THERE will be a chance to meet cats in need of a home at a sanctuary’s open day.

The event has been organised at Chestnut Cat Sanctuary in Thornwood Common, after a drop in the number of people able to give its feline residents a ‘forever home’.

As well as a chance to meet the cats and kittens, there will be a cake stall, face painting and a raffle.

The event will take place on August 29 from 11am to 2pm.
