CAT RESCUE ASSOCIATION 

Our cattery in south Essex provides care for abandoned, lost and injured cats until suitably rehomed. Our core ethics are a non-destruction policy. We are supported by volunteers and donors. We provide life care for ferals and cats that are unsuitable for rehoming. We provide veterinary treatment for cats in need and to ensure that each cat is neutered on arrival.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Established: 27 years
