‘Dear rural friends of Horley and surroundings. Are any of you in need of feral cats for a farm or stable setting? BARKS (Banbury Animal Rescue & Kindness Service), with whom I volunteer, have a litter of feral kittens and three-four of them will need a home in a few weeks’ time. We try to ‘turn’ them to being domesticated – and some will move in that direction – but at least three of these little critters need to go to a home where they will be well sheltered, fed and cared for but they will be ‘working cats’. (Two more are already going to a good semi-feral home, thanks to the kindness of a local villager.) They will arrive neutered and microchipped.
