Why do cats come to Cats Protection?
• When an elderly owner dies and there is no one else to look after the cat
• When a cat has kittens and the owner can’t look after them
• When cats are saved from unsafe places and cruel treatment
• When people move house and can no longer keep their cat
• When a cat is found wandering the streets and has no owner
Cats Protection staff and volunteers work to make sure no cats are treated badly or left to stray on the street. They never put a healthy cat to sleep.
