As many of you are aware, there is not much in this world more important to me than my two kitties, Panda and Little P. These cats are loved and cuddled and fed, and paid more attention than to be honest is probably necessary - at times making them very demanding :-)

My point........... so many cats and kittens are not so lucky, and find themselves homeless, neglected or abandoned. Cats Protection helps those many little creatures find a home, no matter how long it takes. I am raising money for the Woking and District Branch of Cats Protection to help all those local kitties out there who are looking for a happy home just like my two special creatures.

So............... I am going to Zambia this coming October to spend 3 days canoeing down the Zambezi river, covering a ridiculous amount of miles each day, camping in a tent on the side of the river at night, totally in the midst of the wildness of nature - very exciting, but also really quite scary. After 3 days of canoeing I will then have the priviledge of spending a further 3 days helping out on a lion conservation project.

I ask all you cat loving people out there , and I know you are many!!!.......... please to be as generous as you can. If you own or have owned a cat, or know someone who does, just imagine if that little fur ball were in that situation where they became homeless, even temporarily, perhaps they got lost and couldn't find their way home - wouldn't you want to know there was a place dedicated to the welfare and rehoming of them, where they could go and be cared for until he or she was reunited with you.

Just look at that little face of Little P at the top of this page.... how could you refuse such a cutey :-)

Thank you all so much in advance for your care and generosity

Much gratitude, Panda, Little P and Me
