URGENT PLEASE READ !
for more information on the cats available for adoption you can telephone
VAL - Homing Officer on 0845 371 2732
PLEASE NOTE :-
kittens are not currently available, cats normally only mate when they know their kittens will survive through weather conditions, hence the only kittens around over the winter period are those born to immature queens. This does not apply to Pedigree Cats as they are reared and bred indoors.
Kittens should be available within the next month or so....

Donations when adopting a Cat or Kittens
Although we state on the site that the average donation is £50 for an adult cat or kitten, that doesn't mean we would expect double that figure for a pair, but of course anything over and above the initial amount is very much appreciated.
Often its not realised the costs that we have when taking in a cat or kitten, many people think we dont have any Vets fees to pay, well, we do, we have to pay consultation fees presciption and surgical fees just like anyone else. In fact, we average a cost of over £300 with that fee going up day by day, and when you consider that many cats are with us for months and months, the cost can be staggering.
Although a Donation isnt compulsary, we would like to think you would offer a donation in order to help us afford the next cat we need to bring into our care.
All we ask is that you check how much it would cost to buy a kitten from a Pet Shop, and remember that kitten isnt as lucky as ours, and doesnt have the benefits of a Cats Protection kitten or Cat. It isnt vaccinated, It isnt wormed or de-flead, it isnt microchipped, nor will it be unless you pay for all these extras. We do it all for you, where will you find benefits better than these?
Cats Protection now Vaccinate our Cats and Kittens
This is a brave venture for us as a Branch, as we are self funded, and no, we dont get free Veterinary treatment. We want the best possible for the cats in our care, so, we have decided that the best means protecting our cats and kittens from as many cruel diseases as possible. The list includes the following:-
- Feline Panleucopenia Virus
- Feline Leukaemia
- Feline Rhinotracheitis Virus
- Feline Calicivirus
- Feline Clamydia psittaci.
To impliment a full Vaccination course such as this, we would appreciate those adopting cats or kittens from us, adding that little bit extra by way of donation to help us undertake this enormous and very expensive venture.
We are now microchipping all our cats and have created a new scheme to chip our kittens also.
It is unkind to chip a kitten, as the chip is fairly large compared to the small neck of a kitten, so we are giving out a voucher for a microchip to be put in place, when the kitten is anaesthetised for neutering. But we can only do this at certain nominated Veterinary Practices, so please dont just go along to your own Vet to get your kitten neutered and expect a free CP microchip, we cannot do that.
We recommend that your kitten be neutered between 4½ months and 6 months, please do not leave it later than this as this can lead to various cancers in later life due to the onset of hormonal developments, which happen after 6 months. So despite all those 'old wives tales' it really isn't best to leave your female kitten to have a litter or her first season prior to neutering, nor is it best for a male kitten to keep his genitalia, as not only will he roam and spray, he could be a victim of prostate cancer later in life.
By microchipping your cat and kitten, we are doing our best to re locate the strays of tomorrow with their owners.

MEET PLUTO A STUNNING PALE GINGER BOY
This fabulous pale ginger 5 year old male, came to us when a family could no longer cope after the departure of a family member. Pluto is used to dogs, and children, but doesnt care too much for cats. He is loving boy, who likes to sit on knees. He is used to going out at nights, so a home that backs onto fields or in a very quiet area would suit Pluto well.
Pluto is neutered, microchipped and has started his course of vaccinations.
He Cannot Be Homed To The Ashington Area
If you would like to meet Pluto, please fill in an application form by clicking the CP Logo beneath this ad.

PRINCESS A CAT WITH CHARACTER
This is Princess. She is still quite young being around 3 years old. Princess came into our care along with her kittens, of whom she was very protective, and a superb mother. She is now neutered, microchipped and vaccinated and looking for a forever home of her own.
She is a character, and will try and manipulate her new owner a bit, so is best suited to a couple or person on their own who knows cats. She takes her time to get to know you, but once she does, she is playful and friendly. But she isnt averse to swiping you across the legs if you dont pay her attention.
So if a cat of character is for you, then Princess is your girl.

| MEET THE STUNNING BELLE ( NOT AVAILABLE TILL MID JULY) |
This beautiful young queen was found living with a feral cat colony in the Keel Row area of Blyth. She was very much in season and being chased by tom cats. She is semi long haired cat, so that will require a bit of grooming, at least once a week. She is very friendly and will no doubt get on well with children. As Belle was only brought to us last week, we will need to advertise her to ensure her owner, if looking for her, finds her, plus we like to quarantine our new cats for 14 days to ensure they are not harboring a virus. Belle has been neutered and chipped by us, and will be vaccinated prior to going to a new home.
BELLE CANNOT BE REHOMED TO THE BLYTH AREA.
ARRANGEMENTS CAN BE MADE TO VIEW BELLE AROUND 10TH JULY, TO DO SO PLEASE CLICK THE CP LOGO BELOW AND FILL IN AN APPLICATION FORM.
PLEASE LET ME INTRODUCE CLEO
Cleo is only 8 months old, and has led quite a sheltered life being an indoor cat in a flat in central Newcastle.

Cleo is now neutered, chipped and vaccinated and ready to go to a new quiet home without children or other animals. You will need to be patient with her at first as she the sort of cat who has to get to know you before showing you her true colours.
So if this kitten is of interest to you, please fill in one of our application forms by clicking any of the CP logo links on this page, and we will arrange for you to meet her.

INTRODUCING AUSTIN, A HANDSOME BOY - Austin has now found a new home
Cannot be Homed to the Howdon area
Cannot be Homed to the Howdon area
 Austin
came from the High Howdon area. He was living under car bonnets and
trying to get into houses. He was being regularly beaten up by other
cats in the area.. He has a band down his back where his coat has been
scraped off, probably by a fan belt, but that is just a guess. But his
fur is now growing back so our Vet is very pleased with him. He is
approx 18 months old.Very
clean, always hungry and loves strokes. Doesn't bother with other
cats, even though he was being beaten up. He loves companionship, so
regularly sought out anyone willing to give him a stroke, till he
returned to his home in the local allotments to sleep. Austin is now neutered, chipped and vaccinated, and looking for a family willing to give him that home he has never had. NO MORE APPLICATIONS FOR AUSTIN AS HEHAS NOW FOUND A NEW HOME |

POPPY HAS NOW FOUND A NEW HOME
Cannot be Homed to Seaton Delaval area
This
is Poppy, as you can see she is a pretty Ginger and White girl. She
came from a multi cat household in the Seaton Delaval area, so for
obvious reasons we cannot rehome her in the same area. She is young,
about 2 years, but in that short life has produced several litters of
kittens. Poppy now needs a home where she is wanted for more than
breeding kittens, she needs love and affection. She is now neutered,
chipped and vaccinated, so ready to enjoy being part of quiet household.

WHISKERS - HAS NOW FOUND A LOVING NEW HOME
Must be homed into the North Tyneside area.
Whiskers came from the household with 17 cats. She was the one with the most problems, in that she came into care with a nasal problem, which causes her to be unable to smell food, hence her owner had fed her only on strong smelling foods, such as Tuna. On discovering her problem, she was treated by our Vet, and now will eat the good quality dried food we at CP Newcastle use.
Whiskers is a very placid, easy going cat, and would make a wonderful companion for anyone seeking companionship from their pet. NO MORE APPLICATIONS FOR WHISKERS PLEASE

GORDY HAS NOW FOUND A NEW LOVING HOME
Cannot be homed within the Gosforth area
Gordy
first came to our attention when we received a phone call from a
concerned person who had seen this poor cat, wandering around the
Gosforth area in all weathers. We then added his details to our lost and found, and then on seeing a photo of him, got him into our care as quickly as possible.
It was obvious that Gordy wasnt very well, and indeed, on examination by our Vet it was discovered that Gordy had Cancer on the tips of his ears, a condition often seen in cats with white ears, who are inclined by the lack of pigmentation to be victims of Cancer, caused by the sun.
Many cats suffer this condition, which could so easily be avoided by the application of Sun Cream on the ears.
Gordy was lucky that his condition was spotted early enough to make an operation viable, and as you can see by the photo, he is feeling very sorry for himself, but will soon be ready for a new home.
Gordy is a very loving little lad, not very old, who now desperately needs a home where he doesn't need to wander in search of food and shelter, and he will have people around him who truly love him.
UPDATE6th June - No more applications for Gordy as he has now found a loving new home

WOODY A 3 YEAR OLD MALE - ON HOLD - NOW IN HIS NEW HOME
Cannot be rehomed within the Morpeth area
Woody came into our care when a lady who had 17 cats and faced eviction asked us for help. Because of their past, we decided to retain them in our care until we were sure they were well socialised to human interaction.
At first all the cats were very shy, some still are, but Woody, a gorgeous Black semi long haired male, neutered, vaccinated and now microchipped, soon overcame any nerves he may have had, and showed us his true personality. Woody is vocal, and loves his food. He is also very friendly indeed, and would be fine as a family pet. Although we would recommend homes with slightly older children, as none of these cats are used to small children.

MARLEY - A YOUNG TABBY FEMALE. THIS CAT IS NOW REHOMED
Cannot be rehomed to the Blyth area.
Marley was found living rough in a car park in Blyth, where she had been living amongst a feral colony for some time. Luckily for Marley, our Feral Monitor, Kelly, noted that Marley had been injured, and sought Veterinary attention for her, where it was discovered that Marley was a domestic cat and not a feral, as thought.
Ads were placed locally and on our website, but no one has come forward to claim this delightful, friendly little queen, so we are now seeking a new home for her.
Marley had several injuries to her neck, which are now healing really well. She is neutered, and will be vaccinated and chipped before going to her new home.
Marley is very friendly indeed, and should be a suitable family pet for a family with responsible children.

Disturbing News
It seems more and more people are deliberately allowing their cats to breed litter after litter of kittens, in order to sell them to Pet Shops.
I am sure you have all noticed how few kittens we have had this year, and this growing trend of selling kittens is the reason.
I recently had a lady phoned me asking me for a neutering voucher as her cat had given birth to 6 kittens the week before, on asking her what she intended to do with the kittens, she told me that they were already booked into a Pet Shop, so I told her how CP would ensure the kittens would get a lovely new home, be vaccinated, chipped, health checked etc., but her response was, 'well if you pay me more than the pet shop you can have them'.
I was so angry I told her to get the Pet Shop to neuter her cat while she was there.........
Wrong I know, but, this trend has to stop !
Cats Protection, RSPCA and all the various charities in the area, have worked hard to eliminate the 'killer' diseases such as FIV, Leukemia, and I believe we are close to doing that, but, this indiscriminate breeding and selling will only propagate these and other serious animal diseases, and there is nothing we can do about it.
Please Note:- All cats who arrive into our care who have been used to living totally indoors, appear timid and shy whilst in our outdoor pens, this is because they are frightened by all the noises and the sense of danger they feel being taken out of the environment they know and trust, given time, in a new home they will blossom into the loving cat they once were.
All adult cats in our care have
been thoroughly Vet checked, treated to prevent Fleas and Worms, Vaccinated and tested
negative against Feline Aids and Leukemia if required, neutered, microchipped and come with 6
weeks free Insurance from PetPlan. Our Kittens are also all of the above, except we dont neuter kittens as young as 10 weeks.
You will need a solidly made cat carrier in order to transport your cat home, if you havent got one, we can supply a second hand one at prices between £5 and £10.
