Battersea’s World Cup Kittens
To celebrate the World Cup, Battersea Dogs & Cats Home has announced its own squad of 11 kittens, all named after England’s top players.

The furry team are just some of the 52 kittens at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home looking for new homes this June. Could you adopt a Rooney, Lampard, Crouch or Cole?
 
Rehomer Ros Davies says: “All of the kittens are great fun to be around and will make brilliant companions. We don’t want any to be left sitting on the bench this summer.”
 
She adds: “With the World Cup coming up, more people are likely to be spending their summer at home rather than abroad. For some this is the ideal time to rehome a kitten, as they can dedicate more time getting to know their new pet.”

If you can offer one of the World Cup kittens or an adult cat a home please contact Battersea on 0207 627 9234 or email rehoming@battersea.org.uk
