Cheltenham Animal Shelter is a charity that has been helping animals since 1926. We rescue and rehome around 650 abandoned and unwanted cats, dogs and small animals every year at a cost of £750,000. We receive no government funding and rely on the generosity of our supporters and local businesses to continue our vital work. Our mission is to provide shelter for homeless domestic animals from across the county whilst attempting to locate caring new homes. We also aim to educate members of the public and professionals in correct and appropriate animal husbandry through our education programmes. We are a member of the Association of Dogs and Cats Homes and we adhere to, and exceed, their code of practice and we are very careful to ensure that each and every animal goes to the right home. The Shelter has its own on-site Vet Practice, CASVet, so all our animals receive the veterinary care they require immediately. CASVet also offer affordable veterinary care to the local community. We also have dog and cat boarding facilities, Short Bark and Sides dog grooming parlour and an on-site Charity Shop. Your support ensures that this level of care can continue, giving homeless animals that arrive at the shelter the best possible care until loving new homes are found.
