Help Cats R Us through Pandemic

Please Help Save Cats R Us click this link to go to our go fund me page.


Coronavirus has had a huge impact on small charities who unlike the large charities cant launch huge fundraising campaigns with paid advertising , don't benefit from rate relief or staff furlough because we don't have paid staff only unpaid volunteers.

No fundraising events means no funds and Cats r us has also had to close its small fundraising store as couldn't afford overheads.

Cats R Us has a strict no destroy policy and are left with a lot of very difficult to home cats either because of their health or behaviour problems and all still have to be fed and vet treated regularly, volunteers feeding them and the feral colonies we support are doing so out of their own pockets as funds are so low.

Sadly if no funds come in then Cats R Us may have to close completely which would be devastating for the local area cats.

Please consider making even a small donation to help this charity keep going.

Since 1998 Cats R us has been helping cats even fighting Toys R Us for their name https://straycatsrus.blogspot.com/p/blast-from-past-cats-r-us.html 

See some of the rescue successes here https://straycatsrus.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html  there are many more too.

Closure of fundraising store

Due to Coronavirus and current situation we have now closed our fundraising store at Dabble Duck, all stock will be kept in storage until times change and Fundraising Events return.

Thank you to all our past customers for their support and donations of good quality saleable items will still be accepted though we can no longer accept clothes.

Stay Safe Everyone.

Coronavirus

Coronavirus: well we are likely going to struggle for cat food in the coming weeks. Amazon may not see cat food as delivery priority.  All our trustees and some volunteers fall into the self isolation groups.  Our vet bills are fully paid up to date , all fundraising events this year have been cancelled and fundraising store will likely be closed a few weeks soon.  Donations of cat food can still be dropped off at store entrance as we will hopefully be able to check regularly.  If you would like to support us at this difficult time donations can be made via PayPal  https://www.paypal.me/CatsRUs or direct banking our account details

 our feral feeders will carry on supporting the feral colonies as long as possible.

Cat litter also desperately needed.

Thank You !!

Thank you so much for our grant from Channel 4 Animal Rescue Live Grant Fund, administered by the Petplan Charitable Trust.

We still need to raise a percentage of funds to enable us to realise our goal but are sure with support from donators we can do this.

Help

I know it must seem like we are constantly raising funds but that’s because we are constantly running out of funds. Daily costs of food and litter plus the feral colonies we feed daily, vet bills, volunteers using their own money a lot of the time too. Currently we need to raise funds to neuter five from a feral colony in Gainford . Unlike members of the public we aren’t eligible for vouchers from other neuter campaigns and of course there is no local branch of national cat charity anymore. Every little helps.
