Online cake raffle raising money for animal charity

Andy Morris 23rd May, 2019   0

A TALENTED Rugby baker has cooked up a mouth-watering way to raise money for her favourite animal charity.

Pet lover Ginny Dole has made a cat-faced sponge cake for animal charity BARKS – the Banbury Animal Rescue and Kindness Service, which also operates throughout Warwickshire.

Ginny, who has a rehomed cat from BARKS, is raffling the cake online to raise money for the charity.

The winner will receive a freshly-baked replica of the cake.




Ginny said: “I make all sorts of celebration and event cakes, and came up with this idea as a novel way to support BARKS, having one of their cats myself.

“I’m hoping the cake will attract lots of ticket buyers – and, of course, the winner will most certainly be able to have their cake and eat it!”


Volunteer-run BARKS operates across Warwickshire, Northamptonshire and North Oxfordshire and rescues and cares for cats, kittens, puppies, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, hedgehogs and small rodents. In 2018 they saved and re-homed almost 200 cats and kittens and 350 animals in total.
