Welcome to Cats Protection Weymouth & District Branch

We cover areas throughout West Dorset including Dorchester, Weymouth, Portland, Bridport, Beaminster & Lyme Regis:

DT1 - DT2 - DT3 - DT4 - DT5 - DT6 - DT7 - DT8

Run by a small team of dedicated, cat-loving volunteers, we're passionate about improving the lives of cats and kittens, working to find loving new homes for local cats in our care, and lost and found cats, as well as general education and awareness. You can find out more about the work of Cats Protection here.

In some circumstances we can make a contribution towards the cost of neutering (spaying) a female cat.

We are unable to assist with other veterinary charges for owned cats.

Lost and found cats in Weymouth & District

As of Monday 3 June 2024, the RSPCA refocussed its services to prioritise work on cruelty and neglect. As a result, they are asking the public and partners for support with incidents that do not fall into this category.

For any injured stray cats, members of the public are being asked to take them straight to a veterinary surgeon for emergency treatment, instead of speaking with the RSPCA. Their inspectors are able to support if the cat is feral and a member of the public is unable to handle them.
