RSPCA'S 'Adoptober' drive


Throughout October, the national RSPCA launched its 'Adoptober' rehoming campaign, urging people to adopt a rescue animal from the charity. The RSPCA rescued more cats than any other


animal last year - including 339 in Cheshire, as a result of calls to it’s national cruelty line. Nationally, RSPCA inspectors rescued the equivalent of more than 60 cats per day - or 22,000 over the whole year. This is more than any other animal nationally


and is four times the number of dogs (5,930). At Stapeley Grange, we help rehome cats who


come in via the RSPCA inspectorate. Sadly we do know that cats are an extremely


misunderstood pet and can often find themselves the victims of poor care. Cats can also become victims of air gun attacks


as well as poisonings both accidental and deliberate, just like dogs they can also become


14


victims of over breeding and over population. We know that the answer to a lot of the problems


relating to cats in this country is raising the rates of neutering which in turn will lead to fewer unwanted animals coming into our centres and branches. We are calling for cat owners to neuter their cats


at around 4 months old, rather than 6 months, which can greatly reduce the risk of them getting pregnant and owners being stuck with an unwanted litter. If you are thinking of taking on an animal we


would always urge people to look into adopting a rescue pet, as our centres are full of loving cats of all shapes and sizes looking for forever homes.
