Cat cabin appeal
For many years the cats in the cattery have
benefited from using our lovely cat cabin. It
is a place where the staff and volunteers can
take both adult cats and kittens for some
time away from their pens. Inside there is a
sofa, arm chairs, climbing shelves and even a
stereo playing calming music.
Although the inside of the cabin is
interesting for the cats, the garden outside
is quite bare and with little enrichment for
them. Earlier this year we came up with
ideas to change this outside area for the
better. Our plan is to expand the garden
and provide a natural area to explore with
lots of cat-friendly shrubs. There will also
be shelves, different textures and levels, a
sheltered area and even a water fountain.
To help us achieve all of this we would really
appreciate donations of the following:
•
Cat-friendly shrubs: Buddleia,
Lavender, Mexican Orange Blossom,
Catnip, Lavatera Rosea, Clematis,
Sunflower seeds, Thyme, Hardy Fuchsia
• An electric water feature
• A wooden bench
