Some West Midlands cat lovers are planting roots of good merit through a beautiful and unique rescue operation.

Shropshire Cat Rescue in Shrewsbury takes in homeless, stray, abandoned, and unwanted cats and kittens and organizes veterinary care for feral felines in the area.

But particular to this charity is that it has 17 cats, all of which have been given up or found stray in what should be their golden years, who are now safe and comfortable in Moggies Retirement Village.

The cats enjoy the cushy life with volunteers taking time to look after them and even getting local kids to read to them once a month.

A video of the gated community shows a series of mini cottages surrounded by well-kept gardens where the cats are housed. Each cottage contains a bed, a litter tray, food and drink bowls, and various toys for up to two cats.

The clip also shows Moggie’s Mansion, a larger house with bigger toys and beds where the cats can hang out together.

“The shelter was intended to create an area for cats who were too elderly or had ongoing health conditions that needed regular treatment and monitoring to live out their days in comfort,” explains volunteer vet Susie.
