Cats Protection is the UK's largest cat welfare charity.
We share our lives with cats. They bring happiness to millions of us every day. Yet too many cats don’t get the care and kindness they deserve.
We stand up for every cat.
At the forefront of research on cat welfare we use our decades of experience to help all cats and support owners to keep their pets happy and healthy.
Our campaigns change laws to give cats more protection and we continue to call for a better deal for cats.
In every corner of the country our passionate volunteers, employees and supporters are using their kindness and expertise to make life better for millions of cats and the people who care for them.
How will you choose to support us?
What does the opportunity involve doing?
The difference you will make to cats and people
Every penny counts when it comes to improving the lives of the thousands of cats and kittens across the UK that need our help each year. Our collection box fundraising volunteers help our volunteer groups raise vital funds by collecting and distributing collection boxes in their local area. Making a difference can mean as little as raising 20p, which is enough to feed one cat in our care for a day, to £150 which is the average cost of a cat in our care.
