31 July 2010Lorriane and Nita (right, centre) of Kats and Kits are presented with a cheque by Julie Leighton. Almost exactly a year ago we were very pleased to announce that our new Devizes mayor Councillor John Leighton had made Kats&Kits one of his charities for his mayoral year along with Wiltshire Air Ambulance and Dorothy House Hospice. Councillor Leighton and his wife Julie were great cat lovers and visited us several times. Sadly eight months into his mayoral year Councillor Leighton died and it was a very emotional occasion when the three beneficiaries of his fund were presented with their cheques by Julie Leighton at Devizes Town Hall this week. Raising money for animal welfare is very difficult in the present economic crisis, so we are very grateful for the generous gesture made by John and Julie when they chose us to benefit from the mayoral appeal.

About Kats & Kits:Kats & Kits is a long established cat sanctuary based in the depth of the UK's mystical Wiltshire countryside, on the edge of Salisbury Plain, near the white horses of Alton Barnes and Westbury. Run by a small dedicated team we aim to provide a home to rescued cats where re-homing is not a viable option. This blog documents the daily challenges the group has overcome since 1994 to provide care and shelter for abandonded, stray and unwanted cats.
