Announcement from SCR Chair - Helen regarding Harry our mascot and sponsor cat Hello It is with much sadness that we have to announce that that we have needed to say goodbye to our beloved resident Harry. Every cat we rescue, rehome or keep at the shelter is special, but like us humans, some have that little bit of extra star quality. That was our Harry, our furry meet and greet champion. It was rare to drive up to the shelter and not have Harry stroll over to check you out and wait for his very deserved fuss. He came to us with a dreadful head injury that vets struggled to treat, but Bev wouldn’t give up on him. She treated his wounds with manuka honey, mixed with a big pinch of Bev magic. She was with him for his final days, still trying to help him, but accepting that he was telling her he’d had enough. Rest peacefully now Harry, thank for your cuddles. Let’s all smile at our happy memories of Harry, a very special boy who touched many hearts. Helen SCR Chair.
Announcement from SCR Chair - Helen regarding Zephie our long standing sponsor cat Hello The joy of having a pet is always at some point tempered by the sadness of loss. This has been a hard week for us at SCR, as we have also lost another one of our long term residents, Zephie. She was what I can only describe as a character! Diva is the word I’ve heard many times in connection with Zephie. Petrifying is another. She landed me in A & E after a close encounter with her teeth and claws. I’ve seen many a person freeze when she decided to jump on their laps and settle down. But we love every cat, whatever their personality, and she has lived her best life at the shelter with Bev, who adored her. Many people will have everlasting memories of Zephie, and her independent nature. Rest peacefully Zephie, thank you for always being you. Helen Chair
