Welcome to Cats Protection Berkshire Cat Centre

We're here to support cats and kittens in Newbury, covering postcodes: RG14, RG17, RG18, RG19, RG20, RG7 and SN7.

Run by a dedicated team of cat lovers, we’re passionate about improving the lives of cats and kittens in Newbury, 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 Newbury area. You can find out more about the work of Cats Protection here.

We are open for adoptions. Please check our 'Adopt a Cat' page below for any available cats.

Could you provide a loving new home for a cat in Newbury? 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.

When you adopt from Cats Protection, your new cat will come home to you neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, protected against fleas and worms, and with a 4 week Petplan insurance policy. Our adoption fee is £100 per adult cat and £120 per kitten (aged 2 - 6 months).

To express your interest in a particular cat, please enquire via their profile below. We will assess your application and if it's a good match, we will contact you to arrange an appointment so you can meet your moggy match in the fur! Please note that due to the volume of applications we receive, you will need to attend your appointment within 48 hours of us contacting you. After meeting them, if a reservation is placed, you must adopt your cat or kittens within 7 days. We cannot hold cats to accommodate holidays or house moves. If you have any general enquiries about your suitability or the adoption process, please call us on: 01635 200111 or email us

Volunteer at Cats Protection Berkshire Cat Centre

Without volunteers, Cats Protection Newbury Adoption Centre simply wouldn't exist. Our amazing, friendly volunteers are a diverse group with a shared love of cats who fit volunteering around their home lives and personal commitments.

We're often looking to welcome new volunteers to join our brilliant team. As well as meeting great people and making an incredible difference to the cats of Newbury, you'll enjoy practical benefits such as discounted pet insurance.  

Full training and support will be given for all roles and there will be an informal interview process, including references. 

If you would like further information on any of the roles below or to request an application form, it would be great to hear from you!

Please get in touch with Andrea at volunteering@newbury.cats.org.uk or call 01635 200111

Cat Care Volunteers

Our cat care volunteers are part of a fantastic team that look after and meet the needs of the cats whilst they are in our care.  This is a great role for cat lovers, as volunteers get to spend time directly with cats whilst cleaning their pens.

When and where:  9-11am, Fridays weekly or Saturdays fortnightly at our centre in Curridge near Thatcham.

We ask that you are as passionate about feline welfare as we are and happy to do some online learning to support the role.

Fundraising Volunteering Roles

Our Fundraising Volunteers are vital to raising the funds that we need so that we can continue to help cats and kittens in need:  Thanks to the donations we receive at fundraising events from generous members of the public.

Fundraising Events Organisers

Our Fundraising Events Organisers use their passion for cats and people to plan events such as Open Days at our centre and our Christmas Bazaars.  If you have good organisational and interpersonal skills and enjoy being part of a team, this could be the role for you!

If you would prefer to help at the events themselves, we are also recruiting:

Fundraising Events Helpers                           

Our Fundraising Events Helpers have the varied role of helping at local fundraising events such as Adoption Centre Open Days, Jumble Sales and Christmas Bazaars.  This role can be flexible and you can be involved behind the scenes with set up and take down or in a more public facing way by helping to run a stall at events.

Please note Although we do welcome everyone, unfortunately our Adoption Centre is not set up to accommodate young volunteers (under the age of 18), including those on the Duke of Edinburgh programme.

However, do please follow the links below to find out if there are any other suitable Cats Protection volunteering opportunities near you:

Many thanks for your interest and support!
