Mr. Kit decided that he would like to live with us about three years ago after my old cat died. Before then he had begun to lurk around the back door, pathetically thin and politely asking whether there was any food to spare. So I started to put food out in a dish.
Although he looked like a stray, we discovered that he came from quite a good home, not far away, but for some reason he seemed not to be thriving. According to information given to us he is about 15 years old.
	Squeak is the Guard Cat at L&J Tyres, she turned up as a half-starved young cat a few years ago and now is well established with her own preferred places on the premises.
She frequently converses with Tony and his partner, and a few favoured customers, but can also adopt a very supercilious attitude to attempts at befriending.
	This picture of Snookie was taken in November '97 when he was a tiny little scrap in a large collection of cats and kittens. My Mum is positive he would not have survived had she not taken him home. He is looking rather scruffy as he tends to get over enthusiastic about codliver oil and had had a spoonful all over him the day before the photo was taken.

The Cats' Protection Leagueis an official contact for rescuing cats and a worthy cause to support if you are a catlover.
