“The three thousand pounds we received will be directly helping animals by fixing the roof in our new cattery extension area.
“Donations like this one are vital to our charity. They provide essential funds that allow us to improve and upkeep our facilities as well as pay for the animals vet treatments and keep our animals fed and happy.”
