Cat Protection Society of Victoria

Australia’s Largest Cat Welfare Organisation

Cats are our passion! We have been helping stray, wild and unwanted cats and kittens since 1947. Our services include re-homing cats and kittens, reuniting lost cats with their owners, trapping wild cats and operating a feline veterinary clinic.

Our society relies on community support through membership fees, donations and legacies to carry out our work.

Our Greensborough hostel can accommodate up to 300 cats and kittens and we are happy to help you with any feline questions.

All cats and kittens brought to the hostel get a veterinary examination before being offered for adoption. Our animals are all de-sexed, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed and defleaed prior to sale and come with a two week health cover.

Our veterinary clinic aims to provide a quality service to the public at welfare rates so that all cats in need of medical attention can be helped.

During “kitten season” the demands on our society are enormous so our resources are strained to the limit.

We work with government at all levels and other animal welfare agencies to promote the welfare of cats and responsible pet ownership.
