Cat Homing
Due to Covid-19 we currently have a hands-free homing process in place.
Check out our handy guide to find out more.
Please note, due to exceptionally high demand, we are only homing cats within our own district. We have a high volume of enquiries for our cats and we will not be able to fulfill them all.

Our branches and centres may be closed but the cost of caring for our cats does not stop.
Can you donate £18 today and help with the cost of feeding, treating, looking after and loving one of the cats in our care for another day?
As a nation, we’ve rarely appreciated our cats more. They’re here for us when we’re feeling worried or lonely, here to distract us and help the days pass and here as a great comfort and source of joy.
Our cats are here for us so please help us be #HereForTheCats. Please supporting our Special Coronavirus Appeal and donate now.

From time to time we are asked to help reduce the size of cat colonies in the Oxfordshire area. This means we go out trapping cats which then need a good home.
We are looking, in particular, for farmers, smallholders or stables who may need good hunters to help with any vermin issues. All the new owners would need to do is give the cats somewhere to shelter and put out some food for them.
All trapped cats will be neutered and have a thorough vet check before they are moved on.
If you are interested please contact the Oxfordshire branch of CP on 01235221147 or email enquiries@oxford.cats.org.uk

Established in 1988, we work through a network of fosterers, who provide temporary accommodation for needy cats until safe, loving, permanent homes can be found for them. The fosterers are supported by other volunteers who concentrate on fund-raising.
Cats Protection asks adopters for an adoption fee of £70 when offering a home to a cat or kitten as they are all vet-checked, micro-chipped and receive their first vaccinations before going to their new homes and, if old enough, are neutered. If you feel able to make a donation on top of that fee, it would, of course, be gratefully received. We know times are hard so thank you if you decide to give a loving home to one of our cats
