Welcome to your local Cats Protection!

Hello and welcome to Lea Valley Cats Protection branch web site.

Our branch covers a very large area from just south of Hertford down through Enfield, Winchmore Hill, right down to Edmonton, and we stretch from Barnet to the River Lea, so we are very busy! We are a very active branch, and we are always involved in lots of things like activities, giving advice on cat care, going out on intrepid cat rescues, media work, fundraising events, and we have a shop in Enfield.

All the cats on our homing pages are looked after by fosterers in their own homes in pens in their gardens, the pens are very comfy! You can see all the cats we currently have available to go to new homes on the 'Home A Cat' pages, if there are no cats there that fit the bill please keep looking back as they change all the time. If you want to home one of our cats call the Homing Line on 01707 883128.

Others are too old or infirm to be homed, they are looked after by experienced carers and are subsidised by kind people who sponsor them. Very often these cats need special food or medicines to keep them well, and this all costs money. Could you help us by sponsoring a cat? It makes the ideal present for someone who loves cats but cannot own one. You can see all our sponsor cats on our 'Feature Page'.

We have an Enquiry Line which is always available, you can ring the line if you need help or are concerned about the condition of a cat in your area, the Enquiry Line is 0845 371 2740. Although we are often very stretched, we will do whatever we can to help.

We are always trying new ways to try and raise funds as we do not get any money from outside bodies, every penny we spend we have to raise ourselves, so we are forever grateful to the kindness of our benefactors. If anyone can think of crazy ways to raise money, we are listening!

We also need volunteers who are willing to foster cats and also people who have their own transport who can transport cats around our area for us. If you are patient and can also help us trap cats we would like to hear from you as that is also something we are often called on to do. Let us know!

We also always welcome new members!
