Chris Jones is on the prowl for the most dedicated cat lover in the north.
The Thomastown pet shop manager wants to educate people about what it takes to care for their best feline friend.
“We are in celebration mode this month for all things cats because of the great news that when cared for in the right way, our cats are living longer,” he said. This month, Mr Jones is offering free cat manicures to ensure their claws are at a healthy length.
For the month of June, the store is raising money for Second Chance Animal Rescue in Campbellfield.
“We’re tying to raise as much as possible,” said Mr Jones, who will pass on 300 donated toys, cat food and other supplies to the Animal Rescue centre.
The Best Friends Pet Care Superstore manager, who owns two rescued tabby cats, also wants to encourage people to adopt rescued cats rather than opt for a pet shop kitten.
“Think of adopting first when looking for a new ‘forever friend’,” he said.
