Sponsor a Catwel cat today - You know you want to

Catwel has  permanent resident cats who, for one reason or another, are considered unsuitable for adoption. All these cats have ongoing social or medical problems.

We endeavour to provide them with as normal a life as possible, providing food, litter and veterinary treatment whenever possible.

By making a regular monthly donation of £3, £4 or £5 (or more!) you can help contribute to our costs throughout the year, and help make a real difference to the lives of these needy cats.

Sponsorship would make a lovely gift for a feline loving friend, relative or even yourself. In return you will receive a copy of Catwel's newsletter. You can also ask for a photograph of your cat.

So, please - help a cat in need today. Have a look at the cats on this section of the website and then contact us for an application form on catwelcardiff@yahoo.com stating you would like to be a sponsor and give your full name and address please so we can send a form to you. Thank you



This is our sponsor cat summer enclosure. Purpose built for these special cats.


This is our little Princess. She came to Catwel in 2012 having been returned from a previous home. We again managed to re-home her in 2013 but again she was returned due to being extremely shy. She is confident with us her carers but is a little complex and requires a whole lot of patience but we love her. She is now 4 years old.

If you cant have a cat why not sponsor one its the next best thing. Thank You


This our lovely Gypsy who came with the property. He has got to be 10+years and is now showing his age. He loves the nice sunny weather in the garden but mostly stays in the warm in the cold months of the year.

Penny was found on a main road in the city.

She was picked up by a kind passer-by and taken for emergency veterinary treatment. Penny had a prolapsed bowel. After surgery to stitch the bowel in to place, Penny was discharged.

Unfortunately the condition continued and after months of operations and trips to the vets there seemed to be no sign of improvement.

Penny was so loving and playful and perfectly fit in every other way. Her fosterer just could not give up – the only other option was euthanasia.

After numerous dietary changes and prescribed tranquillisers Penny seemed to improve as she grew. She is now 17 years old – but still thinks she is a kitten!
