Thanks to donations and sponsorship, the retirement village was built in 2009 to create comfortable homes within the rescue for senior and super senior kitties.<\/p><p>The owner and co-founder of the rescue, Marion Micklewright, was tired of seeing older cats get passed over for adoption and subsequently put to sleep simply because they were old. Som she decided to do something about it.  Shropshire was created in 1991 and moved to Micklewright and her husband Richard&#8217;s current home address in 1998. Today there are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.upworthy.com\/this-guy-went-viral-for-becoming-an-unexpected-cat-dad-and-the-internet-melted-rp2\" target=\"_self\">cats wandering<\/a> the retirement village who are over 20 years old.
