A CAT cafe will be held this weekend to raise funds for Allerton Cat Rescue.

It will run on Saturday (October 19) from 1pm until 4pm and is £10 per person, while children go free.

A spokesperson said: "Come along and have a tea, coffee, cake and buns.

"And also have chance to fall in love with our kitties who are looking for their forever home.

"All monies raised will go towards the rescue, reduce our ongoing vet bill, pay for food, litter and the day to day running of the rescue.

"If you’re a baker and would like to bring some cakes you’re more than welcome.

"Our address is 258 Allerton Road. Allerton. Bradford BD15 7QX."

Demand for Allerton Cat Rescue's services is growing so it is also appealing for people to sponsor a cage.

Volunteer Cathy Hulin said: “This is a great opportunity for big-hearted businesses and individuals to sponsor a cage - and promote their brand or name in front of our growing army of supporters on social media. 

"With over 25,000 followers on Facebook, and rising at pace, our site offers sponsors a great free advertising opportunity to connect with the local community. 

"We can put a small sign on your cage and promote businesses regularly using their logo when we send updates to our followers on our Facebook pages. 

“It also highlights their commitment to corporate social responsibility.”

Anyone who would like to support the rescue or would like more information should contact Cathy Hulin at cathyhulin@hotmail.co.uk or on mobile number 07815473240.
