FAB at first consisted only of dedicated volunteers. They were faced with a list of unknowns about cat health that was infinitely long, and an empty money pot, making the task ahead of them dizzyingly vast. And yet they persevered.The first 10 years of the charity were spent just trying to unravel some of the many, many threads required to start understanding the diseases of cats. Advice was provided on things which could be found out, such as nutrition and husbandry, a few diseases and things known to poison cats. Despite many people calling for help – very few wanted to help in terms of providing the funds.

In 1967, there were finally enough funds to employ vet Charles Povey to undertake a project investigating a feline infectious disease at Bristol Veterinary School. However, a few years later in 1971, the charity reached crisis point. £2000 a year was needed to fund research and publish advice, but only £8 a month was being donated. Founder Joan Judd, due to ill-health, was seeking a successor as honorary secretary and it was certain that, without genuine active support, the organisation was doomed. Thanks to a vet called Mike Findlay who took on the honorary secretary post, and an honorary treasurer recruited, very reluctantly (he had no interest in cats and a daughter who was very allergic to fur!) from the local NatWest bank, the charity’s few resources were steered in the right direction, and FAB survived.
