PawPurrs Halfway House rescues cats off the streets and from homes where owners are unable to take care of them. We started in 2020 at the start of lockdown and have grown considerably, gaining charity status in December 2021. We rescue strays, toms, cats in need, and pregnant cats, aiming to socialise and rehabilitate them before they are appropriately re-homed, matching them to the right home.
