If you're looking to get a cat then this (or the nearest Cat's Protection League Adoption Centre to you) is the place to head.
They have kittens and cats of all ages looking for good homes and have a fantastic programme in place to house the cats in their care - they will check your living arrangements and even do a home visit before you are able to take in a kitty. I am very much an animal person and this kind of devotion to make sure all of the cats are going to a safe and comfortable home makes me very happy.
They will only let you adopt very tiny kittens in pairs, older cats are allowed to go on their own. They ask for a minimum donation of £75 for a single cat and £150 for two kittens. That's a minimum, so dig deep if you are able.
When I was a kid my parents adopted 2 kittens from the CPL near to them in south London - you're not only being given healthy kittens but you're also donating to a fabulous cause.
If you're going to get a cat be sure you have access to a garden, there is nothing sadder than a cat sitting at the window of a flat, not having access to the outside world. It makes my heart ache. read more
