Are you lonely?

23 September 2011

Do you live alone? Have you considered adopting a cat?

A cat will welcome you home, make a fuss of you, perhaps curl up on your lap when you sit down to watch TV.  You will have another being to care for, to feed and, dare I say it, to talk to!


It is a sad fact that some of the older animals that come into RSPCA care are difficult to re-home but, for a senior citizen living on their own, an older cat can be a wonderful companion.


Of course you need to consider the cost of adopting a cat.  Cat food is not cheap & vet bills are expensive, so we recommend pet insurance.  But adopting a cat can make a great difference to your life and improve your wellbeing.


The local branch of RSPCA has many cats waiting to find a good home.  Contact This link will open in new windowChestnut Cat Sanctuary on 01992 560 510 and see if you can find your ideal companion.
