GODALMING CAT SANCTUARY Helping homeless, unwanted, abandoned, sick and injured cats. The sanctuary arranges for any necessary veterinary treatment, and cares for them until new loving homes can be found. Some cats are cared for permanently, when there is no hope of rehoming. Feral cats are frequently taken in and where possible youngsters are tamed for rehoming. Adult ferals are usually trapped, neutered and returned, as they are more likely to survive better in the wild than caged, and are often not suitable for homing. This well kept sanctuary has been running for many years and the number of animals in their care is growing constantly, making any charitable donations received more vital than ever. Handy-persons Needed: The Sanctuary would love to hear from any handymen or women willing to volunteer their help for some urgent maintenance work. Repairs are needed on the cat runs and chalets, to make sure the cats are warm and secure. Please call them if you can offer any help at all, or can donate materials etc. Thanks! Based in Godalming, Surrey, they cover Guildford, Godalming and all surrouding villages. Tel: 01483 422280

THE CINNAMON TRUST Registered Charity no: 293399 The national charity for elderly people, and their much loved, much needed companion animals. A network of 8,000 volunteers “hold hands” with owners to provide vital loving care for their pets. The trust aims to keep them together - for example, by walking a dog every day for a housebound owner, fostering pets when owners need hospital care, fetching the cat food, or even cleaning the budgie's cage. And when a pet is bereaved the Trust takes on their full time, life time care. Short-Term Foster Homes Needed: Temporary, short-term foster homes are needed to care for bereaved cats whilst a Lifelong Home is being found, and also for when people need a hospital stay and require temporary foster care for their cat. Please contact us if you could help. Lifelong Foster Homes Needed: Lifelong Foster Homes are required for cats left in the care of The Trust. Future Veterinary fees will be paid by The Cinnamon Trust. Please contact as below if you could offer a home for life to a bereaved cat. Please Note: The Trust is not a rescue centre taking cats in for homing, but when an elderly owner dies, and their animal companion is left in their care, the Trust will do their best to find a loving, life-long foster home for them.

Harder to Home

Cats with minor health problems find it harder to be rehomed, yet rescue centres will often pay for their vet bills even after rehoming.

Shrinking Violets!

Very shy cats so often get overlooked, yet these can be the most loyal of pets once you have gained their trust.

Would you like to care for a cat, but don't want the lifelong responsibility that goes with it? Many rescues rely on cat foster homes to care for cats 'between homes'. Could you be a cat fosterer? Find out more here Cat Fostering

Indoor Cats

Want a cat, but live in a flat? Although a cat's natural instinct is to go outside, some cats can be better suited to the indoor life: Cats with FIV, deaf cats, blind cats, or very nervous or elderly cats. Ask at your local Rescue Centre
