Although we are small in size we are big on ideals, as Caring for Cats is the only local re-homing organisation that ensures EVERY cat and kitten passes through a unique “7 Step Health Check” ....
1. Blood Testing
We screen for two diseases that are fatal to cats – FIV and Feline Leukaemia, which can pass from mother to kitten or between adults that fight or mate. This blood testing is ess
ential as it is the basis for the cat's future health and well-being.
2. Vet Check
Our vets give each animal a thorough physical examination and carry out any advised treatments – irrespective of the cost.
3. Vaccinations
We vaccinate against four diseases: cat flu, feline panleucopenia, feline enteritis & feline leukaemia. All cats will have had both their primary and booster vaccinations prior to rehoming.
4. Treatments for Parasites
All animals are regularly treated against fleas and worms using effective products
5. Micro-chipping
All animals are micro-chipped which will be transferred into your name on adoption.
6. Neutering
All adult cats are neutered on entering the charity; if not yet 4-5 months, kittens will be neutered at that age by returning them to any Swanbridge or Battle Flatts practice.
7. FREE Insurance
Receive 4 weeks’ FREE PetPlan insurance on the day of adoption, which we strongly recommend you continue, but you are under no obligation to. The cost of all these treatments would be at least £180 on the high street, yet the minimum donation we ask is only £85 - applicable to all cats and kittens equally.

Calling all Cat Cuddlers & Matchmakers!
Do you dream in purrs and live for those head boops?
Caring for Cats needs YOU! We're on the hunt for amazing volunteers to join our whiskered crew.
Cat Carers:
- Be a shoulder to cuddle on (and maybe a chin scratcher extraordinaire).
- Feed our ravenous residents to power their purr engines.
- Shower our furry friends with love and attention while they await their purrfect match.
- Tackle the necessary (but never particularly pleasant) task of cleaning out litter trays.
- Witness the magic of a kitty blossoming from shy to social butterfly!
Cat Homers:
- Show off these adorable personalities.
- Unleash your inner Cupid and help find loving forever homes for our feline residents.
- Sell items from scratching posts to cat carriers to kitty litter in our homing centre shop.
- Witness the joy of a happy ending - a cat and their perfect human, together at last!
No matter your cat-loving skillset, we have a place for you!
Bonus points if you can:
- Resist the urge to take them all home (we get it, they're THAT cute!)
- Speak fluent Meow (optional, but a major plus!).
Join our team and make a difference in the lives of these amazing cats!
Call the homing centre on 01430 862612 to learn more and apply!

A big thank you to everyone who attended our open day last week. Despite being rained off halfway through (sincerest apologies to anyone who came through after we packed up), we still managed to raise just under £580 in two hours!
As always, the cats are very grateful for our volunteers and supporters who made this happen 😻
