Founded in 2013, Feline Friends London aims to offer sanctuary to vulnerable cats and those at risk of unnecessary euthanasia across London. Run by volunteers, we rely entirely on donations to provide vet checks and treatments to our cats. We also help take care of several feral colonies providing neutering and supporting feeders. Our cats and kittens, including those with severe health problems, are placed in long term foster care until we can find them a permanent home. All donations will go towards the care of our cats and help us to save more lives.
Our good friend, Pockets Warhol, has kindly donated this fabulous portrait of Pickle the cat to auction and raise funds for our vital rescue work. Pickle, a gorgeous female tabby, was rescued by Feline Friends and was one of 16 cats from a hoarding situation in London in late 2020. Pickle was placed into foster care with actor and comedian, Ricky Gervais and Jane Fallon, author of Queen Bee, and they soon fell helplessly in love with her. Pickle, our most famous foster fail, is now a well-known fixture on social media, having her own Twitter account and featuring on both Ricky and Jane’s Instagram and Twitter accounts daily.
The incredibly talented Pockets Warhol is a capuchin monkey and resident at Story Book Farm Primate Sanctuary near Sunderland, Ontario, Canada. Pockets came to media attention in 2011 when the sanctuary held a fundraiser featuring 40 paintings by the monkey. Since then, he has collaborated with many artists, including Martin Gore of Depeche Mode for his new EP "The Third Chimpanzee”. A long list of celebrities have bought his paintings and he still sells many canvasses to support his sanctuary work and many other causes.
Support us by bidding on this beautiful painting of Pickle by Pockets Warhol - all funds raised go directly towards helping the cats in our care and the rescue efforts for future cats.
