We have seen an influx of felines in recent weeks and now have over 100 cats at the centre. Unfortunately, many of these animals can\u2019t be rehomed immediately due to their circumstances or medical issues.<\/p>\n
Rehoming and fostering lead, Anna O\u2019Donnell, said, \u201cWe are currently caring for a high number of cats and we desperately need emergency foster placements to free up some space at our centre.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we can\u2019t get some of the cats out on foster then there\u2019s a chance we might not be able to admit any more for the time being. This is a situation we don\u2019t want to find ourselves in as we never want to turn away an animal who needs our help.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re looking for foster carers who are happy to keep a cat as an indoor cat, and don\u2019t currently have any other cats in their home.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re also looking for a settled environment for these animals, so no big changes within the home planned like holidays, house moves or similar within the next six months.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe appreciate it\u2019s a big ask for people to open their home to an animal at such short notice but you really would be making a massive difference to not only the cat you foster, but the numerous cats we\u2019d then be able to go on to help by having more space in our cattery.\u201d<\/p>\n
