How You Can Help The Douglas Sanctuary for Cats

The Douglas Sanctuary for Cats is based in Norfolk, caring for cats who need safety, support, or a fresh start.

As a small, self-funded sanctuary, we rely entirely on kind people who choose to help us in whatever way they can. Every donation, wishlist item, share, or message of support truly makes a difference.

Support Our Cats

Every penny goes directly towards vet bills, food, flea/worm treatments, medication, litter, and emergency care.
Even the smallest donation helps us continue our life-saving work.

Send Supplies

If you’d prefer to donate items instead of money, we keep an Amazon Wishlist updated with essentials we always need: food, litter, toys, cleaning supplies, and bedding.

Volunteer

We always need help with fundraising or carrying out gardening/landscaping at the Sanctuary.
So, if you’re up for doing a car boot sale, running a bingo night or enjoy building or gardening we’d love to hear from you!

Make a Donation

Regular or one-off donations are vital for covering ongoing costs like vet visits, vaccinations, microchipping, spay/neuter, specialist food, litter, and long-term cases who need extra care.

If you’d like to make a monetary donation, please contact us and we’ll happily share the details.

Amazon Wishlist

These are the items we need on a regular basis — food, litter, cleaning supplies, enrichment toys, scratch posts, heating pads, towels, grooming tools, and more.

Ordering even one item from our wishlist makes an instant impact.

Become a Foster Carer

Fostering helps us rescue more cats than Sharon can house on her own.

We provide full support, guidance, and cover veterinary care. You provide a safe, caring environment while your foster cat prepares for their forever home.

Volunteer Help

We’re always grateful for people who can help with:

  • Transport to/from the vet
  • Collecting donations or supplies
  • Providing blankets or bedding
  • Sharing posts on social media
  • Helping with fundraising

Every bit of support makes a difference.

Share Our Cats on Social Media

One of the biggest ways you can help, completely for free, is by sharing our posts.

Every share means more people see the cats who are looking for homes, and it helps us reach adopters we couldn’t reach otherwise.

Thank you from the team and all the cats at The Douglas Sanctuary for Cats.

Your kindness helps us continue rescuing, caring for, and rehoming the cats who need it most.
