Frequently asked questions
The £2 Cat Club
›Does my money only go to the cat I choose?
No. Your monthly gift supports all the cats in our care. The cat you choose is the one whose journey and updates you follow.
›What happens when my cat is adopted?
We'll let you know, and you can choose another cat to follow from your supporter dashboard. Your support carries on unchanged.
›How do payments work?
Card payments are taken securely by SumUp, our payment provider; we never see or store your card number. For the Cat Club, your first month is taken when you join and then the same amount on the same date each month. Cancel any time from your My Rescue Crew page and no further payments will be taken. If you change your mind within 14 days of joining, contact us for a full refund.
›Can I cancel?
Yes, at any time, from your My Rescue Crew page. No further payments will be taken. If you change your mind within 14 days of joining, contact us for a full refund.
Adopting
›How much does it cost to adopt?
See how adoption works. We'll talk you through the adoption fee and paperwork before anything is agreed.
›Can I adopt if I rent?
Usually yes, with your landlord's written permission.
›Do you do home checks?
Yes. After you apply we'll have a chat, then arrange a home check or meeting before any adoption goes ahead.
Supporting us

Yes. See the wishlist for what we need most.
