Cat Action Trust 1977 is a small national charity dedicated to the welfare of feral cats

CAT 1977 helps feral cats by limiting their numbers through neutering and returning to site, by providing veterinary care where necessary, and by finding homes for kittens and tame stray cats.

In this website you will also find help if you have found a feral, stray or lost cat or have any questions on cat care.
