Story
Cats Gallore is a small local cat rescue charity based in Hainault, Essex and run by Anna Seymour.
In the past 6 years Anna has come to the rescue of 900 stray cats who are now safe and off the streets of Hainault. These cats require treatment whether it be urgent veterinary care or simply flea and worming treatment which can run into hundreds of pounds per cat. Anna is self funded paying for these neglected cats out of her own pocket.
These cats and messages asking for help just keep coming especially during this cost of living crisis.
I would love to help Anna continue helping these cats in desperate need so I’m running the 2024 London Marathon in aid of Cats Gallore.

1 year agoWeek 5 of training done ✔️ 43 miles of running for the week including a 16 miler today from Chingford to St Katherine’s Dock. Anna is holding a male cat this week with FIV, rescued a female cat living in a garden, scanned & reunited 2 cats and still caring for many cats and kittens at home. That’s over 30 pouches of cat food and 15l of litter a day not to mention cleaning products and other bits and bobs. Please if you can spare a little donation towards my fundraising to help Anna’s amazing work we’d be so grateful!! Thank you x

1 year agoWeek 4 of training ✔️ It’s been a recovery week with less miles so my legs have a chance to rest before the miles increase. The temperatures outside have varied & getting the clothing layers right is hard! Anna had another busy week trapping cats from a colony, dealing with a mummy cat delivering stillborn kittens & rescuing cats being given away for free on the internet. It really is non stop & Anna is a legend, which is why I really want to fundraise for her. Please if you can spare anything at all we would be so grateful. Thank you !

1 year agoWeek 3 ✔️ . It’s been a busy week- 39 miles of running with a few runs in minus degrees ! It’s been a busier week for Anna though. She’s rescued mummy cat Ellie with her son, Joe. She’s trapped 4 ferals & still hoping to catch their sibling. All cats will be neutered (£50-70 & receive flea/worm treatment. Anna has also seen a specialist regarding a stray cat’s eye problem. Let’s not forget all the food & litter used!! So please if you can spare a few pennies to sponsor me this will make a huge difference & help Anna to help more cats.
