Recommended services

Catteries

We often get asked to recommend catteries by our adopters; we would only endorse those we have personal experience of and know to have the highest standards of care – only the best for our kitties!

Rescue Centres

Speringcourt Animal Rescue

Speringcourt Animal Rescue is a family run rescue near Frome. They are a completely self funded sanctuary for all animals and birds. Speringcourt do a fantastic job and will never turn away any animal in need of their help and will never let an animal be put to sleep while there is hope. You can contact Roy on 01373 812845 or[email protected]

Many Tears: http://www.manytears.co.uk/
Many Tears is a family run rescue based near Llanelli, amongst many others they take in puppies and ex-breeding dogs from the puppy farms and find them loving homes. They have a small cattery too but find it hard to re-home cats in rural Wales so we bring them to Bristol in the hope they can find their happy endings over the bridge.

Golden Lion Rescue

Near Merthyr Tydfil, Golden Lion is a family run rescue taking in any animal that needs help but primarily cats and kittens. They are entirely self-funded and do a wonderful job in an area where there is little help for animals.
