Col's Cat Services wants to wish you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year🎄🎅🏻

Thank you for your support in 2024, it’s been another amazing year and it’s been great to have some cat sitters on board to service our customers in Gravesend now that I have relocated to Suffolk and am not building Cols Cat Services in the local area here💚

We’ve also supported cat rescues and raised just under £2,000 through my cold water challenge, corporate donation and raffles for cat rescues, held two cat food collections for local rescues and I’ve also expanded into cat grooming and nail clipping.

I’m looking forward to 2025 and seeing you all existing customers and meeting some new ones too

Over the weekend, Col's Cat Services was back in to see this beautiful pair,

Nanna was the cat sitter this time and said, “This weekend, I looked after Roxy and Dave and had such a good time with them both. Two little characters, Dave is a cheeky chap and Roxy is a cuddly model. They were easy to look after and their family was lovely all the way through as well”

🥶🥶🥶🐈‍⬛✂️🧊🧊🧊🧊

Days 1 - 3 of cold water challenge, raising funds for neutering at Cats Protection🐈‍⬛🐈✂️

Unneutered cats is a massive problem in the UK, and leads to a high number of unwanted litters who either end up dumped on the streets or in rescues. We need to do more to address the root cause of this issue and educate and support the local communities on the importance of neutering.

This is why I have decided to challenge myself to a cold water challenge for 12 days over December
Each day the time will increase leading to the final day of 5 mins in cold water 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶

Please share and if you can support anything at all it will be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Day 1 - 2min
Day 2 - 2mins 15 secs
Day 3 - 2 mins 30 secs

Col's Cat Services was back in to see these adorable boys, this time Jo was taken care of them and said, “It's been a pleasure looking after Brian and Cecil. It was lovely being greeted by Cecil at the door, wanting to play with the lace. Brian was playing it a bit more cool but soon joined in 😺. They both enjoyed a fuss and giving head bumps. And Cecil has such a loud purr! I really enjoyed taking care of them and hope to see them again 🥰”
