Cats Protection is the UK’s leading feline welfare charity and our vision is a world where every cat is treated with kindness and an understanding of its needs. Cats are at the centre of everything we do and our objectives are: homing, neutering and educating people about cats and their care. We help thousands of cats across the UK each year thanks to our network of dedicated volunteers, staff and supporters.

Our vision for volunteering

Volunteering is and always will be at the heart of Cats Protection. It is joyful and inclusive. As a charity, working in partnership, together we transform the lives of cats, people and communities.

The difference you will make to cats and people

Our shops promote sustainable shopping habits while raising vital funds for our cat companions. Central to their success are our shop volunteers who help with all aspects of the day-to-day running of our fantastic shops, serving customers, helping with stock rotation, creating displays, and everything in between!
