Sheridan G aunt from Cats Protection added: “It’s great to get this support from a local business like Amazon and I’d like to thank Lee and his team for their generosity. The donation will help us continue to offer a high level of care for our cats and kittens and we’re really grateful to Amazon for the support.”
