THE GINGER CAT HOUSE RESCUE
At GCH we rescue cats and kittens in the SW London and Surrey area. We offer shelter and sanctuary by providing appropriate care, protection, treatment and security for cats and kittens in need of our help by reason of sickness, maltreatment, poor circumstances or ill usage and abandonment. We rehome such cats where possible, and offer sanctuary to those which cannot be re-homed.
