The RSPCA Cat Hub is one of the most successful cat rehoming centres in the country, finding happy, new forever homes for more than 300 cats and kittens a year.

Based near Darlington in the North East of England, the Cat Hub rehomes cats saved by the RSPCA across the Teesside, North Yorkshire, County Durham, Darlington, Hartlepool and Sunderland areas. Its 20 pods are always full, with up to 30 cats and kittens, while our volunteer foster carers look after more in their own homes.

Set up by five local branches of the RSPCA to help reduce the number of abandoned, abused and neglected cats on the streets, it costs £75,000 a year to run the Cat Hub.

The need for the Cat Hub at present is greater than ever! There has been a boom in kitten numbers due to difficulties in getting cats neutered during lockdown and financial hardship due to Coronavirus means that more cats are being abandoned. This year already the RSPCA has responded to nearly 2,000 cat related incidents in the North East.

Please do give what you can. You can be rest assured that cats will benefit from your kind generosity. Thank you !
