Cat adoption in East Kent

Could you provide a loving new home for a cat in East Kent? 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 East Kent 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 email our Adoption Team Leader at: adoptionteamleader@canterbury.cats.org.uk.

Please note that we do not have a main shelter all of our cats are placed in foster homes until we can find them a new home. This means we do not have a central venue for people to come and see the cats in our care. Any enquiries please email us.

We have an adoption fee of £100 per cat or £120 per kitten under six months old.

Have a look at the Our Adoption Fee Explained information on the Cats Protection main website to find out more.
