Jackie and her Truslees are very sad to announce the passing of one of the
Sanctuary's best loved characters. Jerry was an extremely popular and friendly
resident at the Sanctuary. When Jerry arrived the vet identified health problems
which had stunted his groMh and his condition was such that he becarne a
permanent resident. Visitors to the Sancluary fell in love with this cheeky
ginger gentleman as soon as they saw him, He was always mislaken for a
kitten due to his diminutive stature, but his personality filled the room. Jerry
loved human companionship, but every kitten season he shone like the little
star he was. Every kitten which had been rescued from distressing and
kaumatic circumstances would gravilate to Jerry. He was their "uncle' and
would comfort them, cuddle them and be a stable rock in their turbulent young
lives.
It is impossible to state how many kittens Uncle Jerry helped during his years
at the Sanctuary, but he possessed a natural talent for giving them the comfort.
they so desperately needed during their recovery. Jerry will be tremendously
missed.

Forever Home.
This little bundle of fluff came to Jackie in dire need of medical attention.
However love and cuddles from Jackie as well as every volunteer, (that
Mie-Mie managed to wrap around her little paw,) seemed to pay off. Though
small for her size Mie - Mie has now grown into a healthy, beautiful little girl.
She has recently moved into a loving forever home and all the volunteers
are sad to see her go but are happy that she beat the odd. Jackie would like
to say a big thank you to all the cats supporters wilhout whose help success
stories like this wouldn't be possible.

Cat Abuse Treatment Society gained charitable status on the 18th January
1995. Since then it has been run entirely by volunteers whose only reward is to
see the cats happy and healthy. The cats are cared for using donations from
our generous supporters along with any money raised at fundraising events
organised by the trustees and volunteers.
The charity currenlly operates from a purpose built sanctuary at the rear of
Jackie's council house. All work is undertaken by volunteers who monitor the
cats and tend to their needs.
The sanctuary itself consists of a number of chalets where each cat can have
their own personal space. Central to these chalels are communal areas where
the cats can eat, play or just watch the world go by. ln addition there is a
separate area of the sanctuary, accessible to cats from Jackie's front garden.
This area provides food and shelter for the local stray and feral cats. lt has also
become an area where the local wildlife will come for food and water.

The sancluary is in dire need of refurbishment. lt is a wooden, mesh and
Perspex struclure, most ofwhich has been slanding for over 20 years, is in
need of repairing. The Perspex roof has holes in it where fireworks came
through in November of 2011, Please can you help by giving desperately
needed donations to replace this section of roof. These repairs will keep our
traumatised cats and kittens ,many of lhem are cruelty cases, safe and secure
within lhe sanctuary. lf you know of any roofer willing to donate his time or
materials towards this project contact Jackie on (0114) 2451781.
Due to the mobility problems of some of our cats such as those with Cerebral
Palsy, the sanctuary is in need of more (larger version) litter trays, Financial
restraints, caused by a reduction in donalions to the charity, have meant that
we are slruggling to purchase even the most basic equipment
