Adopting a cat

To view the cats that we have for adoption, please scroll down this page.

The following hints might help you with your choice

Offering a cat a new home is always a big decision, especially as many cats now live into their late teens and early twenties! A cat is for life and should be seen as a long-term commitment. Each cat or kitten has its own personality and needs, and they make wonderful companions and very rewarding pets.

Before going to a new home, every cat in our care is:
- Fully health-checked by a vet.
- Treated for fleas and worms.
- Vaccinated.
- Microchipped.
- Neutered, depending on age.
- Homed with 4 weeks free pet insurance.

The average cost of looking after a cat in our care can reach well over £150, and that doesn't include any essential veterinary treatment. Cats Protection receives no government funding and therefore relies solely on members of the public to ensure we can continue our work.
For this reason, we now ask for an adoption fee of £60 for a kitten (£100 for two), £50 for an adult and £30 for a senior over 7 years.  Of course any additional donations are gratefully received!

Cats will be homed taking careful note of the new environment and matching it to the temperament of each individual.
