Title: NEW CATS PROTECTION GUIDLINES
Post by: Ela on November 14, 2007, 14:37:40 PM
There are loads of things that must be done although we in Chesterfield have been doing everything for a long time but what I am really pleased  about is that branches who cannot afford the cost of:-

Blood testing  all cats deemed to be at higher risk of FeLV and FIV
Provide a full vaccination course (two injections three weeks apart) of cat 'flu and enteritis, FeLV and chlamydophila felis to all cats and kittens.
Microchip.

Can now receive funds from Cats Protection HQ to implement the changes in the guidelines.

Thinking of the ferals I've rescued.  ;)

You ask your local Branch or HQ. Of course the initial post refers to cats in CP care.

Surely I'm saving CP the hassle of trapping, housing and feeding them. Why aren't they being more helpful? When I ring, it's an answer machine with a multitude of options, non of which are relevant. I try one at random, and the person concerned isn't there 'right now'!!! :Crazy:

I don't think that fair comment, it is not only the responsibility of CP.
