Caring for Cats - Helping People

Haworth Cat Rescue works tirelessly to provide a safe haven for as many unwanted and abandoned stray, feral and surrendered cats and kittens as we can.  We care for them at our centre until a suitable new loving home is found, matching the age, temperament and needs of each cat to the new individual or family adopting him or her.

We never turn a cat away because he or she is too old or has a managed medical condition such as diabetes but sadly we have long waiting lists and the recession continues to lead to more cats needing new homes.

Behind every neglected and abandoned cat is a person. We are making inroads into education with the successful completion of our pilot schools programme to help us influence a new generation in a positive way.

Yorkshire ranks No 2 in England and Wales for animal cruelty convictions - and we want to help change that.

Our no-kill promise provides reassurance and comfort to those forced to part with much-loved pets due to changed circumstances such as admission to a hospice, a move to a care home, home repossession, the onset of dementia, development of allergies or death of an owner.

Due to increasing pressure and space constraints we are able to help in just one third of cases - and this is heartbreaking. Many cats and kittens are missing out on a second chance.

We are leading the way in Yorkshire and have launched an appeal to raise £2million so that we can purchase land and build a visible and permanent cat rehoming centre - to meet todays need and help thousands of unwanted cats and kittens long into the future.

The new and enlarged rehoming centre will be a place for cats to de-traumatise, be cared for and rehomed that can also host school visits and educational activities - all of which will help improve animal welfare.
