😻 Calling All Cat Lovers 😻

***Long post alert!***I support the CPL (Cats Protection League) and follow them on Instagram. I recently read about 2 tiny kittens that were rescued by the Fareham branch. Here is CPL link from when they were rescued:https://www.instagram.com/p/B16fVyzhtDb/?igshid=ffr795nqhbpv One of the kittens they named Nigel 😸he was healthy and was homed very quickly, but the other kitten, a female they called Nellie, has serious problems with her back legs, plus other health issues. However she was adopted and her owner (Charlotte) is desperately trying to help her. She is giving Nell hydrotherapy twice a day plus massage to strengthen her little legs but ultimately Nellie will need a complex spinal op which will be very expensive and her pet insurance is unlikely to cover it. Charlotte has just started a crowdfunding page and the link to it is shown at the top of Nellie's Instagram page. The problem is that Nell doesn't have many followers, so I don't think it will raise much money. Here is her link to follow her journey (the photos are adorable😻) from adoption to now:https://instagram.com/villanelle_kitty?igshid=3jgerrecl7pn  I don't personally know Charlotte but from reading the notes she puts on Instagram I don't think she does FB in order to share Nellie's plight. I don't do FB either so is where I would like your help. Please could you share this with any cat lovers you know and ask them to do the same? If enough people could donate just a couple of pounds we could all help Nell to get the operation she needs. Thankyou.
