About

Coventry Cat Group have been working hard for the last 20 years!

We are a group dedicated to helping and caring for the welfare and improving the quality of life of abandoned or feral cats in and around Coventry.
We respond to calls for help from the public and other organisations, e.g. PDSA, when we are told cats, kittens or families of cats (mum and kittens) are apparently abandoned living in gardens or on the highway, or surviving rough as ferals. We catch the strays and take them to a veterinary centre for an assessment of their condition. They are treated as necessary and checked for an identity ‘chip’. If there is no ‘chip’, they are placed with fosterers while we make efforts to identify any owners by enquiries in the vicinity or through another local charity called ‘Pet Search’. If that fails, we adopt the cats into Coventry Cat Group’s care for re-homing.
After neutering, if appropriate, we try to find each cat a loving new home. Kittens that are homed are ALWAYS required to be neutered when old enough. Cats which are not domesticated are relocated where possible at farms or riding stables or returned to their original habitat and arrangements are made for them to be regularly fed.

If necessary, we try to place an old cat in a charitable home for ageing and sick animals.
These methods prove to be extremely successful.
We follow a policy of never having a cat ‘put to sleep’ unless it is suffering extreme distress from untreatable conditions.
