The cats protection people have helped me rehome two domestic cats from Graemsay who were suddenly rendered homeless. It's great having a central network to find homes for these animals. Both cats had found their way to my home, but my own moggy didn't take well to interlopers and this caused us all distress so I was grateful for the help of the local cat protection folk. It's interesting hearing about the N Ronaldsay cat population. On Graemsay there are a number of farm cats which roam widely, as well as the feral population. Some have been neutered but most have not. > Sian > ------------------------------ > > Message: 6 > Date: Sun, 9 Sep 2007 12:04:20 EST > From: James Thompson <[email protected]> > Subject: [ORCADIA] Cats > To: [email protected] > Message-ID: <[email protected]> > > OK, a new subject.
