Cat adoption in Gwent

If you are considering adopting one of our cats or kittens:

  • All our cats and kittens are advertised when ready here on our website, on our main Facebook group and our FB Adoption page
  • Please read our Hands Free Adoption Process to be sure you are able to comply
  • If so, please PM Glynis Davies or message our page to register your interest in a particular cat or kitten when advertised

We always have many beautiful cats of all ages in care needing a new start in life in loving permanent homes. Kittens and cats up to the age of 2 years old are very popular, but we usually have lots of older adult cats too who also deserve the best life we can find for them. The average life expectancy of a cat is 15-16 years old, so an 8 year old cat still has many good years to come.

There are many reasons why cats come to us - some of them have been left behind when their owners moved away, handed into us when a baby is born and the cat is no longer wanted, and some, sadly, have been mis-treated while others are not wanted as they are getting older. Some of our cats have had a difficult time, but they all deserve a loving, secure home.  If you have a kind heart, please consider one of our lovely cats who needs a helping hand in life. Thank you.

NB : All cats in our care are neutered (if old enough), fully vaccinated, micro-chipped, blood tested, worm and flea treated and Vet checked to ensure they are perfectly healthy when they leave us for their new homes. Kittens are provided with full cost vouchers for neutering when old enough.

OUR ADOPTION FEE

Kittens up to and including 6 months of age £95

Adults aged over 6 months £75

Thank you so much for considering a Gwent Cats Protection cat or kitten

Volunteer at Cats Protection Gwent Branch

We are always on the look out for people in the Gwent area who are willing to help with the following:

Home visiting

  • Before we home a cat we choose to visit the prospective home – first 2 visits will be with another home visitor before going it alone! It's a chance to chat about the cat and answer any questions

Fostering

  • Indoor fostering with spare room
  • Wildie kitten fosterer with spare room
  • Fosters need to drive for Vet visits etc

Transport

  • Picking up donations for shop and short term storage
  • Taking donations to shop in Abergavenny

Fund raising - usually at the weekends

  • People who will arrange events from start to finish
  • Someone to arrange / chase up / organize food bin allocations

Posters

  • We need as many people as possible to print off and display our posters for Cat Adoption Days and Bric-a-brac sales. Only 1 poster per person would really help us. These posters can be emailed to you. These can be in local shops/supermarkets/catteries/pet shops/in your car’s back window...ANYWHERE! If I can keep a list of who is putting where it would really help

Vets for posters

  • Ideally we need people who can ‘look after’ a vet local to them for printing and taking posters to them (rather than us posting them) 

Trapping

  • People who are available during the day or evening who can trap feral cats and take them to the vets for neutering/spaying & then return them to the place they were captured. Trapping equipment will be provided

eBay

  • Running our eBay account – gwentsouthcp – using both donated and bought in items

Collection boxes

  • Contact new places that may be prepared to have our collection box
  • Arrange regular emptying of boxes
