RESCUED cats and kittens are eating well this month, thanks to a VIP scheme run by an Evesham pet shop.

Evesham Cats Protection is one of the charities which is part of the scheme, run by Evesham Pets at Home.

Every time the VIP loyalty card is swiped when a purchase is made in store, the points are turned into money for the branch, which is based at 95 Pitchers Hill, Wickhamford.

The charity then receives a voucher every quarter to spend at the Pets At home store at Four Pools Retail Park.

Fran Holder, a volunteer at the branch, said: "We've collected a good total of points over the last few months and have now been able to stock up on much-needed kitten food, as it's the kitten season and we are getting through a lot of food.

"We would like to thank Evesham Pets at Home's staff and their customers who support our branch with the VIP scheme - we feel very fortunate."
