Story

We are a local charity that have been protecting cats in need for 123 years. We home our cats in rooms, not cages, and it's our mission to make sure that every cat that needs a home, finds a home.Our number one priority is protecting the cats who depend on us. These include the hundreds of cats that we home every year, as well as the many foster cats that depend on us to cover the costs of their medicines, surgeries, and ongoing treatments. As we save more cats each year, our vet bills climb higher and higher, with this year's looking to exceed £40000.We have protected cats in need and supported our local community for 123 years thanks to your support. Now, more than ever, we need you to help us help the animals that need us the most.

I've been trying to knit this cardigan since January, but due to chronic fatigue it's been a slow process. I also have bursitis in both of my elbows. This is inflammation at the pointy end of my elbows. I can't have the medication to ease the pain. So, 26 rows will be a challenge.
