About Save These Paws
Save These Paws brings together cats from shelters across the UK into one simple, searchable directory. Our mission is to help every shelter cat find a loving home by making it easier for adopters to discover them.
We collect cat profiles from rescue organisations to surface their cats, complete with photos, personality details, and shelter contact information. Users can browse from the comfort of their sofa and connect directly with the shelter when they find the cat they love.
How it works

Our values
- Adoption first. We believe every cat deserves a chance at a forever home.
- Shelters only. We exclusively list cats from registered shelters and rescue organisations — never from breeders or private individuals.
- Free for shelters. We provide our platform at no cost, helping shelters reach more potential adopters without any fees.
- Transparency. All cats on the platform are real listings from verified shelters.
Attribution
All photos and descriptions are sourced from shelter websites to showcase their animals. We provide link back to the original shelter page where the photos and descriptions were sourced. We may use AI to enhance photos and re-write descriptions in order to make them more appealing to potential adopters. However, we never change the core information about the cat, only the presentation.
