2 Cats Needing a Home

A dear friend’s mother has gone into care and has 2 cats; Cricket aged 10, a Manx, and Elizabeth, age 13.

These 2 need a good home (separate or together)– they are both healthy, shots up to date and their health records are at Chemainus Animal Hospital.

If anyone is interested, would you please call me. They are actually lovely cats.

Thanks so much
