 SPONSOR
A 'CAT CABIN' WITH CATS PROTECTION
You can sponsor a Cat Cabin in a Cat's Protection shelter for as little
as £4.00 a month. These safe, comfortable cabins are a life
saver for thousands of cats every year, as they await a permanent home.

SCHOOL, CLASS OR CLUB "CAT ADOPTION"
If you are at school, or belong to a club, why not ask if your class,
school or club could sponsor an un-homeable cat at your local rescue
centre? Or sponsor a Cat Cabin (above)? By clubbing together, this will
only cost a few pence each, but will make the world of difference to
a cat in care. Shelters often have schemes where they will send you updates
on 'your cat', and may also allow you to visit.
