Cat of the Week

Tuesday, 23 June 2020 10:20

Barney and Penny are our Cats of the Week

These lovely cats have only ever lived with one person, but sadly their owner died so they are now in need of another loving home.

The siblings are a little reserved, but both enjoy being groomed and have lots of love to give.

A quiet, adult-only home with access to a safe outside space as the only pets, would suit the brother and sister best.

Giving a home to an older cat is so rewarding and we hope that Barney and Penny will soon be adopted and be loved and cared for in their own home very soon.

Enquiries, please ring Val – 01444 457758
