news

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Cat Protection will be closed to the public until further notice.

This means no adoptions; no surrenders; no walk-in retail sales; and no direct services.

If you are a regular customer of cat food/litter/flea and worm treatment, you may wish to phone us on 9557 4818 to place an order which we can prepare for you to pick-up.

We are still available to provide assistance on cat-care matters,

The NSW State Emergency Service has developed a vital new resource – Get Ready Animals – to help people plan for the safe care of animals – including pets – during emergencies.

The website includes a template emergency plan, important links for emergency information and assistance. Cat Protection was pleased to participate in a workshop to help inform the development of these important resources. This summer has been a tragic reminder that disasters may give little warning but have a very big impact.

Cat Protection was honoured to receive an award in the inaugural Companion Animal Rescue Awards earlier in the year. Our Good Neighbour Project won the Community Education and Outreach Program category, we are very grateful to be given the opportunity to spread the message of responsible cat ownership to a wider audience and be recognised amongst so many wonderful rescue groups. Jiminy was thrilled with the news and even more excited to receive some of the amazing prizes.
