Title: Cats Protection's 'Coffee Table News' Booklet
Post by: Cloveart on May 17, 2017, 16:55:53 PM

When I was in Tesco's this afternoon, I noticed a booklet behind the tills called 'Coffee Table News' by Cats Protection. I was looking for the glossy local 'Society' magazine, without success, but found this one instead. In our branch, the booklets tend to be tucked away and you have to keep checking to find new ones. 'Coffee Table News' is probably intended to encourage cat lovers to subscribe to Cats Protection's 'The Cat' magazine (it is only £15 for a year) and to raise funds to help with their work, but nevertheless it contains some interesting little articles. I read about a little tabby, referred to the Northampton Branch of CP, which was homeless and pregnant, despite being only a kitten herself of about seven months old. There is also a little 'Why does my cat...?' feature on rubbing, pawing, etc. Sorry, I could not find an illustration of the booklet, either on their website (www.cats.org.uk) or after a Google images search. Did you know Cats Protection turned 90 on the 16th May 2017?

That's interesting, Cloveart.  I didn't realise The Cat magazine was theirs too.   ;D

Your Cat is quite good, although Catworld looks interesting, especially, 'What you should be feeding your cat.'
