Did you know?

In 2009 the RSPCA Chesterfield & North Derbyshire Branch sucessfully re-homed 263 cats into new and loving homes.

Thank you to everyone who gave one of our cats a new home and a second chance in life. We would also like to thank all our supporters for their kindness and generosity, without your support our work would not be possible.

Conditions of adoption

We are looking for life-long, permanent homes for our cats and we need to be sure you can provide such a home. This means we have to ask questions about your personal circumstances, including your ability to meet routine and emergency Vet bills, which will become solely your responsibility following adoption.
All members of the household must come to the animal centre before a cat can be reserved for you. We will normally "hold" the cat of your choice for 48 hours, this will allow everyone to come along and agree to the new addition. We do require proof of vaccination for your existing pet before any mixing can take place.
All existing cats in the household should ideally be neutered but definitely vaccinated as the RSPCA promotes good pet ownership. We will need to see proof of vaccination if you have an existing cat.
A home checker will need to visit you at home before you can adopt any animal.
Young animals need almost constant company. Kittens are better re-homed in pairs if their owners work full time or are away from the home the majority of the day.

We may arrange to do a post adoption visit to see how your new cat is settling in

Veterinary fees become the sole responsibility of the adopter once the cat has left the re-homing centre
