Welcome to Cats Protection Scunthorpe Branch

We’re here to support cats and kittens in Scunthorpe covering postcodes: DN15, DN16, DN17, DN18, DN19, DN20, DN21 and DN38.

Run by a small group of passionate, cat-loving volunteers, we’re dedicated to improving the lives of cats and kittens in Scunthorpe, working to find loving new homes for local cats in our care, offering support with neutering and lost and found cats, as well as general education and awareness within the Scunthorpe area. You can find out more about the work of Cats Protection here.

Cat adoption in Scunthorpe

Could you provide a loving new home for a cat in Scunthorpe? During the process of adopting a cat from us, we’ll consider everything from your potential pet’s personality and how this fits with your lifestyle, to your home environment – creating the perfect match for both cat and owner and the start of a wonderful feline friendship.

Cats available for adoption from Cats Protection Scunthorpe Branch are featured below. To express your interest in a particular cat, please enquire via their listing. If you have any general enquiries about your suitability, or the adoption process, please call us on 0345 260 1450 or email us.

OUR ADOPTION FEE IS CURRENTLY £80 BUT DUE TO A HIGH INCREASE IN VETERINARY CARE AND FOOD FOR CATS IN CARE WE WILL BE INCREASING THE ADOPTION FEE TO:-

£100 PER KITTEN

£90 FOR AN ADULT 

This will be effective from 1st January 2025.

THIS FEE IS VERY COMPETITIVE AND INCLUDES VACCINATIONS,  CHIPPING, FLEA/WORM TREATMENT AND NEUTERING IF NOT ALREADY DONE.

WE WILL PAY FOR ANY VETERINARY COSTS FOR ANY AGE RELATED ILLNESS IN THE OLDER CATS IN OUR CARE IF KNOWN BEFORE BEING ADOPTED OUT. THIS WILL BE MENTIONED IN THEIR WRITE UPS.

 

DUE TO A FEW MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC RECEIVING FINANCIAL HELP FROM US AND NOT ACTUALLY PAYING THE MONEY BACK TO OUR ACCOUNT WE ARE UNABLE TO HELP FURTHER PEOPLE UNTIL THIS IS RESOLVED. WE ARE A CHARITY AT THE END OF THE DAY AND HELP WHERE WE CAN BUT CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE MONEY WHEN WE HAVE SPENT IT WITH THE BEST INTENTIONS OF HELPING A CAT/KITTEN NEEDING VETERINARY TREATMENT.

 

NOTE REGARDING DIRECT HOMINGS - Can we inform you that anyone taking on a Direct Homing from our site has no input from Cats Protection other than advertising for the current owner to help them rehome their cat(s).

In the event that anything goes wrong with the homing either with medical issues or behaviour then you MUST go back to the original owner to rectify this. It is NOT the responsibility of Cats Protection to sort out any issues. A Direct Homing is between the original owner and the potential new owner to sort. We are merely offering a free service to advertise the cat on our site.

 

If you are struggling to pay for neutering of your cat/kitten or on a low income/benefits please get in contact and we may be able to help you with a part paid voucher to help with the cost.  The vouchers are worth £45 for a male and £70 for a female. The balance is paid by yourself to your own vet. 

The voucher price may fully cover the cost of neutering depending on your chosen vet.

 

All owned cats must now be microchipped since it became law on June 10th 2024. 

They must be chipped before they reach 20 weeks of age.

Lost and found cats in Scunthorpe

Have you lost or found a cat in Scunthorpe? We’re here to help you. To report a lost cat, or if you have found a cat in the Scunthorpe area, please send details and photos, to treasurer@scunthorpe.cats.org.uk

This register has been set up for people to report any missing cats and also any that have been found straying in the area. Any cat reported to us as missing will be put on the register for a period of approx one year, or until we are notified otherwise.

Please send a photo of your lost cat for publishing on this register, please do so in jpeg format. This will help greatly in tracing your missing pet. Without a photo you have less chance of being reunited with your pet. 

WE DO NOT KEEP ALL FOUND CATS IN OUR CARE UNLESS STATED

This is a voluntary service and no charge is made, but any donations to Branch funds would be gratefully accepted. 

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR CAT IS MICROCHIPPED TO HELP US REUNITE THEM WITH THEIR OWNERS. IF YOU MOVE PLEASE UPDATE THE DATABASE.
