Can you give Maggie the cat a loving home?

-

EVERY so often Woodlands Animal Sanctuary in West Lancashire gets the privilege of caring for an extra special character.

Maggie is definitely one of these characters – she went to the sanctuary in Holmeswood on July 12 last year when her family had to move to a new home and could not take her with them.

This is one of the most common reasons that cats need to be found new homes and it is due to no fault of their own.

For the last nine months Maggie has watched all of her neighbours – who came in after her – leave before her to their new loving forever homes.

Unfortunat­ely for Maggie she is black and white which, if you are a regular supporter of Woodlands Animal Sanctuary, you will know takes on average 70% longer to find homes for than any other colour.

Alex, one of the animal care managers at Woodlands, said: “Maggie is a unique and very misunderst­ood cat who really needs someone who can look past her coat colour and feisty side to love her for how and who she is.”

The whole team at Woodlands is desperate for Maggie to find a loving home and family, who are happy to give her the space and care that she requires.

Maggie is a spirited cat who does enjoy attention, however she is also a truly feisty feline.

She does not require the affections we humans like to impose on our pet cats and so she will let you know, in no uncertain terms, when she has had enough. That said, Maggie deserves another chance at happiness.

If you think you could be the type of person Maggie may tolerate in her life, then please get in touch with the team at Woodlands Animal Sanctuary either by calling 01704 828293 or emailing info@animalsanc­tuary.org.uk

Due to Maggie’s personalit­y there will be conditions on the type of home that will be considered for her.

Maggie does not socialise well with other cats and so if you already have a cat in your life Maggie will not be the companion you are looking for.

Woodlands have already stated that if a suitable home cannot be found for Maggie she will be allowed to move into the stable block and live alongside the ponies, donkeys, sheep and goats who already have their home there.

For more informatio­n about anything that has been featured please call Woodlands on 01704 828293.
