In 2023 Hereford Adoption Centre helped 636 cats and kittens and our average cat care costs per day was £177.14. Thanks to 2024 being a leap year, we will have an extra day to fund our cat care work on 29th February! An extra day means extra food, extra litter and extra care!

Please can you help us fund this extra day of care this year? Your donation, no matter how big or small can make a real difference and help us to continue our work caring for cats like 10 year old Solitaire.

Solitaire came into our care because she was unable to stay at the house that she lived at. She is a friendly cat who enjoys having fuss and company once she has got to know you. While in our care, Solitaire was found to have a heart murmur and we also diagnosed her with high blood pressure, a common condition in older cats. Solitaire has responded really well to treatment, takes her medication without any difficulties and we believe this should not affect her life expectancy or quality of life.

Our target of £177 will help us fund the cost of caring for Solitaire and all the other cats and kittens in our centre on 29th February. Cats Protection receives no government funding and so are totally reliant on donations from our supporters. We appreciate times are tight, the minimum donation set by JustGiving is £2, and so anything you can donate will be hugely appreciated. Any funds raised above and beyond our target will go towards our work across the rest of the year. Thank you.
