The Cat House - Cat Lounge & Arts Centre - Norwich

16/08/2024

This is a special session for ages 8 & 9 and any accompanying adults.
It consists of a 30 minute interactive chat with staff, followed by an hour of cat play time for the children to practice their new-found calm cat skills :-)
Adults can sit and listen or can go have a nap on a sofa 😉, with a cat of course! First drinks are included as always. Limited spaces available.
Please note, this is the last of these sessions until the October half term, so if you have an 8 or 9 year old that is keen to visit, this session is their opportunity to do so.

Update: the kittens have now gone to Hallswood, so contact them if you are interested, plus they have many other cats and kittens needing homes!

URGENT: 4 KITTENS NEED HOMES.
Em has got in touch as needs help finding homes for these sweet kittens ASAP.

They were born in a ladies garden in Salhouse, so are living rough. They are shy so will need patience and understanding.
Cats Protection have agreed to neuter and microchip once homes have been found.

A donation towards these costs is requested. Vaccinations will need to be given when old enough. The mum is being FIV tested to check if the kittens are clear.

If interested please contact Em for more info via WhatsApp on: 07979 648150
Thanks!

We quite agree!!

“Having many cats is good. If you feel bad, you look at the cats and you feel better, because they know that everything is just the way it is. You don't have to be nervous about anything. And they know it. They are saviors. The more cats you have, the longer you will live. If you have a hundred cats, you will live ten times longer than if you have ten. One day, this will be known and people will have thousands of cats."
-Charles Bukowski-
