Adopt a cat

Welcome to Colne Valley Cats Protection (ESSEX)

If you've found a cat on the website that you're interested in homing, send an enquiry through using our form or email enquiries@colnevalley.cats.org.uk and include your name, address and contact number




(We do not charge for cats to come into our care, but we are grateful for a donation towards the costs of having your cat in our care.)


We charge £75 for all our cats and £95 for kittens under the age of 6 months. However, you can Adopt with Confidence as all our cats are:

  • Vet checked
  • Vaccinated against Flu, Enteritis and FeLV
  • Defleaed and dewormed
  • Microchipped
  • Neutered (if old enough at the time of adoption) The combined costs of all the above amounts to around £200 per cat. We also give 4 weeks FREE Petplan insurance.

Our cats are being fostered in individual private homes, we do not have a central adoption shelter. We therefore do home visits before potential adoptees  view our cats. This makes sure that people visit a cat (or cats) that is (are) suitable for the home they are offering. Many thanks.
