The organisers are looking for beauticians, nail technicians, beauty therapists etc who would be willing to help the cats and kittens in their care by donating small quick treatments to guests in return for a donation to the adoption centre.

Spokesperson for the adoption centre, Ric Brown, said: " This is the first time that the centre has organised such an event and its hoped to be a fun filled event where guests can spend the night being pampered by giving a small donation to the centre. It is hoped that local businesses etc will be able to donate their services in return for guests paying a small donation to the centre. But we do need people to donate their services." He went on to say:" If anyone is able to help us out or would like more details they can email us at friendsofaxhayes@gmail.com or give the organiser, Veronica, a call on 01392 757193."
