We hope to re-organise this event again in the springtime. 🙂
We are going to organize a late autumn visit to the local animal refuge, La Protezione Animali di Mendrisiotto e Basso Ceresio..situated in Melano.
Beverly is on the committee for the refuge, a volunteer along with several animal-mad ladies along with a few husbands roped in to help out with the ‘heavy’ stuff!!
Taken over by the small committee two years ago when the previous owner passed away, it has been a long haul to get it up to the standard it is today.
A total of 74 cats, along with several rabbits, birds, degu and a chinchilla make up the family all lovingly cared for.
We look for new forever homes for our animals but those who are not re-homed stay with us for their natural lives.
Penny and Beverly would like to invite members to come along, with some tasty pieces of cooked chicken or ham if they wish to make a cat their new best friend!!
Followed by tea and cakes at Beverly Ortelli’s home.
