Animal Welfare (Furness)
Area: Barrow
Purpose/aim of your organisation:
We rescue, rehabilitate and rehome cats which have been abandoned, injured or otherwise been made homeless.
List of activities and/or services provided by your organisation:
We operate a Trap Neuter Release scheme (TNR). This involves responding to calls from (usually) members of the public regarding cats which are feral (very often pregnant or with kittens). We also take in cats which have been injured (such as road traffic accidents), cats which are homeless because elderly owners going into a care home are unable to continue looking after them. Cats which have been trapped or donated to us are taken to a local vet to be neutered, vaccinated, wormed, treated for fleas, and checked for any possible infections. This involves a considerable cost to us and can be several thousands of pounds each month. The cats can then be considered for rehoming.
