They have 26 older cats to be euthanised too. I imagine advertising 60 kittens on death row will attract more attention and tug at more heart strings!

Here is their Facebook group. Decoy Kitten Rescue | Facebook

i also know of several car rescues who have contacted tehm - but haven't had any response.

apparently they are not a proper charity either, some people have been thinking that they might be collecters! hmmmm

Many people go to the RSPCA, Woodgreen Animal Shelter, etc and don't find what they are looking for.

I wonder if the the 'big' shelters could point people in the direction of this one?

I went to the RSPCA and Woodgreen Animal Shelter for a few weeks solid and never felt like any of the kittens or cats were the 'right one'. If someone had pointed me in the direction of another rescue, I would have definitely gone.

I wouldn't mind fostering a couple of kittens (for as long as needed), but I would not be able to offer a permanent home.

I dont post on here much but after reading this on here and had a look around something just does not seem right about the place. No charity will ask for cheques to be made out to a person and it seems strange.

It could be someone that is breeding them for money and using the papers to get the cash in before christmas.

i'm a bit suspition as well! confused:

I just hope at the end of the day these poor kittens will find homes.
Maybe the newspaper would have more info on this subject.

Well, it says they're a registered charity:

The rescue centre, a registered charity, was set up three years ago by animals lovers Claire and John Hardwicke.

I would have some and let the cat rescue I work for know that these are needing homes, however, I won't be able to get down to Devon.

They seem suspicious to me and I think you're right, Chrisb.

If she was a rescue, she would have that money or having means / ways to get the money for an £800 bill..

I think they're breeding them, and getting the money for the cats.

"Claire Hardwicke All cheques have to be made out to 'Claire Hardwicke (decoy kitten rescue)' not just to Claire Hardwicke!! Otherwise they cannot be accepted as a donation!! Thankyou"
