Absolutely! You are welcome to sponsor more than one of our sponsor cats, or you can sponsor a cat room to provide care for every cat that stays there throughout the year. Alternatively, you can provide a sponsorship directly to the general care of our cats with a Memorial Sponsorship.

Your sponsorship will go towards the care of your chosen cat or room.

For sponsor cats this means contributing to their vet bills including medicine, specialist food, surgeries, and any other treatments they might need.

For cat rooms, this means contributing towards their food, treats, cat beds and other amenities (scratching posts, litter trays and litter, etc.), as well as the upkeep of their room.

If you would like to make a general contribution to the care of our cats you can do this via our Memorial Sponsorship, which will help towards the overall care of our cats as it is needed most. This can go to food, litter, vet bills, or any other aspect of essential cat care.

Any money leftover from your sponsorship will be put towards the care of other cats who might need more immediate or emergency care.

When you sponsor one of our cats you will receive quarterly updates allowing you to follow the story of the cat you are supporting, with photos and quotes from their owner. Not only that, but you will also receive a welcome pack, a sponsorship certificate, and you will be signed up to our monthly newsletter to get the latest behind-the-scenes news about the Shelter.

If you sponsor one of our cat rooms you will get monthly updates about the cats that have been in that room, how they came to us, how we have helped them settle, and how they have recovered if they came to us with any health concerns.

By contributing to our Legacy Sponsorship, you will have receive updates for a sponsor cat and sponsor room of your choice, so that you can get a broader view of how your contribution is supporting all of our cats.

Absolutely! Just select the sponsorship option you would like to gift and select “This is a gift sponsorship” on the page that follows. When you have done this and selected your payment method your friend or loved one will receive a message telling them about their new gift (with a customised message of your choice) followed by everything our sponsorships normally provide (see above).

You can make a single annual payment for a small discount compared to monthly payments if you wish. These are ideal for people looking to buy sponsorships as gifts for their friends or who want to make an immediate difference to the care of our cats.

You can get in touch via our dedicated sponsorships mailbox at sponsorship@thesheffieldcatsshelter.org.uk
