This October I am running the Cardiff Half Marathon in memory of Rex, who sadly passed away earlier this year. He was well-loved, pampered and lived life to the full - he led the kind of life all cats deserve.

Every cat should have a loving home, peace and good health. That's why I'm raising money for Cats Protection.

Cats Protection is the UK’s leading feline welfare charity. Our vision is a world where every cat is treated with kindness and an understanding of its needs. Cats Protection has simple and clear objectives to help cats:

• Homing - Finding good homes for cats in need.
• Neutering - Supporting and encouraging the neutering of cats to reduce the number who are abandoned or taken to shelters.
• Information - Improving people’s understanding of cats and their care.
• Achieving this vision is only made possible due to kind cat lovers who support our work. Visit www.cats.org.uk for more information.
