2011 a new start for the older cats!
NANNA has a new home for older cats, when we started in 2004 one of our trustees just wanted to do wildlife and the older cats, which she done until Feb 2010, when she retired as trustee.
She then made moves to take in young cats and kittens, which NANNA was strongly against due to the cross contamination of mixing old with young. It was felt that the older cats would not like the young kittens running away causing their peaceful life to be chaotic. So sadly when we could not persude our foster home to just do the older cats, we have withdrawn from there.
It has been hard to find just the right place but now we have, we are building a purpose built cat house for the older cats and it is going to have home from home comforts.
Carpeted flooring, sofa's, lots of beds and scratch posts and an outdoor run on the front keeping them safe until a new home is found for them.
This is a picture of it being built, it is going to be heaven for them, we have a radio for quiet music and table tops and lots of luxury items for them.
They will be leaving together, but no different to how they use to be with or other foster homes.
If you would like to donate towards this new Senior Kitti-zen home from home our bank account details are on the form, just follow the link below!

Thank you
We are still building this area but hopefully in Feb 2012 we will have the funds secured for this area to be completed.
Who will benefit from this?
They could be cats with cattitude, opinionated, fussy, or just frightened and unsure of what is happening. Imagine being a cat who's owner has pampered and given everything you could possibly want. A quiet little life with someone you adore as much as they adore you, then suddenly, it's all gone, your owner, your home and people come and pick you up and pop you in a carrier and take you off.
Next thing you know is you have been put somewhere, a cage or a strange house with other cats and your life is upside down! You don't know what is going on, all you know is it's not what you are use to.
How do you explain to cats or any animal what is going on? You can't, all we can do is settle them in, show them love and understanding for their funny little ways and hope they get through the upset.
A lot of other rehoming centres wil not take them in as they can use up the pens for sometime before finding a new home, if they ever do find a new place to live! Some people think it is cruel to take in the older ones because of the stress, what other option is there?
Worried you won't bond? Just COME and see them and I know you will be surprised.
We need a home can I share yours?
CATS FROM THE PAST
The 
General is a very funny chap
REHOMED ```````````He came to us because he was a stray and the people who had been feeding him got worried because the bad weather was on it's way.
The General has been an outdoor cat most of his life, he has a clipped ear which is a sign of being neutered whilst living outdoors!
He has never known home comforts but now he has them, he is not going to lose them! How old?
Who knows, but his teeth say 10+.
Interested? Then ring Ann on 01295 811320 and ask for the General.
Hopeful is REHOMED
Hi NANNA has called me Hopeful because they are 
hoping to find me the purrfect retirement home for me to treadle my paws.
I was found and no rescue home wanted me and the gent who found me was told to take me to the vets and have me put down. He then rang NANNA who said "Bring her in, we will find somewhere for her"
I am staying at NANNA"s for a short time to see if a home can be found for me and then I am going to NANNA Anne who will look after me until I go to chase butterflies in the sky.
Ideally I need to find a forever home where I will get one to one love and attention for my final years.
Please ring NANNA if you can love me, 01295 811320.
Hi my name is Purr-haps and perhaps I"m the cat for you!
REHOMED
I was also taken to the vets to be put down after I was signed over to another charity!
NANNA has taken me in because the only problem I have is my age, I am 15+, once loved but no more (other than by NANNA), I would just like to sleep on a cosy bed, chair or lap.
Please give me a thought when you are looking at all the wonderful cats/kittens NANNA has in their care! 01295 811320 if you can offer me a home for the rest of my life.
Rudi is another character who is looking for nothing but the best! REHOMED 
Rudi came to NANNA via another cat charity and has been with us a little while, he did find a new home but he did not settle and started to spray, which is not a good idea!
He need a quiet understanding home where he can be pampered and not stressed by what is going on around him, Peace and quiet with lots of love and cuddles thats all he wants!
Pip is a male neutered Black cat he has a sleek oriential body, he loves being around other cats and loves being centre of attention, so if you are looking for a companion cat then Pip could be the one for you. Ring Ann on 01295 811320. THIS FIVE ALL FOUND FOREVER HOME 
WE ARE ALL REHOMED
Quilt, is a patchwork light tortie and has just got over an operation to have cancer removed from her ears and is well on the road to recovery all she is looking for is somewhere to live out her life with someone other than Ann to love her. REHOMED
