Sheffield Cat Shelter at almost double capacity

Sheffield Cat Shelter at almost double capacity.

Transcript

00:00 I'm Mick Holland from the Sheffield Cats Shelter.

00:02 I'm here with Fruity and Tot,

00:05 two of our lovely kittens.

00:07 And we are absolutely chock-a-block full with cats,

00:11 but especially kittens at the moment.

00:14 Just today we had a cat and two kittens abandoned.

00:20 I was looking out of the window,

00:22 I saw a woman walking past.

00:24 She put her back down and then literally sprinted away.

00:28 I saw her back moving, so we went to have a look

00:30 and inside were a woman and two kittens.

00:34 So obviously we had to take them in,

00:35 but we are absolutely chock-a-block full at the moment.

00:40 And we get so many cats abandoned.

00:43 You know, there are lots of reasons.

00:44 It could well be the cost of a living crisis.

00:47 But whatever the reason is,

00:48 we're in a desperate situation

00:50 where we need people to adopt cats from us,

00:54 adopt beautiful kittens like these,

00:56 or foster from us, which is even more useful

00:59 because foster is free of groom in our cat shelter.

01:02 We've been going 126 years now

01:05 and helping lots of beautiful cats,

01:07 lots of beautiful kittens.

01:09 But we've never been in demand as much as this really.

01:13 So we really are at breaking point now.

01:16 We need the people of Sheffield to help us.

01:20 So I'd say to anyone thinking of adopting a cat

01:23 or thinking of fostering,

01:25 you know, get in touch with us,

01:26 look at our website,

01:28 and help Captain Kittens today and help our shelter.
