When is a stray cat not a stray cat?

Cats are naturally wanderers as far as 10 miles, especially if unneutered. Cats, when they visit other houses, are always ‘starving’ and are never fussy eaters (I once knew a cat that would only eat turkey at home but went and raided the neighbours cat food bowl every day). So what can you do if…

Sometimes all that is needed is a little bit of tlc

Stanley has clearly been living rough for sometime, although he is a little bit fuffy as you can see in the video below if a dreamie is involved he’s happy to have a bit of a stroke. It looks like our Stanley will be looking for a cosy indoor home once he is fully recovered…

And still they keep coming in

There appears to be a never ending stream of kittens being found. This morning two more came in from the Duns area. Very pretty with sharp claws and teeth. We’re sure they’ll come round as soon as they realise we’re a source of food. These two are probably around the 12 weeks mark so still…

Another busy Saturday

We’ve another busy Saturday ahead with 14 animals off to their new homes. Fortunately a lot of them are cats as we have a huge waiting list of cats to come in. We often get asked if we are sad when the animals leave us. That’s a difficult question, it is after all what we’re…

The wonder of mother nature

Yesterday we took in three kittens about 3 or 4 weeks old that were found by the road side. Apparently healthy, and certainly with healthy appetites. Lucille had just finished feeding her 5 so we though we’d see if she would help us out. She wasn’t a natural mother when her kittens were born, she…

Plant Sale preparations

Our plant sale is always very popular and Karen has been planting seeds since before the last one. Her long suffering husband has decided the only way forward is a poly tunnel as they have no more window sills, or space for that matter in their house and garden. So today a massive 25 x…
