Cats Protection is the UK’s leading feline welfare charity. Their vision is a world where every cat is treated with kindness and an understanding of its needs.

It’s an ambitious vision. However, they truly believe it can be achieved because of their passion, their professional approach and simply because cats are among the UK’s most popular companion pets.

Cats Protection helps around 200,000 cats and kittens every year thanks in no small part to their network of over 250 volunteer-run branches and 32 adoption centres.

These include the charity’s flagship adoption centre in Chelwood Gate, Sussex where its administrative offices can also be found.

Cats Protection has simple and clear objectives to help cats:

Homing - Finding good homes for cats in need
Neutering - Supporting and encouraging the neutering of cats
Information - Improving people’s understanding of cats and their care

Cats Protection is governed by a Board of Trustees which, in turn, is advised on its decisions by an Advisory Council of appointed representatives of the charity’s membership.
