The Epsom, Ewell and District branch covers the postcode areas KT5, KT6, KT9, KT17-23, SM7 and RH3-5. It's a "virtual branch" meaning volunteers work from home to organise the placement of cats so have neither a central office nor a homing centre - all cats they take in are distributed amongst their foster homes.
The charity ensures that whenever a cat is taken in for re-homing they are vet checked, spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. They are then placed into safe & secure cat cabins in the home of one of the charities fosterers until a new, perfect owner can be found. Some cats are homed on a 'direct re-home' basis from their existing homes. This means it’s a less traumatic experience for the cat and also means more homes can be found for cats. All new prospective owners receive a home visit from one of the charities volunteer team.
Cats Protection are totally self-funding and rely solely on donations and fundraising events to keep afloat. Cats Protection Headquarters provide the local branch with neutering vouchers which are available to the general public to assist with the cost of spaying/neutering.
