Our Mission statement.
Cat Watch’s Mission is to provide sensitive care and rehoming for the unowned cats of the locality – abandoned, lost, and street cats. Where possible we also attempt to find the owner and cover a 30 mile radius from Amesbury near Salisbury, in Wiltshire and South Hants.
24/25 may: Durrington vintage show.

Meet Dudley
Dudley is a very chilled out, sweet boy who can quite happily relax in a comfy spot all day and likes head pats. He has excellent house manners and is litter trained
Dudley gets very excited for his food and will make the cutest chirps when he knows he's getting fed. Though he's not a kitten he can be coaxed to play with ribbons and once he has settled in he will become more playful.
Dudley would be best suited in a home as an only cat, with adults / older children.
💟 I am 7 - 8 years old.
💩 Toilet trained.
👶🏼 Good with gentle, older children.
🐱 I'm a cool cat so may get on with feline friends
🏡 Fostered in Amesbury.
🧸 I love things that move!
🩺 Vet Checked, spayed, vaccinated, microchipped & pest treated. 4 weeks free insurance & full health report.
If Dudley sounds like the new family member you have been searching for, go to our adoption process page on the website to apply for adoption & a meet & greet. We ask that all our cats have access to outside.
*A questionnaire must be completed for all adoptions to ensure animals go to well suited homes & families.

Follow the adventures of Picklerick our mascot!
Picklerick was abandoned as a six week old kitten. The CWRS shelter rescued him and even though he has no vision he roams freely returning to CWRS for love (and dinner!) each day. He is the bravest most resilient cat so follow his adventures in Amesbury on his blog. He writes it himself honestly!

This new law is intended to help reunite lost cats with their owners and reduce the number of cats entering shelters. As a cat rescue, we strongly recommend that all cat owners comply with the law and have their cats microchipped. Those who fail to comply may be fined up to £500. We are here to help you with any questions you have regarding the microchipping process.
