UPDATE: SADLY AS A PRECAUTION WE ARE CLOSED AT THE MOMENT DUE TO COVID-19 NO CATS ARE BEING RE-HOMED AND WE CANNOT TAKE ANY IN AT THE MOMENT. WE ARE VERY SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE HOPEFULLY IT WILL NOT BE FOR LONG 🙁
2019 was a very busy year for us as a small rescue, sadly people are still not neutering their cats or microchipping which is the best way they can be reunited with their owner, we re-homed 58 adult cats and 70 kittens and re-united only 4 cats with their owner due to being microchipped. Thank you so much for everyone’s support during 2019 🙂 Lets hope 2020 is a good one 🙂 Below some of our expenditure for 2019 which is why we rely on your support 🙂
All cats and kittens adopted from Sleapy Cat Rescue come with 5 weeks free insurance – Whatever their age! Agria pet insurance.
Please note all viewings are by appointment only ring Eve 07743 644 795

Update on “Our Special Boy Dave”
Dave went to the vets for the day last Friday sadly his glucose curve was abysmal, he is insulin resistant, they have taken more bloods to test for Acromegaly if this comes back positive it will not be good for Dave as he has been through so much already, poor lad is still incontinent as well and treatment would be radiotherapy and an operation which would be specialist, I cannot put him through all that, he looks depressed as it is and who can blame him :'( Will keep you informed, the test results take 7/10 days 🙁
Latest Update on Dave
Our special boy Dave has been very unwell, thinking he had another urine infection I got a sample and took him to our vets on 4th Oct, they took bloods and tested the urine which was found to have blood in it, it also showed from the bloods that he is now diabetic as well as being epileptic 🙁 poor Dave, we are struggling to get the right dose of insulin, he came back with antibiotics, needles and insulin, he started to be incontinent so needed incontinent pads to lay on, he’s had an appointment every tuesday to check levels and a glucose curve every friday for 3 wks and is due again on Fri 1st Nov, each curve costs £120 once we get his insulin correct the incontinence should stop and then we can investigate why he keeps getting urine infections and always has blood in it, he had x rays and a ultra sound scan last year which didn’t really show much so this means he will need a CT Scan which will be in the region of £1500.00. Would anyone like to sponsor our special boy? He has been with us since 16th Feb 2010 and already has medication for his epilepsy twice a day and now twice daily insulin injections. If you would like to sponsor Dave you can donate on here and set up a monthly donation even £5 a month would help as no amount is too small and would be most appreciated, if you would like further information please contact me Eve on our contact us page
Richard & Tia Home from Home these two are NOT at the shelter
Richard & Tia are brother and sister 11yrs old and can be a little shy around strangers but once they know you they are fine, very young at heart and very affectionate, no good with dogs. They are indoor & outdoor cats but do have a litter tray indoors. They are both neutered and chipped and the owner is in the process of ensuring vaccinations, worming & fleaing are up to date Richard has the dark stripe down his nose. They both like to eat Whiskers 11+ wet food and Whiskers dry. We are trying to help this lady re-home these two beauty’s due to her having life changing surgery which will result in her having Immunol Suppression so she can’t be around them after November. Please note these two are NOT at the shelter it is a home from home and there will be a donation which must be discussed with the owner. They are in Castlefields Shrewsbury at the moment.
