Yesterday we took in 5 new kittens and a further 7 arrived this morning!!Also 2 returned from a foster home.
We are again overwhelmed,and now have 70 cats and kittens in the shelter which could comfortably accommodate probably only half that number.
The town hall sadly doesn't appreciate how much cats eat ( or how much comes out the other end!)and do not give us enough food or litter.Our last delivery was as pictured !!!
We do our best ,but we can't work miracles and are unable to feed 70+ with that meagre amount.
We keep nagging the town hall for more and hope one day to have an animal welfare officer who actually cares about animals
Meanwhile, I'm sorry but we are having to beg for your help yet again ..we do appreciate and use everything that comes in ..
If you want to donate any thing vetapet near aldi quesada we take for us or drop it into the shelter any morning..or contact me ..thanks

Hello Terry.

We would like to help, certainly will put some cat food aside in Veterpet midday today. Do you need any bedding, towels, or similar as well , or is it just food. ?
Cheers

Terry do Veterpet sell the usual kitten food themselves? Sometimes the vets just stock special diet foods etc. Asking because it would be handy to ring and use them to supply a donation.
