This is just my first post on this thread as there will be loads of info added. Ummmm first thing is have changed the title !!
For £1 each or as much as you wanna donate, you can feed one or more of the unhomeable cats or long stay residents or even the pack of ferals ;D ;D
Up for feeding are:
Minimopsical
Pedro
Ivan the Terrible
Tula
Cat
Chat
Fuchsia
Hettie
Monica
Wilma
Milly
Olly
and the pack of Ferals
Pictures and info about each to follow later, but some of course you will know well ;D
-
Right we are off and running ;D
You wouldnt want them to go hungry now........would you? It takes a lot of food to fill each one as you can see by their sizes but of course you are what you eat..........nice shiney heatthy coats, smiles on their faces and we would all want this to continue , wouldnt we ;D ;D
Soooooooo £1 a day feeds one of these gorgeous cats............and dont forget the ferals who come as a pack and expect, yes expect their food everyday ;D.. They form a queue outside Paws Inn and when feeding time approaches its a bit like a London bus queue, it turns into chaos at the dishes ;) ;)
First hungry cat is Minimopsical who I am sure most of you know very well. She is a gorgeous disabled lady who was rescued as a kitten but due to her problems will remain in the loving care of Paws Inn. She looks after some of the kittens that pass through and teaches them some manners and how to look after themselves before they go to their new homes,
Next up is Pedro, who is best friends with Minimopsical and sadly food goes in at one end and out the other, in ways rather best not described here. Teresa is waiting to find out if a serious bowel operation will help him.
Now we have the beautiful Fuschia who came as a feral and just look at her now.........well as long as she is at Paws Inn , that is.
Last of the first group is Hettie and she was the first feral released into the garden , 11 years ago.
-
The next group of four hungry cats are:
Ivan The Terrible used to be feral. He needs an indoor only home because he has severe allergies which affects his breathing terribly and causes his ears to curl ,he has been with us just over 9 years. His picture is the last one just to confuse you all :rofl: :rofl:
Then we have Olly who had to have his pelvis pinned following RTA, his fur has still not regrown after 10 months and he has severe allergies. His picture is first. ;D
Wilma is another feral who looks rather contented in her home ;D
Last of this group is Monica a feral was trapped by us 9 years ago she was heavily pregnant. We rehomed her kittens but Monica was released here as she did not have a safe colony to return to and we were unable to find a farm home.
-
The last group of hungry cats is headed by the double act of Cat and Chat, bet you cant think who they were named after :rofl: :rofl: They are so stunning and innocent looking but I am told they are wild, really wild :shify: :shify:
Then we have Milly who was trapped during October last year, mum to Noor,Roshan,Aurora etc, she is feral and the people agreed to take her back then refused when the time came, we are still working on her and she allows Rob to stroke her. ;D
And nearly last Tula, who was yet another pregnant feral when she arrived 8 years ago,she too had nowhere to go so was released here,over the years she has become very friendly. ;D
Last of course but with no pictures are the crazy queue of ferals mentioned below :rofl: :rofl:
-

Hi Teresa,
As I am a cat lover and this is for Teresa who has been so supportive and informative about Beanie's health problem, I cannot go past this thread without a pledge of £25 for Xmas meals, veterinary bills or however Teresa decides to use it for the cats.
Come on folks! A few pints of beer or glasses of wine less or whatever, will help an excellent little charity that I would practically help more if I lived nearer.
Teresa,
I am currently trying to help a few of the independent cat groups / charities around and still engaged on finding missing local cats. It is a shame that you live so far away as I would love you to meet my friend Rosemary (my guiding light) as the two of you are very similar. The cats come first and she works hard at looking after her waifs and strays and other cats needing help on a 24/7 basis. 100% of donations are spent on the cats.
Do you want me to send you a cheque direct?
-
Please Beanie do this through the auction and we will tell you how to donate next Sunday evening...if you want to send a cheque at that time we will tell you who to send it to.
:thanks: for your very generous donation ;D
-
Total so far...........stunning
£106 ;D ;D ;D
:thanks:
-
£20 for everyone as I can't pick ;)
-
£20.00 on behalf of Mr Tramp for all the lovely ferals in Paws Inn, eventhough he hasnt been around for a long while but i know he would have wanted this, he had such a lovely nature. :Luv:
