Trix and trixi - brother & sister, 12 years old, black & white
This very sweet pair were indoor cats. They don’t need to stay indoor cats, but aren't very streetwise so will need to live away from any main roads if they do go outdoors. They're both really adorable and are looking forward to their new home together.

Cats for Charity Limited Edition Prints and Cards
Cats for Charity by PeggyJane
PeggyJane decided she wanted to help two cat charities close to her heart.
When her beloved Twiggy died last year, she turned to Bev at Stray Cat Rescue to hand over Twiggy’s belongings. As any animal lover will know this is heartbreaking but when arriving at Stray Cat Rescue PeggyJane knew it was the right place to hand over the items and left with a happy heart knowing that these were going to be put to good use. The amazing work that this rescue centre does is outstanding.
Fast forward to this year and never again could she go through the heartache of another animal, until one Sunday morning when scrolling through FaceBook she came across a rescue centre in Egypt called Crazy Cat Champions.. and there she was... Macy. Love at first sight! After contacting Sherouk who runs this rescue centre, it was heartbreaking learning about the stories of each cat. Sherouk and another lady, Amira go out to the streets of Cairo and rescue the stray cats, they nurse them, pay for their vet bills and then hopefully get them ready for a better life abroad by preparing them for a passport. Once classed as a God in Egypt it is clear that that is no longer the case…
Now PeggyJane and Macy are together and on their next chapter.
There are 10 x A4 prints in total all limited signed editions (only 7 of each made) - Price £15 plus free postage
NEW in Cats for Charity Cards again 10 prints in total £3.50 each with free postage.
All the profits for the sale of these items will go to the two cat charities mentioned above.

In search of urgent employment...
At stray cat rescue, we take in all cats, domestic and feral. We have a large number of ferals looking for employment in barns, farms or stables. They'll happily make themselves busy keeping mice and rodent populations under control - and all they ask in payment is food, and a warm safe bed for the night. If you can keep these had workers gainfully employed, give us a call!
