CatRescue Needs Your Help

For all the CatRescue has done to help collect the rest of Molly's family off the streets, I want to help them in return and this is something you might be able to help me with.


CatRescue is a network of normal every day people.  They have normal day jobs, they don’t get paid or funded to do CatRescue, they are all volunteers who give up space in their own homes to rescue and rehabilitate abandoned and neglected animals. They have around 50 carers around Sydney and a management team to help co-ordinate the lot.

CatRescue has a NO KILL Policy.  Killing homeless or unwanted animals is not in their best interest and provides only a short term and convenient solution to a human problem. CatRescue is dedicated to promoting the concept of ‘no-kill’ and believes that every animal has the right to live. They are committed to caring for every animal that enters its program regardless of the time and resources required to find their forever home.

Although always looking for foster carers and permanent homes for these animals, they also need donations. 


If you can help with any of the listed items below, please let me know and I'll arrange to come and pick up the items:




  • Old towels (urgent) - excellent bedding, cage liners and carry cage material!  

  • Cheap cat bowls or plastic containers - like the ones you see in chinese take aways - rapid feeding and cleaning

  • Cheap bleach - no frills brand domestos (about 1/3rd of the price, we go through a LOT of this!)

  • Cleaning products (ajax, garbage bags, scrubbers, spray and wipe, washing detergent, that kind of stuff .  think domestic cleaning x 100)

  • Cat Litter and cheap litter trays ($2 shop ones) - are given to rehomers and are also reused for all sorts of things like cat beds, houses and cleaning helpers
  • Tins of cat food - to feed the cats! 

  • Dry Cat Food - any quality

  •  Old cat beds, cat scratching posts and poles - self explanatory, the cats love them!

  •  A4 paper- for signs and posters to rehome cats!

  •  Cat Toys - the little mice are the best - the kittens love them, nothing too expensive or complex as they just get eaten

  •  An old vacuum cleaner

Again, if anyone can help, just email me.


Thanks, Sarah xxx
