as St Albans CP are dependant on volunteers, fosterers and financial help, they are now on ‘amber alert’ as they cannot take in any more cats. They say “All our foster pens are full up. We can only take in as many cats as we have volunteers with pens to take them in.”

Debra of CP St Albans states, “The more cats we have, the higher the vets bills.” Debra and collegues are holding a fundraising dinner to raise money for their heated pens.The dinner will be held in the Savanna Restaurant of the Black Lion Hotel on 28th September. Tickets are £35 and include a welcome drink, 3 course meal, coffee and entertainment, followed by a silent auction. Sounds good? Then phone Linda on 01727 825306 or email stalbanscp@hotmail.co.uk. Their website provides a great deal of information including details of Poppy and other cats awaiting fosterers, www.stalbans.cats.org.uk

As a cat owner myself, I would say “Go for it!” We did and have never looked back since.
