2017 National Cat Awards: Outstanding Rescue Cat Finalists Announced

With the annual National Cat Awards just around the corner, we’re announcing the finalists for each of the six categories, including Furr-ever Friends, Hero Cat, Most Caring Cat, Outstanding Rescue Cat, Purina® Better Together and Cats Protection’s Special Recognition Award.

From stories of great bravery, to heart-warming tales of companionship between cats and humans, the National Cat Awards highlight the incredible impact cats have on their owners’ lives.

The Outstanding Rescue Cat category looks at felines adopted from animal welfare organisations.

Meet the finalists, Genie, Nala and Charlie, in our video playlist below.

Come back next week for our next set of finalists for the Most Caring Cat.

Winners will be announced at a ceremony on Thursday 3 August at London’s Savoy Hotel, where celebrity judges will also announce the National Cat of the Year 2017.
