SOPHIE SOAPY THE SHOP CAT

Unfortunately, our little lucky black cat died recently.

We miss her friendly greetings. She kept us company in the shop and would lie in the windowsill listening to us and watching the birds in the trees.

Many of you will remember her saying hello as you browsed through the bric-a-brac. Soapy was definitely an outdoor cat, staying in her little hiding places throughout the worst of the winter weather. She stubbornly refused to be coaxed inside to keep warm.

Much to our worry and concern she loved to settle underneath the warm cars of the people visiting the Centre. In the summer she knew all the places to keep cool. Sadly, her nine lives ended a few weeks ago. The morning feeding time arrived and she was found in her favourite bed appearing to be soundly asleep.

Resting in Peace. Sophie Soapy

AMBASSADOR NOAKES

You may remember the story of Max and Noakes and will know that he is a rescue dog.  Tracey and Nick have now moved to live further south and Noakes is with them.  We wish them all the best in their new life and thank them for the support they have given Grande Daze.  Tracey made the lovely cake for our 10th Anniversary and Nick took the beautiful photographs of our Dog Walk.

Noakes will be a wonderful ambassador for the rescues as he travels with Nick and Tracey around the area of his new home.  Noakes – a very special companion.
