Cat charity makes emergency appeal to deal with surge in unwanted cats...

Cats Protection’s Wear Valley & Darlington Branch has today issued an emergency appeal in response to a dramatic rise in the number of unwanted cats needing the charity’s help.

Volunteer spokesperson said: “This surge in unwanted cats is extremely distressing. It is a crisis for the cats and it piles additional pressure onto our volunteers. The Wear Valley & Darlington branch is stretched to the limit looking after the cats in its care as all our foster spaces are full.

Adult cats in particular are looking for loving forever homes, we offer full rescue back up support and all our cats are neutered, micro chipped, vaccinated and vet checked as well as fully insured for 4wks.

Cats like Dylan who is a lovely friendly cat but has a pronounced heart murmur. (Tabby and white pic attached)

Gizmo the ginger and white boy who has trust issues so occasionally lashes out, or Maggie our black and white who has FIV.

“I fear unless we home some of these cats soon this could push Cats Protection Wear Valley & Darlington Branch to breaking point and leave us unable to help many more unwanted cats out there so we are urgently asking for help,”

If you would like to make a donation, or adopt a cat, please call Cats Protection’s Wear Valley & Darlington Branch on 0845 313 4749 or you can visit our website at www.wearvalley.cats.org.uk

George thinks its Christmas

 We can only imagine how uncomfortable George was before he was abandoned, unable to see and in pain from eye infection. Well today George feels much better and is enjoying playing with cat nip Santa.

Dumped like yesterdays rubish!

 At first glance they may appear in good condition but don't be fooled because they aren't ;-(
So what happens to the ones not saleable from the kitten pedlars? they get dumped that's what and experienced cat rescuers don't need a crystal ball to know what's happened here. So anyone who has bought a kitten from these type of people who let the cats have kittens just so they can sell em will have bought a flea, worm an ear mite bundle probably taken to early from mum. While the parents are dumped like rubbish at the side of the road!! I know exactly what situation these dumped cats have come from. ginger tom oldest has bad eyes unneutered aproxx 2/3 yr old ginger tom 18mt/2yr ear mites, unneutered Blue tortie queen approx 2/3yr old recently been feeding kittens (not the 2 six monthers with her but younger kittens) skin an bone dirty. ginger queen 6mths old wormy skin an bone too tabby tom 6 mth old wormy skin an bone.



Mother of 6/8mthers and likely the 18mth old ginger, still trusting, full of milk so been feeding young kittens recently. skin an bone, wormy an grubby face.
 second ginger boy also booked at vets later in week, ear mites and also high risk FIV
 tabby tom approx 6/8 mths very afraid but friendly. very thin

 ginger queen approx 6/8mth very frightened but reassured by presence of the matriarch. very thin.

 Eldest ginger boy has bad eyes, booked in to vets later in week for neuter an blood tests. high risk FIV
