Hello, my name is Chekov and I am one of the resident cats at The Cat & Rabbit Rescue Centre.
You may remember back at the end of 2023 the rescue was pleased to be able to help twelve cats from Oman. There was a lovely lady who helped street cats in Oman by bringing them to the UK to give them the chance to find real loving homes of their own. I was so happy to hear that the twelve cats that came to CRRC all found the homes they deserved. My staff kept in touch with the lady as she had more cats at her home that needed help. We knew we wanted to help but unfortunately, over the summer, the rescue was so full-on cats and kittens from our local area that it just wasn't possible. The lady continued to look after them in her home until we had space at the rescue. Finally in November, after being a bit quieter, we took in eight more cats that had travelled to the UK from Oman. The eight cats are now all settling in at The Centre, they are quite shy, but it is a big change for them. I am so pleased that we were able to help again. From living on the streets in Oman, not knowing where their next meal is coming from these eight cats will now finally find the homes they deserve. I can't wait to see them find lovely new homes.
Thank you to everyone who came to our Christmas Fayre at the end of November. Even with the stormy weather my staff and volunteers were so happy to see so many of our supporters make the effort to come and support the work of CRRC. I am so pleased to be able to share that we raised £3,000! This will make such a big difference and will mean we can continue to be here for the animals that need us. I want to share a special thank you to the volunteers who gave up their time to help on the day, we couldn’t have done it without them.
See you next time. Love Chekov.

PET OF THE MONTH - Bobble
This time we would love to introduce you to a lovely female cat called Bobble. Bobble is just 11 months old and has been with us since November after she had been living as a stray. Although initially a little shy she really is a very friendly girl who loves people. Once you have said hello she will be all over you looking to have a fuss made of her. She does not get on with other cats so would like to be the only pet in her home. Bobble is a friendly girl so she could happily live with calm children.
If you think you may be able to offer Baked Bean a loving home, please give the centre a call on 01243 967111 or visit our website www.crrc.co.uk.
