The Moggie Blog: I'll have chips with mine ....
http://haworthcatrescue.blogspot.com/2011/03/ill-have-chips-with-mine.html
Thursday, 31 March 2011. I'll have chips with mine . My name's Harriet, or maybe Harry, or actually maybe it's Tigger. You see, being a cat I can't speak so I can't tell you. Here's my story.I was found straying in a Bradford suburb in a pretty poor condition. Thin, hungry and dirty. The kind lady who found me made enquiries, but no one knew where I'd come from, so she took me in and offered me a home. Because she didn't know my name, and because she thought I was a boy cat (perish the thought! Haworth C...

Tuesday, 29 September 2009. Good afternoon friends,. We were alerted to the plight of a little black cat who seemed to have no owner. She spent her days shivering in a garden, grabbing whatever mouthfuls of food she was able to scrounge from the resident cats. The micro-chip details gave us her age - 14 years - and we felt at her age. She would struggle to improve. However, to our joy, blood tests revealed no major problems and after a bath and flea treatment, she looked a lot better, and is now grad...

Monday, 25 January 2010. A Tom Thumb kitten tail! There is another group of kittens, a small but select group, and these are the orphan kits. These are the kits who no longer have a mummy, and come to us aged anything from 1 day upwards. They have usually become orphans either because somethinghas separated them from their mum (she may have died or they may have been removed), or because she has rejected them. And we were concerned that serious health problems were starting to manifest themselves. Despit...

Monday, 11 January 2010. The not-so-dirty dozen . It's not uncommon for us to be asked to rehome a pair or a small group of cats - usually a family group such as a mother and her kittens or a group of siblings. We were rather astounded recently when we were asked to rehome a household of twelve cats. Their poor owner had recently been diagnosed with a severe illness, and this, compounded with a change in his domestic circumstances meant that he could no longer keep his cats. Ake these simple steps:.

The Moggie Blog: Return to sender - not this time :(
http://haworthcatrescue.blogspot.com/2010/02/return-to-sender-not-this-time.html
Tuesday, 23 February 2010. Return to sender - not this time :(. With the number of stray cats who come to our centre, you'd think that a reasonable proportion would end up being reunited with their owners. One great way to reunite lost cats is the microchip, a small implant put under the skin in the cat's neck, which contains a unique number. The number is then registered on a central database along with a description of the cat and the name, address and other contact details of the owner. We would love ...

Monday, 15 February 2010. A Wandering Minstrel I Shall Be. You would think, wouldn't you, that the neutering message should be starting to filter through by now, but there is still a large percentage of cat owners who through ignorance, arrogance or sheer laziness don't get their cats neutered. The tom has absolutely no choice in this behaviour, his hormones dictate his behaviour and he has no possibility of denying his actions. Then, one day he will have gone out - missing for a couple of days and they ...

Thursday, 17 February 2011. No, not really! Aslan is a big hunk of a cat who came to us in the wintertime after being spotted hanging around a local housing estate for several months. He was a big lad, with an enormous head, and rather jumpy and nervous if approached, although not unfriendly. It was immediately apparent that there was something wrong with his eyes - cat flu was suspected by the person who brought him in, but the eye discharge was not accompanied by any sneezing or other symptoms. It is e...

The Moggie Blog: A Tale of Two Kitties
http://haworthcatrescue.blogspot.com/2011/03/tale-of-two-kitties.html
Friday, 11 March 2011. A Tale of Two Kitties. Kittens are so cute - we all love their little faces peering hopefully at us as they wait for new homes. And we love to snuggle them close, play little games with them and laugh at their antics as, safe in the knowledge that they will come to no harm, they jump and pounce and chase. But what of their less fortunate cousins? Take Nessa and Hettie, pictured above. They were noticed at about eight weeks of age by a kind lady who started to feed them. Bec...Nessa...

The Moggie Blog: One in a Million
http://haworthcatrescue.blogspot.com/2011/04/one-in-million.html
Friday, 15 April 2011. One in a Million. We often use the phrase "one in a million" to describe something rare or even something we just hapen to like very much. In Jasper's case though, he really is a cat in a million - or according to some statistics - a cat in four million. Jasper is a very rare thing, a male tortoise shell cat. Genetics demonstrate that male cats cannot exist (see notes below), but our little Jasper is very much alive and male. Labels: male tortoise shell cat. View my complete profile.
