1. To rescue stray and unwanted cats and kittens, rehabilitate and re-home them where possible.

2. To encourage the neutering of all cats and kittens not required for breeding.

3. To inform the public on the care of cats and kittens.

The headquarters of Cats Protection is based in Sussex. There are Branches all over Britain. We are the Swansea & District Branch which covers the Swansea area (Postcodes SA1 to SA11), our main aim is to re-home unwanted cats and kittens, we do not have a sanctuary where cats can stay long-term. Our rescued cats for re-homing are in mostly kept in foster homes in and around the area.

Where do our cats come from?

Many come into our care when the owners have to move into living accommodation where animals are not allowed, when the owner dies or goes into a nursing home others when a member of the family develops an allergy. Some are unfortunately unwanted litters of kittens where people have not had their cats neutered, but recently the majority appear to have come from situations where owners have moved and simply left their often un-neutered animals behind.

Swansea Cats Protection is under increasing pressure to keep up with the demand of cats needing our help. We have many calls to our helpline every day to deal with cats that need rehoming. We are never able to take in cats straight away and cats will need to go on a waiting list.
