CATS Protection Christmas Cat Food Collection has come to a close.

We would like to say a very big thank you to the public for their amazing generosity, and to Sainsbury's, Warndon; Tesco's, St Peter's; Severn Veterinary Centre, Warndon and MacArthur, Barstow & Gibbs for their kind co-operation in allowing us to collect on their premises.

We are also very grateful to Mr Foss, The Trinity, Worcester; Wilson's Pet Centre, Shrub Hill Retail Park, Worcester and Pets at Home, Blackpole who allow us to collect in their stores all year round.

In total we collected more than 6,000 items of cat food, which have been distributed to feed the many needy cats in our care.

We are a very active charity, which relies heavily on the generosity of the public, and we are very grateful for the support we receive. It makes a huge difference to our work.
