    Has very likely changed my life big time… Never ending as not one day without being asked for the impossible. To help more in need of help by private individuals and other rescues. Like other rescues I lack more space, more money and more time. I learnt a lot during those 25 years about cats and about people. I always made myself busy reading much about nutrition for pets and finding out the outcome of poor quality food. I experimented with various cat food over the years and also water of different ph . I encountered some amazing kind people the last 25 years some I remained friend with. But of course also some not so kind people i felt sorry for. I always feel sorry for people who abuse others, as no doubt they would be happier if they were kind! Sadly ongoing Long Covid has slowed me down and often made me feel as if 100 years old the last few years. Rarely reporting on my cat rescue activities as i need to use my time to get on with helping kitties and no time for chit chat! Also at long last moving on useless possessions into skip after skip. Some of the cats are on waiting lists of rescues that offer vast and safe outdoor space without any neighbours… Thanks again to those of you who have helped me help kitties in need in different ways. Do not take on kitties unless you can offer them a kind forever home please or foster as long as you intend to return the cat!

    Very much those of you who contributed to last monthly donations collected by Suzy P to the amount of £276. This has gone towards the vet bill for an abandoned cat dental treatment that at rescue rate came to £450. I feed the cats mostly wet food as good quality as i can though dry cheaper but not specially healthy for many. The cat situation is worse each day with more people abandoning their pets cats mostly. This week two adorable kittens and mum in a deep ditch on a main road amongst piles of dumped rubbish an example. Not enough rescue spaces for all, only for a small fraction. Never one day without being asked to help some cats in need. Many people cant afford vets’ fees and/or good quality pet food. I am desperate for fosterers and best possible forever homes for cats and pairs of kittens. I used to make reports with pictures about the cats but not enough hours in days and nights to get on with all tasks. Long Covid still not helping. Neighbours who vandalised garden cat room and CCTV and more not helping either. Life is too much of a challenge as it is but when you do your best to help out as many cats in need as possible no words to describe it… So forever moaning! My rewards are 5 star rehoming and kind suitable foster helpers. And of course financial help as low as it might be, it all adds up. Thanks again!

    as Suzy P collected £216 last month from some of you who kindly helped me help rescued cats in need. This paid for a £190 vet bill for a poorly 8 year old cat and the difference went towards the fuel bill. Thank you also for the much appreciated large box of Sheba. Kitten wet food much needed. Fosterers and five star homes more than ever needed for rescued cats. This morning going to try to catch a very poorly scared cat that appeared in someone’s garden in N14 and take him to the vet’s then I will try to get some from N18 mosque that badly need help. The problem is what to do with them after vet visits? Unwanted owned cats on a daily basis. Thank you for your help I cannot do it alone. Equity release on house coming to an end…

    Thank you very much to those of you who contributed to last month’s donations totalling £45 kindly forwarded to me by Suzy P and a large box of Sheba sachets delivered to my house. The amount of cats in need of help is beyond ridiculous. Never one day without at least one demand of help to an unwanted, abandoned, abused or found cat. Right now i was hoping to find a fosterer for a very friendly young male tabby and white who must leave the vet’s having been neutered and virus tested, etc… but no luck and the poor cat will be back on the streets tomorrow. That is one thing i am not good at to put cats back where found after vet’s visits as there are too many of them and nowhere for most. People prefer to adopt kittens rather than cats and rarely keep them as family members for the rest of their lives. So i am forever moaning as rescuing cats is a never ending impossible challenge. It takes all the little energy Long Covid leaves me, all my money and time. I am aware of a 16 year old cat left in very poor condition outside the owner’s front door who does not want to bring him in and is not concerned about his needs and suffering. One example of cause of anger building inside me! Please if you can foster a cat or two do make contact asap.

    The situation is ridiculous! Cats in need of help everywhere. Worse by the day with the compliments of irresponsible owners. All my time and money and space taken by rescued cats. Sadly i can only help a very small fraction. First Xmas season without time to pop in for a drink when offered. No time for myself whatsoever. Long Covid still not helping my efforts. Suitable homes are rare. Suitable fosterers are rare. Thank you so very much to those of you who kindly help sending donations either via Suzy P or directly to me. Every £ helps. At present i feed at least 100 cats regularly distributing food to several garden and street feeders. Rarely one day without being notified of new ones to help at other locations. Wet food very much needed. May 2024 bring you all much good luck and peace !!!
