Meet our new mascot!
July 24, 2020

It was a tough choice and a close race, but we finally have our winning design!

Introducing…

Congratulations to Alfie, who created Captain Snuggles and was inspired by his very own cat Domino, for creating a design that our followers loved just as much as we did. We hope you enjoy your prizes of Disney vouchers and a photoshoot kindly donated by Hayley Gell Photography.

We can’t wait to see illustrator and children’s writer Emma Woodthorpe work her magic and bring Alfie’s design to life, which we’ll be sharing with you in the coming weeks.

Captain Snuggles has many adventures awaiting him, and we look forward to welcoming him onto the team to help us protect cats and raise awareness about just how amazing they truly are.
