The cats in our Rouges Gallery below are either virus positive, quite old, feral or sick so their upkeep is quite expensive. We hope other cat-lovers will come to their aid to help us to look after them.
By sponsoring a cat yourself or as a gift for a loved one you’ll become a Friend of the Cats for a minimum of £6.50 a year and know that your generous support is providing shelter, food and medical care for our cats - the love is free!
Wilma
This little lady was one of three cats taken from a house in Ilford. The lady thought Wilma was expecting kittens so we took immediate action on collecting them which actually was really hard as the lady had let them enter her open plan house including the space into the loft!!
We got 2 cats that Saturday morning but Wilma was in the loft, she came out during the night apparently and squeezed into the upright freezer and the lady called the Fire Brigade to get her out!! And to top it all, Wilma was already neutered. Sadly, Wilma never tamed sufficiently for homing although the other two cats did find a home of their own.
Magnificent 7
Perhaps we ought to change the name to Magnificent 11 as we have seen 11 black cats eating at once, very difficult to tell apart, although a few of them we can.
All seem well although one, a female we originally called Susie, cost over £600 to have a polyp removed but that was three years ago. As an experiment to try to give them their own names, we put collars on two and duly called them Teddy and Slim but the collars were soon lost and now they are collectively known as the Magnificent 7!!
Thomas
This gorgeous lad was abandoned by his owners when they were evicted from their property. We received a call from neighbours saying he was desperately trying to get back into the flat.
Lucky for this handsome boy one of our volunteers lives nearby and agreed to pop round and trap him, she said he is super sweet and we are thankful that she has agreed to foster him, so for now this little man is off the streets with a happy future ahead of him.
Mabel
This beautiful girl came from a group of 30 cats and kittens trapped at Marney Road, she was only a kitten when trapped as we have her DOB as 05/08/2017. We managed to home quite a few of the kittens but Mabel would hiss and lash out when you went near her and stayed close to her feral mum so she never quite tamed up enough to be homed. Being semi feral means occasionally she lets me get close enough to take a photo.
She is happy to be with the other Marney Road cats that were too feral to home and she seems very happy with her own little cat family.
Nayla
This cheeky little Lady is into everything including the litter sack!!! She loves to play hide and seek and despite being feral and wary of us humans she loves her fellow feline fiends and can often be found running around chasing one of them. It is always a pleasure to see the cats play.
