Support Us
At Cats Protection we welcome volunteers with open arms, whether you are young or old, male or female, there's a place for you with us!
Why become a volunteer?
Volunteering is the most worthwhile thing you can ever do. It gives a real sense of achievement, allows the development of new skills and the social possibilities are endless!
Much of Cats Protection's work is carried out by volunteers, many of whom have full time jobs too. You can do lots of different things at a branch, from hands on work with the cats as a fosterer or feline chauffeur, to public relations or fundraising. If you have a skill then we can use it! All you need to do is get in touch with us.
Sound good?

SPONSOR A CAT PEN TODAY!
We are offering you a unique opportunity to sponsor a cat pen for one year.
Our pens are used to temporarily home cats that come to us through no fault of their own-
-
strays looking for foster homes
-
long term cats
-
ferals
-
cats that people hand in to us because they can't keep them any more e.g. have become allergic to them; had to move to different accommodation where they can't have pets; divorce; made homeless; the cat being bullied by another one in the household, etc. etc.
We make them as comfortable as possible, give them lots of TLC, good food and veterinary care as required. This can all be extremely expensive.
It's not like a real home with their own person/dedicated slave, but a temporary refuge until the right person comes along to offer them a new home. We would welcome your contribution to their well-being.
If you would be interested in sponsoring a cat pen , please contact Suze on 01442 214459
