Well the new year has started with a bang here at GCR.
Yesterday, we had one space in the cattery and three emergencies!
Once again our fantastic fosterers stepped up, so we were able to help all three cats.
Jenny is an older lady, sadly stray. She was being fed and allowed inside by a caring couple, until their landlord got wind of it and banned them from letting her in.
Thank goodness she was rescued and brought to us by Jenny and Em before that horrendous rain set in last night. 😔
Georgia & Ginny were being advertised as free on Facebook. I find it hard to believe in this day and age how people don’t understand the pitfalls of that.
Tinkerbelle was previously severely beaten to the extent that her teeth were knocked out.
Prompting a dash by her rescuer to an emergency vet.
She recovered from that but her owner (who wasn’t responsible for the beating) still didn’t get her the help she needed.
She was then kicked out when her owner disappeared. She was hiding, terrified in bushes and rescued by Dawn.
There’s no way we were going to not help this little one.
She’s almost certainly pregnant and she’s only a baby herself. 😔
She’s now safely in foster with our fabulous Karel.

Welcome to 2025 in cat rescue.
Next week we have a list of vet appointments for:
Toby - Poorly eye
Clarence - Dental work
Jack - Dental work
Mistletoe - Blisters on pads of feet. Possibly dental.
Rosa - Neutering
Karel - Neutering
Natalie & Carol - Neutering
Georgia - Neutering
Jenny - full MOT

We know how generous you already are, but if you could please consider sending us a pound or two for our vet bills, we would be extremely grateful. ❤️

We do charge adoption fees that cover the neutering of adult cats, but all the necessary treatments for poorly cats comes from fundraising or just plain begging 🙏🏻

No amount is too small. We have nearly five thousand followers.
If everyone just sent a pound, we’d be set up for a few months 🤞🏻
Thank you
The GCR team.

That’s another year done and dusted for Glossop Cat Rescue.

We also currently have another 57 cats & kittens in our care.
We have sadly lost 10 precious souls this year. 💔

It’s been a busy, but productive year.
We would like to thank everyone for their love and support.
Our selfless fosterers. Our dedicated volunteers and many of you who have donated food, money, equipment and time.
Here’s to another year and many more successful rescue stories.

Jack Frost
Meet Jack Frost.
Jack came to us just before Christmas. He had sadly been a stray for six years. He was so withdrawn and ‘shut down’ at first, that we were seriously worried.
Fast forward a couple of weeks and what a change!
Inside that depressed little boy was the most beautiful little soul. He rapidly blossomed when he was shown love and affection from our Volunteers. He loves head rubs, chin rubs and cuddles.
We feel that Jack would happily settle with other friendly cats.
He so deserves a loving family and his own happy ever after.
He’s neutered, microchipped and flea/worm treated.
If you would like to meet Jack with a view to offering him a home, please message us.
Home check and adoption fees will apply.

Sydney
Meet Sydney. This beautiful boy is looking for his forever home. He’s a wonderful, friendly, and VERY affectionate boy.
He’s good with children, but we feel he would be best as an only cat.
He’s very active He seems fine with other cats at first. He’s interested in them and is not aggressive but then he gets mischievous and tends to bully then a little. He’s not nasty at all, but the other cats don't enjoy his play fighting as much.
He would suit a family where he gets lots of opportunity to play, climb and burn off some energy.
He wouldn’t be suited as an indoor only cat and isn’t keen on dogs.
Sydney is neutered, microchipped, flea and worm treated.
If you would like to meet Sydney with a view to offering him a home, please message us.
Home check and adoption fee will apply.

Sadly, we have to announce the loss of another special GCR baby.
Bertie came to us in August. He was rescued off the streets by the remarkable cat rescuer, Em. He’d been living as a stray for a while and was clearly struggling.
He needed urgent medical attention, so came to us. The vets initially thought he wasn’t that old, but on closer examination it was determined that he was approximately 10 years or older.
He was suffering from many medical conditions.

We had to build his strength up before he could have an operation to remove a lot of decayed teeth that were causing him so much pain.
He went into foster with the wonderful Anne, where he was given all the love and care he needed to get strong enough for treatment.
Lots of TLC and plenty of M&S chicken too. 🥰

Then came the diagnosis we were dreading. Bertie had cancer and all that could be done was palliative care.
He went into long term foster with the amazing Trish and her family. He was soon joined by another golden oldie called Freddie. The two of them formed an immediate bond, best friends together.
Bertie died peacefully at home today. He was held by his loving foster mama Trish and had his best buddy Freddie by his side.
He knew he was loved. He knew he was special and he knew he was the best and goodest big boy.
Freddie will miss his little side kick and so will we.
We’re so sorry for your loss, Trish and family.
Thank you for all the love and care you’ve given to Bertie.
RIP beautiful boy. We loved you so 💔💔💔🌈🌈🌈

We hope you’re all having a wonderful Christmas Day. We found a moment in the madness to celebrate a special lady. Lily came to us a few months ago. Her owner had died. She’s an older cat. She wasn’t using a litter tray and a local rescue advised her finder that she would be hard to rehome, so it may be better to put her to sleep. Luckily her rescuer decided he wasn’t comfortable with that. The vets advised he contacted us. Lily was taught to use a tray, it took less than 48 hours. She also found a wonderful long term foster home with two of our volunteers Andy & Ivan. They have selflessly given Lily a loving home and a new chance in life.
Merry Christmas Lily. We hope you have the best day, get lots of treats and give lots of nose boops to your lovely adopters. 😻😻😻❤️❤️❤️🎄🎄🎄

Unfortunately Christmas doesn’t mean that we can rest on our laurels. Three emergencies have arrived at GCR yesterday and today.
Meet Clarence (black/white boy) sadly abandoned. He clearly has dental issues, so will need treatment ASAP.
Mistletoe, (tabby girl) found as a stray. She sadly has blisters all over the pads on her paws. She has no teeth. She isn’t an old cat, so goodness knows what she’s been through.
Last, but not least, we have Jack Frost (white boy) He’s been a stray for at least six years. He’s not neutered and although friendly, he appears to have ‘shut down’ We quickly need to teach him to love and trust humans, as he’s very withdrawn. We also need to have him neutered.
All these beautiful animals will receive all the love and care they need from the team here.
We’ll keep you updated with their progress.
❤️❤️❤️

Glossop Cat Rescue would like to wish all our friends and supporters a very happy Christmas and a peaceful New Year.
We will be hanging stockings on the pens of all our cats in the cattery this evening.
We know they will be receiving gifts from Santa Paws. (Shhh! Big secret: we’ve already wrapped them)
We’ll also do our absolute best to fulfill their biggest wishes for the new year: A loving family and a new home.

We’re sad to announce that one of our beautiful golden oldies passed away yesterday. Peter (later renamed Tommy) came to us in the summer last year. He was an old boy, with a cheeky and lovable personality.
He was adopted by Betty & Terry who gave him a wonderful home, a loving family and spoiled him to bits.
Thank you for making his final months so comfortable Betty & Terry. We’re so sorry for your loss.
RIP beautiful boy. We love you 💔🌈

That’s us closed until January 6th.
If you have an appointment or home check booked with us in the next couple of days, that will still be going ahead.
We will still be active on here.
There’s too many cute cats we can’t resist sharing. 😻
However, for now we won’t be dealing with messages, emails, enquiries etc.
This is to give myself, Nicola and Alice a much needed break.
Julie

Ruby coming round from a fainting fit.🙏🏻🤞🏻

This is what’s happening to Ruby. She’s having fainting episodes. She comes out of them after a minute or two, but she’s then disoriented for a while.

We’re always so grateful to our fosterers, but even more so at this times of year. The only reason heavily pregnant, stray cats like Mittens are safe off the streets, is because someone was kind enough to open their hearts and their homes to cats like her. Mittens is lucky. She’s safe in Tracey’s care. She’s days away from giving birth. She’s tiny, around 7-8 months old. Can you imagine how horrific it would have been for her to have to try and find a safe, dry space to give birth on the streets? 😔😔😔

Two terrified little boys just arrived in our cattery, let down by humans. They’re getting lost of love and attention from everyone at GCR. We’ll help them see that some humans can be trusted. 😔😔😔🥹🥹🥹🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Remember the kittens that we battled to save? We’re happy to report that they are thriving. For logistical reasons, they’ve now moved into foster with me (Julie) and of course my cat Maisie has gone into full foster mama mode 😂🥰😻

I’m sure Nicola will forgive me for posting a video of her in her pyjamas. We were so worried about the weakest one yesterday, look at Nicola’s reaction when he starts to guzzle his food! Oh dear! I seem to have something in my eye Heart of gold our Nicola ❤️❤️❤️🥹🥹🥹
