Story

In 2020, Cats Protection will be opening a new Homing Centre in London as demand for cats in need of care in the area is very high. We’ve taken on an old warehouse unit in Harrow and are busy fitting out the interior to provide 20 state of the art pens for the cats we will be receiving into our care in the New Year.

But, we need your help to do this! 

Please consider giving a donation to help us to provide equipment for the pens which will help to make them homely and welcoming. Each pen will need food bowls and litter trays, bedding, hiding places, scratch posts and lots of stimulating toys. 

This is so we can help more cats like… 10-year-old Sky who was taken in by our North London Centre last year. Sky had a terrible inflammation of his face and was also very overweight. He needed medicine and an improved diet! He’s a big snuggle bug of a cat and we were delighted help his recovery. Once we got him feeling better he went to on a house boat where he loves his new life. He doesn’t care much about leaving the boat, but likes to walk along the river bank with his humans.
Sky had to stay with us for many months and it was very important that in his pen were all the best creature comforts we could provide as well as meeting his basic welfare needs.

A standard Cats Protection pen includes:

  • A Feline Fort – this is important for cats who need to hide and feel safe in the busy and unfamiliar environment of an adoption centre. 
  • Blankets and bedding
  • Litter trays, litter, food and water bowls
  • Cat scratchers and toys
  • Feliway plug ins to help calm anxious cats

It costs Cats Protection an average of £300 to provide all the equipment needed for just one pen.

Cats Protection receives no government funding, therefore we rely solely on the donations of kind supporters to ensure cats like Sky get the best chance in life. We never put a healthy cat to sleep and these pens could help rehome more than 500 cats every year. We would very much appreciate your support and donations for the pens at the Harrow Homing Centre. Every penny helps. 

Any funds raised above and beyond our target will be used to help other cats and kittens in our care at the Harrow Homing Centre.
