Cats Protection recognises the need to make the process of adopting a cat as quick and as easy as possible and this pilot homing centre will bring a modern approach to finding homes for unwanted cats.
Located in Ferndown, just outside Bournemouth, the homing centre will take in cats that are ready for adoption from volunteer-run branches in the surrounding area. This homing centre will provide an easy-to-reach, visible and modern environment for cats and kittens in need of homes.
Due to open in early 2010, the Ferndown Homing Centre will house 24 homing pens, five holding pens and three isolation pens. The homing pens will be in a courtyard style, ensuring each one has an open landscaped aspect.
The homing centre will offer visitors all the information and advice about cat care they need. It will also provide space for Cats Protection volunteers and staff to meet, a retail area, opportunities for school visits and other educational activities. We hope Ferndown Homing Centre will be an important part of the local community.
