Second Chance - Hartlepool Cat Rescue

Second Chance - Hartlepool Cat Rescue A Hartlepool based cat rescue / cat adoption service. All adoptions are subject to an adoption fee.

Donations can be made by bank transfer to Second Chance, sort code 30-98-97, account 74094768 OR PayPal to [email protected] Second Chance (Previously We Help Hartlepool Animals) is a non-profit organisation dedicated to helping as many cats and kittens in the Hartlepool area as possible. We are a completely volunteer-run organisation and solely depend on peoples generosity. If you can d

onate anything to help us with upkeep for our cats and vet bills, please get in contact with us via our page. We did work very closely with the Teesside branch of Cats Protection, who were generous enough to help with our neutering costs. Last year (2021) alone the bill for them to neuter/spay Hartlepool cats (including owned ones) was over £50,000, and the problem is still far from solved. Hartlepool is one of the worst areas in the United Kingdom for overbreeding cats. We do our best to help as many cats as we can, including taking in stray cats, loved pets when their owners are no longer able to care for them, feral cats, and even managing to bring some feral cats to the point where they can also be placed in a loving home. Within the last year we have helped over 350 cats/kittens, and we still have a lot more to go. If you would like to donate funds to us for vet bills and food/litter to care for our cats, our bank details are:

Microchips - another reason today why chips are so important to be implanted and kept up to date. A lovely lady in Oxford road area reported a friendly cat turned up at her home and didn’t move away for 3 days. She couldn’t take him in but did pop some food and water out when it appeared he wasn’t going anywhere. She contacted us, one of our volunteers popped round and scanned him and took him home for safety. We checked his chip and contacted his owners in Northallerton who are now en route to collect the little traveller and delighted to know that he’s safe and well 😻

£1 for the 1st!

Can you all believe that December is here already?

We’re very aware that people are currently trying to get their Christmas shopping (and other holiday shopping) done, and that people are generally a bit shorter on money at this time of the year, but if any of you can spare any amount it’s always greatly appreciated!

Our rescue is full to bursting, as always, but we always try to take as many cats from the streets that we can in spurts of awful weather like we’ve been having lately, this of course in turn means we need all the funds we possibly can have.

You can donate £1 for the 1st, donate under someone’s name as a Christmas gift, and even purchase one of our (self admittedly) amazing calendars! Promoted of course by our wonderful mascot Chance - who has taken to attending fundraising events with our great team.

Thank you for any support you can give to us🤍

This handsome boy is Gem, he’s 5 years old, neutered & chipped. Sadly his owner is suffering breathing problems and having to look at rehoming. He’s got a ginger “attitude” so think he’d be best as an only cat. Come on folks, let’s try get him a new home in time for Christmas 🙏

Recently some lovely people came forward offering foster space. I have a list of names but fb is being difficult and not letting me contact them. PLEASE if you can offer a space to a 14 year old female cat who just wants a quiet life, not too keen on people, doesn't like other cats, dogs or kids - please give me a shout. I also need temp space for a lovely 3 year old boy who's just come into rescue, a 4 year old girl awaiting spay, and a 3 yr old on meds who's waiting to move on to his forever home as soon as he's better.
