Your Winter Sponsorship update

Thanks to your Sponsorship, cats like Tommy, who have been waiting a long time for their forever homes, will be surrounded by love this festive season.

Why some cats wait longer

Some cats need more time than others to find homes. This might be because they need specialist care, have specific requirements, or are part of ongoing prosecution cases where rehoming isn’t possible until legal proceedings are concluded. Others, like Tommy, are completely ready and have so much love to give – they just haven’t met their special person yet.

Thanks to your RSPCA Sponsorship, we provide nutritious food, enrichment activities and gentle interaction to keep them happy during their stay. Your support means every cat is loved, no matter how long their journey home takes.
