Introducing The Cat’s Cradle The day also marked the official opening of The Cat’s Cradle - a specially designed cat hotel featuring ten beautifully crafted spaces for cats and kittens. This special project was the vision of our local interior designer Dee de Kock, who not only con- ceptualised the space but spent weeks fixing, scraping and painting. From dou- ble-storey cat kennels and climbing struc- tures to hammocks and an outdoor play area. Even our local knitters at Ribbons & Roses contributed the cat’s blankets. Thanks to the generosity of sponsors and donors, this “cat haven” now offers a safe, comfortable, environment for cats in our care - whether for boarding, medical treat- ment, or while awaiting adoption. If you would like to sponsor a ‘crib’ or contribute in any way, we would be grateful. Visitors
are always welcome to come and see this special space and learn more about the work GAWS is doing in the community. GAWS at Work While moments like these are worth cel - ebrating, much of GAWS’ work happens under more challenging circumstances. Over the past two months, a severe canine distemper outbreak has affected dogs across our valley, placing immense strain on both the community and GAWS resources. In response, nearly 1,000 vac- cinations have been carried out through door-to-door efforts by our dedicated volunteers and staff, led by the tireless Christine Glover. The next critical phase - administering booster vaccinations - is now underway to contain the spread of this devastating disease.
