JIM
Jim is about twelve years old. He was a feral kitten, found at 6 weeks old in a box in Tesco’s car park. He was cared for by a veterinary nurse and while he was there met Rosie a young tortoiseshell cat who had been in a road accident. They have been inseparable ever since. They were rehomed together but two years ago came into the care of Cats Protection. After eight months we had still not managed to find them a home and their fosterer let them out into her large garden. They now live there very happily with the other cats, sleeping on beds and doing all the things cats like to do.

SOOTY is a black short-haired cat about thirteen years old. She arrived at the saw mills at Penton Mewsey as a young un-neutered female and later reared a family of kittens. These were removed when they were old enough, and Sooty subsequently disappeared. When she finally returned, it was with a leg so badly injured that it had to be removed. This disability meant that she would never survive as a feral, so she is in a long term foster home where she lives contentedly with the other cats.
