Part 2...dog hamper draw.
Drawn by Gladys from Ingleside Cat Shelter.
Today had the January Hamper ticket draw....we are pleased to say that the overall money raised from both the Christmas Tombola and Dog and Cat Hampers was Β£198.76.
The money raised will be split between the Guide Dogs for the Blind, Fen Bank Greyhound Sanctuary and our Stray Fund.
Thank you to everyone who has taken part.
The video is in 2 parts...part 2 to follow....
Back home after being missing for 4 years !
We are pleased to be able to share one of our nurses Sam's wonderful story about her cat Trevor.
He went missing 4 years ago and she had given up all hope of finding him.
However this week she had a phone call from the microchip database control centre informing her that Trevor had been taken into another local vet's surgery as a stray.When they scanned him a microchip was found so they were able to contact Sam as she had kept all her contact details up to date.
He seems to be fit and well so someone must have been feeding him and he was found not too far away from where Sam lives.
This is a heart warming story and shows the importance of having cats microchipped and MAKING SURE THE CONTACT INFORMATION IS KEPT UP-TO-DATE.
Also please take a stray cat if found 'hanging around' to your local vet's to check for a chip so they can be reunited with their owners. They may be lost and trying to get back home.
Next year from June 2024 it will be compulsory to have your cat microchipped so please remember this story as a reason to do it also !

This beautiful girl is Emily and she is looking for someone to love her, not just today but every day!
Emily is a very affectionate, middle-aged cat who would like a home where she can safely go outdoors during the day if she chooses to.
She could probably live with other friendly cats and possibly very cat savvy, calm dogs. Sensible, calm children should be fine too π
If you are interested in adopting Emily please email Jo-anne with your address and details at [email protected] and she will get back to you ASAP.
Thank you π
