Our Promise
Help us be there every day of the year
Help us keep our promises. At The Sheffield Cats Shelter, we make promises to cats and kittens in need every day of the year. We promise to be there for the cats who need us, to provide the care they deserve and to keep trying, even when the road ahead isn’t easy.
We can’t predict which cat will need us tomorrow. But with your help, we can keep working towards a future where we’re ready to welcome them.
Whether you make a one-off donation, become a regular sponsor, buy a raffle ticket or share our campaign with someone who loves cats, you can help us keep our promises.
Thank you for being part of our shelter family and helping us build a safer, kinder future for Sheffield’s cats.
This Christmas, let’s make a promise, together.
Our Christmas Promise Progress
Every donation and every new sponsor brings us one step closer to our goal. Follow our progress below and see how our shelter community is helping us keep our promises.
Our Donation Goal
£10,000
Every one-off donation helps us meet the needs of the cats in our care right now, providing the essentials and treatment they need.
Our Sponsorship Goal
50 New Sponsors
Regular sponsors give us the steady support we need to plan ahead for every cat who comes through our doors.
Become A Regular Sponsor
We don’t know which cat will need us next. It could be a frightened stray, a poorly cat in need of treatment or a tiny kitten who needs specialist care.
Regular sponsorship gives us a more reliable source of income, helping us plan ahead and prepare for whatever comes through our doors.
Whether you choose to give £5, £10 or £20 a month, your support helps us keep showing up for Sheffield’s cats, not just at Christmas, but throughout the year.
Watch Our Christmas Promise
Behind every promise is a dedicated team that cares for our cats daily, from preparing meals and cleaning to providing veterinary care and support for nervous felines. Watch our campaign video to see how your support makes a difference.
