CATS and kittens in Gloucestershire charity Cotswolds Dogs and Cats Home (CDCH) are in need of support, as the charity issues an urgent spring appeal.

CDCH says it faces an “overwhelming surge” in vulnerable cats and kittens needing help.

According to the RSPCA, abandonment reports have risen year on year, from 2021 due various factors, including the surge in pet ownership during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the ongoing cost of living crisis.

A spokesperson said: “Every contribution goes directly towards providing food, safety, and veterinary care supporting cats and kittens in their journey until they’re ready to find a loving forever home.”
