The cats turned up about 8 months ago and we couldn't find the owner and now the female has given us some kittens.
We would love for the two adult cats to go together as they are great friends, but are open to anything, as long as they all go to great, caring homes.

ANZAC POPPY

Pamela Neighbourly Lead from Templeton

The leaf should be positioned at 11 o'clock to represent the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, the time that World War One formally ended.
He was worried that younger generations wouldn't understand this and his generation wouldn't be around for much longer to teach them.
