Yarm Cat Rescue Expansion
Donation protected
Yarm Cat Rescue has been running for about 12 years, starting off helping one or two stray cats and working with feral cats, to TNR (trap, neuter, release) and rehoming kittens in 2006. Over the years we have grown and grown and we are helping more and more cats in need, up to 50 in kitten season. This is when we started up our Facebook group and website, in 2014 and 2015.
We run the rescue from our own home and get no funding from anywhere.
We rely solely on donations from supporters, and holding fundraising events at Ingleby Pet Supplies at Ingleby Barwick, who have supported us for years.
We have an amazing team of guys around us who offer their time to take cats to the vets, send us donations of food and bedding.
We have support from our vets, Tees Vets. And more support from Grange vets at Norton and Jacqui Patterson's vets at Preston Farm, who have drop off points for us.
We would like to expand the rescue by building an outdoor catio for the rescues, so that they have a safe outdoor space to go into.
We would also like to build a cattery outside, which would help us to help even more cats in our area.
Any support you could give us would be amazing to help us reach this goal ❤❤
Here are some testimonials from people who have adopted from us -
Kate adopted Sunny :
We adopted Sunny from Yarm Cat Rescue and would recommend it to anyone considering getting a cat or kitten. Janey cares for and loves every animal and is always there for help and guidance.
Maggie adopted Boston & Bailey:
We adopted 2 kittens in September. Sprout (now known as Boston) didn’t seem to be able to get re-homed so we chose him to come with us and Bailey, a tiny black/brown kitten who was on his own in the world having lost his mum and siblings. Both boys were amazingly well cared for by Janey & Co and we had no hesitation in bringing them home to meet our girls, Renee now 6 years old and Kitty now 4 years old. The boys are totally adorable, loving and incredibly happy. Boston is a ‘daddy’s boy’ and Bailey loves to sit by me holding his front paws for comfort! The kittens were fearless regarding our older cats, wanting to play and catch tails, much to the annoyance of Renee who is a huge Maine Coon girl, at least 3 times the size of Bailey. So much happiness and joy having them as part of our family. Many thanks to Janey.

We got Jake from Janey at YCR in October. From the minute we started speaking to Janey she made us feel at ease and we completely trusted all her expert guidance to choose our rescue cat. We were trying to find company for our other young cat Colin who is a little nervous (of everything!) and we have been given a great match.
