Your Summer Sponsorship update - Cat Pods

Your sponsorship gives abandoned cats like Lila and her kittens a safe place to recover. And this summer, during kitten season, support like yours is crucial. So thank you.

Lila’s recovery story

We rescued Lila and her kittens after they were abandoned. With nowhere to live and no way to feed her offspring, Lila needed help fast.

Thanks to you, we were able to save these cats and look after them at our RSPCA Stapeley Grange cattery. Our vets made sure they were all okay before we gave Lila the safe space she needed to raise her kittens.

During an important time in their development, your sponsorship kept Lila’s kittens fed and healthy. You also helped us take care of Lila, eventually getting her out of her shell and showing off her brilliant personality.

She loves to play, have a good fuss and she’s always purring.

Lila’s living her best life

When Lila’s kittens were old enough, we weaned and separated them. Then, once her mothering duties were over, Lila’s fun, playful side came out.

Lila quickly found her new forever home, a house with two other cats and two doting owners. Here, she gets all the love and attention she deserves, especially from her new owners’ grandchildren, who love coming to visit her.

Remember, it’s your support that made all of this possible. Thanks to your sponsorship, Lila was able to raise her kittens and then live the happy life she deserves. Thank you!
