In the charity's own words
CWRS helps abandoned/injured/stray cats across Wilts, Hants and further. We run a TNR programme to help with the unowned cat communities. We also help people with requirements of rehoming or neutering. We offer free advice and guidance on cats and signpost to other areas should we not be able to answer. We also find new homes for strays after medical treatment has been completed.
