Three of Jasmine's kittens

Taboo was taken in by our volunteers in Leeds

Snowflake washes behind his ears! This newborn orphaned kitten was found behind a shed and hand-reared by Central London CAT77

Lucky was sold over the Internet and advertised as being 6 weeks of age. His owner realised he was struggling - it turned out he was just three weeks old. Our branch in Nuneaton & Hinckley took him in and hand-reared him.

Handsome Leonard was dumped in a box in Doncaster town centre - he now has a lovely new home thanks to Doncaster South CAT77

Little Jet had been treated badly by humans and rescued by a member of the public. His whiskers and eyebrows had been cut off and he had what appeared to be a cigarette burn on his ear. He was skinny and petrified but after just a few weeks in his loving foster home, he is nothing but a cuddle-monster now. He has a loving home to go to soon- CAT77 Doncaster South

Scatty gave birth to her kittens in the care of our branch in East Kilbride

Panda and Wanda were rescued by CAT77 Central London. They now live in Jersey, having been taken for rehoming by our branch there. They are now renamed Lilo and Stitch

Little Betty Bobbit in the photo is the daughter of Jasmine who we rescued last year. She is such a sweetie. Betty is a very small kitten, but she has the personality of a tiger. She loves a cuddle and wags her tail when she is excited.

We were asked to trap, neuter and return a young ginger/white female who was living outside a motel in a retail park and had been feeding on tit bits etc. from the motel staff. However when we trapped her we found her to be extremely friendly, albeit very dirty and hungry. We called her Ellie and decided to hang on to her to find her a new home and I am pleased to say we delivered her yesterday to a lady who loves her to bits already. At least it was a happy ending for young Ellie - CAT77 Leeds

Pippin and Heather - two sweet-natured shy cats who lived in our shelters for almost 18 months watching so many others arrive and eventually be adopted - have some very good news that they would like me to share with you. At last, these two adorable girls have found a forever home - CAT77 Ayrshire

Orphaned at 2 weeks old at a stable these kittens were hand reared by volunteers in East Kilbride CAT 77 and all went to fantastic homes.

Cat burglar strikes in Greenford - no one ever claimed the missing items...

The Hertfordshire Feral Cat Colony are fed daily. This is even more important during the harsh winter months. Shelter can also be provided by an "Igloo". See Cat Care and Advice. Photo:© Copyright Julie Hasler, 2013

Sometimes you need to look at life from a different angle! Rory, rescued by our Bewdley Branch

Rehoming an older cat - like Dulcie pictured here - is so rewarding. Many older cats are overlooked in favour of the youngsters, but not everyone's lifestyle suits taking on a kitten. Your local CAT77 branch is always happy to give advice on the type of cat to suit your circumstances.

Is it a bat or a cat, no it's Oscar! Oscar, and his sister Tosca, were rescued by our Central London Branch, the result of a pet cat allowed to breed year after year. They are now very happy pampered pets!
