Today I received a worrying press release from Cats Protection about the decline in cat adoptions due to the recession. According to the release 16 out of their 24 adoption centres have noticed a decline, which means a lot of furry friends are in desperate need of a loving home. The adoption centre in Wrexham has been hit the worst by recession.
We adopted our moggie from CP in Cardiff and if it was up to me I would adopt another one – but Bobby might not be too happy about that. I will give it a few more years when she is older and then definitely adopt another cat. I can’t honestly imagine my life without cats, they make the best pets.
So if you consider buying a cat – check out CP’s adoption centres first or ask your local branch (which may not have an adoption centre) if they have cats in care. Ours was cared for by lovely foster carers, who became friends of mine, and not from an adoption centre as Cardiff hasn’t got one.
