Logan has grown from a desperate kitten in need of hands-on care to a lively and loving three-year-old cat, thanks to the ongoing care of Ghislaine Belither, a Carnivore Keeper who cares for tigers, lions, leopards, honey badgers and wolves at Howletts Wild Animal Park. He was pink and strange with almost no fur. He had a misshapen head and long skinny legs but there was something about him that had me hooked. It was my job to hand rear him, which felt like such a responsibility. He relied on me and I dedicated so much care to this little mite.

Snares were banned in Wales last month under the Agriculture (Wales) Bill and Cats Protection will continue to campaign for the rest of the UK to follow suit. During the process of adopting a cat from us, we’ll consider everything from your potential pet’s personality and how this fits with your lifestyle, to your home environment – creating the perfect match for both cat and owner and the start of a wonderful feline friendship. Cats Protection’s wall calendar shares the stories of cats successfully adopted through the UK’s largest feline charity’s network of adoption centres and volunteer-run branches.Many of the photos taken for the calendar were taken by the owners of cats rehomed by cats protection. They give an insight into the cats lives after they've been rehomed. Our 2023 calendars will put a smile on faces up and down the country, illustrating the result of good work done by volunteers and staff at our branches, centres and shops and as a reminder that we do it all for cats. Every calendar, diary, box of Christmas cards or hidden treasure bought this season will help cats in need.” Cats Protection’s Advocacy & Government Relations Officer for Scotland Alice Palombo said: “Snares are incredibly cruel and inhumane, causing immense suffering to any animal they capture. Many animals die slow, painful deaths after being caught and the ones that do survive may suffer life-changing injuries. Without volunteers, Cats Protection Cambridge Branch simply wouldn't exist. Our amazing, friendly volunteers are a diverse group with a shared love of cats who fit volunteering around their home lives and personal commitments. We are always looking to increase our pool of volunteers, who may be able to help in some way, however small. This year's Cats Protection calendar features one cat whose mum was heavily pregnant with her and her siblings when she was found abandoned outside an adoption centre.

Tom Ryan, Interim Head of Retail and Trading at Cats Protection, said: “The arrival of our calendars and diaries are complementary highlights to the amazing goods, donated and new, we have in our shops. Cats Protection Cambridge Branch is run entirely by volunteers and is dependent on the generosity and goodwill of our supporters. We’re here to support cats and kittens in Cambridge city (CB1, CB2, CB3, CB4 and CB5) and the surrounding villages (Some of CB8, most of CB21, CB22, CB23, CB24, CB25, and SG8.) Cats Protection Cambridge branch volunteers will visit your home to talk you through the homing process before inviting you to meet your purrfect match of a cat in foster care. We’ll consider everything from your potential pet’s personality and how this fits with your lifestyle, to your home environment.

Betsy is a very affectionate purr machine who loves a lap and a fuss, although she also makes it very known if dinner is late. I especially love that she chirps in conversation rather than meows. STRIKE A POSE: Betsy's calendar shot (Image: Lee Smyth) A malnourished kitten that was hand-reared by a Sussex charity worker has been named Mr September in Cats Protection’s calendar for 2023. Ghislaine said: “I think its brilliant that Cats Protection use adopted cats in their calendars and it feels very special to have Logan feature alongside so many other inspirational stories. It gives recognition for the work that people like me across the charity put in to care for cats in need.

Now Betsy is starring as Miss March in the Cats Protection 2023 calendar which is available from the charity’s chain of shops nationwide. Every calendar sold helps the charity to raise much-needed funds for cats and kittens in need of new homes at its network of adoption centres and volunteer-run branches.

All the cats in our care are looked after by a team of dedicated fosterers in their own homes or purpose-built pens in gardens until we find new homes for them. In 2022 we homed 117 cats and kittens into loving homes. We’re here to support cats and kittens in Downham Market, covering postcodes: IP26, PE13, PE14, PE15, PE30, PE31, PE32, PE33, PE34, PE35, PE36, PE37 and PE38. Writing a will is the only way to ensure your final wishes for your estate are fulfilled. It is a last chance to remember people and causes you cared about in life. A clearly written will also avoids unnecessary confusion and stress for loved ones at an already difficult time. That's why Cats Protection will cover the cost of writing or amending a simple single or mirror will. You are under no obligation to include Cats Protection in your will. However, once you have provided for those closest to you we hope you will take the opportunity to consider helping cats in this special way. Run by a small group of passionate, cat-loving volunteers, we’re dedicated to improving the lives of cats and kittens in our area. We work to find loving new homes for local cats in our care, offer support with neutering and microchipping, lost and found cats, and cared-for community cats, as well as general education and awareness within the Cambridge area.
