We want to help not only the cats of the UK but we are trying to raise awareness for the international cat charities too.
If you would like to help, please check them out and do what you can for them.
We are not affiliated with any of these charities but we do support them if and when we can.
Adopt Don't Shop. Rescue Don't Breed.
I was rescued and adopted as a kitten in July 2011 |
Here is another kitty at Wood Green, The Animals Charity who is looking for a forever home.
Freddy
For Tuxie Tuesday we have a beautiful black and white cat named Freddy. This handsome man cat is 9 years old and is being looked after by the Godmanchester branch of Wood Green.
Freddy describes himself as being a little shy but once he gets to know you he will love to spend time with you. He is affectionate with his favourite humans and likes to greet people he trusts with a head butt.
A calm home is what he would love, where he can explore and get to know his environment and humans on his own terms. Freddy is looking for a calm home, where he can be given the time to approach his humans and explore his environment on his own terms.
If you want to know more about adopting Freddy read more about him here.

Nine Lives Greece cats
Adopt a cat from Greece
Based in Athens, Greece, Nine Lives Greece is "just a handful of volunteers who dedicate our spare time to the stray cats, we have no office, no shelter facilities, no animal ambulance or transport van, and we receive no state funding or assistance".
The charity's main aim is the "humane reduction of the stray cat overpopulation through trap-neuter-return programmes. Each year, we get hundreds of stray cats in Athens neutered/spayed, greatly reducing the numbers of unwanted kittens born each season, and ensuring a healthier adult cat population."
Nine Lives Greece also helps to improve the quality of life for existing street cats through feeding programmes on a daily basis feeding nearly 450 stray and abandoned cats in central Athens and giving routine anti-parasite treatment, and veterinary care for ill or injured cats. In addition, they find loving, responsible homes for as many stray or abandoned cats and kittens as possible.
Check out the Nine Lives Greece website here.
Here are some cats from Nine Lives on Instagram.
This beautiful cat is looking so happy now she has found her forever home! We are so happy for her. Rescue Cats Rock!

Skiathos Cat Welfare needs your HELP…
From Skiathos Cat Welfare Association Facebook page:
"We have been aware of a situation for some time, we have tried to help with food when we can, however things have now sadly escalated.
In the middle of the island, an elderly local man has been trying for some time to care for numerous cats, and 3 dogs. He has done his best considering his age and failing health. Sadly, he is now in hospital and the situation in his home is critical. We have been given permission from his family to go to the house to try and help the cats there. It's clear that the resident has been struggling for some time and it’s a very sad situation.
There are cats needing vet care, there are kittens, pregnant females, a blind cat. In the day we have seen around 20-30 cats, I imagine when its cooler there are more we just haven’t seen.
Immediate needs are food, new feeding bowls, and general things to try and do what we can to the immediate area to try and improve the situation.
We are very short of volunteers and its hard to try and go everyday which is what it needs. Is there anyone in the local community who could help a fellow resident as this is a long term situation for which at this time we don’t know how the story will end.
We want to try our best, but need a little help.
Can you buy an SOS token for £1 ?"
Each token will go in the pot to get food, water, medical care, and any immediate needs for these cats.
