PAWS AND CLAWS ANIMAL RESCUE SERVICE Registered Charity No 281075 2022 - Most fundraising events held during the year continue to make money but several of our bigger events were cancelled this year due to public mourning for the Queen. Collections in Supern]arkets which have all been very successful in the past were still not perniitted. We are partnered with our local Pets at Home store in Burgess Hill, this means we receive donated money from the Christmas and Spring event also we can have the contents of the dumper where pet food is left. We can have a stall in the store whenever we like which helps with P.R. and fundraising. Our sponsorship scheme continues to do well and we have received several legacies which have been a great help. We have invested some of the legacy rnoney received in a high interest account suitable for charities only this continues to make a very good return for us. Rehoming has continued still bul with less interest due we feel to the cuent economic situation with people unwilling to commit to the cost of having a kittenlcat. During the year most of the time all our pens were in use but we have helped other charities when they are full and the situation is urgent with the cat needing immediate help. Following the lifting of COVID restrictions we have been asked to tske in older cats when their owners have finally gone into care these are usually very costly needing vaccinations brought up to date and dentals. These older cats are usually difficult to home also but this year we have been fortunate in homin8 several to homes known to us. We have also taken a number of unneutered toms which again need veterinary treatment and often do not adapt to domestic life therefore needing outside / rural homes these are often difficult to find. Our plans for the future are that we continue to help as many cats as possible either with assisted neutering or rehoming.
