Welcome to the web pages for the East Northumberland branch of Cats
Protection. Please look around to see the lovely cats we have available
for homing, find out about coming events and see how you can help our
work.
GIVE AN OLDER CAT A HOME!
Kitten season is on it's way but in order to help as many abandoned kittens and pregnant cats as possible we need to find homes for the adult cats we have in our care. Lovely cats like Saskia, pictured right, a young mum who needs a loving home after caring for kittens of her own. If you can give a home to Saskia, Maurice, or any of the other cats in our care please call the helpline - 07749 713142 or email bedlingtoncats@live.com.
Next event featuring Northumberland Cats Protection stall is Sat June 2nd - Seghill Gala Day
Seghill, 12 - 4pm
We shall have our usual Teddy game, lucky bags, goodies to buy, information on cats needing homes, cat care, and subsidised neutering. Come and say hello - and if you have any questions on cat care/neutering or would like to become a helper - please ask!
About East Northumberland Branch
We are a small group of dedicated volunteers working from our own homes to care for cats. We do not have an office or a shelter and many of us do the work on top of full time jobs. We get some support from Cats Protection's HQ but fundraise to support the work we do. If you would like to donate to help us with our work please click on the bucket above.
The promotion of neutering is central to what we do. If you have a cat but can't afford to get it neutered please call our helpline (
07749 713142) to see if you qualify for a voucher to help you. Unneutered cats are more likely to stray, get into fights, get injured and contract diseases such as feline leukaemia or FIV. An unneutered cat can be responsible for up to 20,000 descendants in 5 years!
Why Adopt a Cat From Us?
Adopting a cat from Cats Protection means
- that your cat has been health checked by a vet
- that it will have had at least it's first vaccination (kittens of 9 - 12 weeks) or be fully vaccinated (all other cats)
- be neutered, or will be provided with a voucher for neutering
- will have been treated for fleas and worms
- will have been cared for to very high standards
We ask for an adoption fee of £50 per cat (£25 for each additional cat adopted). This is considerably less than other comparable organisations many of which do not give your cat the start we do. If in doubt, ask them!
