I have been inundated with requests to take cats into care over the last few months. But as spaces are very limited, we are morally obliged to take cats living outside into care first, and then hold a waiting list for cats that need to be rehomed.

Many requests are for cats 10 years of age or older.  We have found that older cats that have been used to a home environment, do not do well in outdoor pens, which is all we at CP Newcastle have for adult cats.  They get stressed being confined, and surrounded by strange cats, and add that to fretting for their owners and familiar surroundings, the cat can get ill.

Having said that, we realise that many people have little choice but to try and find a home for their older cat, for whatever reason, so we at CP Newcastle have decided to offer assistance by advertising the cat on our website.

In order to qualify for this, the cat has to be neutered, flea and worm treated (recent) and recently given a health check by a Vet.  We will then attempt to find the cat a new home, and put both parties together. But I must emphasise, this will not mean the cat is a CP cat, it will not be. Nor will the cat come under any of our requirements.

It will be a private arrangement between the two parties.

No money must be charged for the cat.

If anyone wishes to take advantage of this service, and live in our catchment area of Newcastle City/North Tyneside, then use the contact form to convey interest and to receive more information.
