Dumb Friends' Friend : The Dumb Friends League animal refuge in Ferdinand Street, Camden Town, London, is a busy place. Cats are their particular care but dogs share the evening clinic with the cats. 1955 What with strays and boarders, there may be up to 150 cats to be looked after at a time. After a week unclaimed cats, who have not been found a new home, are destroyed. ©2006 TopFoto/Ken Russell
