Welcome to Cats Protection Bury St Edmunds & Stowmarket Branch
We're here to support cats and kittens in Bury St Edmunds & Stowmarket, covering postcodes: CO10, IP14, IP22, IP23, IP29, IP30, IP31, IP32, IP33, IP6, IP7, IP8.
Run by a small team of dedicated, cat-loving volunteers, we're passionate about improving the lives of cats and kittens in the Bury St Edmunds & Stowmarket area, working to find loving new homes for cats in our care, and offering support with the cost of neutering cats, lost & found cats as well as general education and awareness within the Bury St Edmunds & Stowmarket area. You can find out more about the work of Cats Protection here.
All our work is voluntary and we have a dedicated team of volunteers without whom we could not carry out the vital work we do to help the cats and kittens in our area. We don't have a central cattery but have fosterers who care for our cats in purpose built cat chalets in their gardens.

Cat Adoption
We believe in matching the right cat to the right home. That's why we look at everything from your potential pet's personality to where you live - creating the perfect match for both cat and owner.
Our adoption fee is £75 for an adult cat, and £95 for a kitten under 6 months. For this adoption fee you can be sure that your new companion has received a health check by a veterinary professional, has been vaccinated, spayed or neutered, treated for fleas and worms, given additional medical treatments if required and microchipped. One month's free Pet Plan Insurance is also included.
All our rescue cats need to be homed where they have access to explore a safe garden via a cat flap. Cats have a natural tendency to explore, so allowing them free access to the outside gives them mental stimulation and reduces stress. Benefits include: exercise, variety, ability to express natural behaviours and space outside the household when needed.
