Monthly sponsorship
Sponsor a cat
From £30 a month — a monthly donation named after pod care, receipts by email, and a gift card you can print for someone else.

How does cat sponsorship work?
Cat sponsorship through Charity Shop is a monthly gift to WARN’s general fund, inspired by the care of rescue cats. £30 a month is the suggested amount, named after a clean, heated pod with bedding, food and daily care for one cat — giftable in someone's name, with a gift card you print yourself.
Who should skip this: Skip this if you wanted to rehome a cat in the UK, needed Gift Aid, or expected a posted toy pack. Sponsorship is a monthly gift to WARN’s general fund, named after a kind of care; nobody takes the animal home. You can cancel through WARN.
Do I own or adopt this cat?
No. A monthly sponsorship here is a gift to WARN’s general fund at a suggested amount, named after a kind of care. It is not a pet and not a wild-animal adoption pack. If it is a present, print a gift card to hand over. Compare the models in sponsor vs adopt and symbolic vs care gifts.
Your sponsorship tier
You'll review the gift, optionally add a recipient's name, then complete the donation on World Animal Rescue Network's secure page with the monthly option already selected.

Where your sponsorship goes
Donations are received by World Animal Rescue Network, a community interest company with a statutory asset lock — no shareholders, no private gain — which is developing its grant-making: it assesses animal-welfare organisations before agreeing support and publishes grant records as they become available. The about page states the exact legal structure; the amounts on this page are suggested donations, reviewed quarterly (last review 22 October 2026).

Cat sponsorship questions
What does a cat pod sponsorship cover?
It is named after a heated pod, clean bedding, food and daily care for one rescue cat — a suggested £30 a month. Vaccinations and neutering are separate one-off gifts (£12 and £22) if you'd rather give once.
Can I sponsor a cat as a gift for someone?
Yes. Add their name when you review the gift and make them a printable gift card to open. WARN emails the payment receipts to you and sends no certificate, so the card is the part they keep.
