Long term foster for elderly cats
Yorkshire Cat Rescue says it is committed to caring for elderly and ill cats until it is the right time to say goodbye. Some cats it takes in are very old with complex issues, or terminally ill, and it doesn't rehome them because the vet costs could be too much for a new owner. They go to a long term foster home for as long as they have quality of life, and the rescue pays their vet bills, food and other costs.
What an older rescue cat costs near Leeds
Yorkshire Cat Rescue charges £125 for an adult cat and £230 for a bonded adult pair, towards neutering, microchipping, vaccinations and flea and worm treatment.
