About Us
Powys Cat Rescue was officially formed in 2002, with the opening of the first fund raising shop in Newtown, Powys. It became known as Powys Animal Welfare, a registered charity (C.N 1098246) in 2003 to acknowledge the fact that we do not only help cats and kittens, but can offer help and advice on the welfare of all animals from cats and dogs, to birds, sheep and even horses.
Over the past few years it has become apparent to us that it is elderly people who often need help with their much loved pets and so the Trustees have made the decision to direct their help to this particular sector. This includes helping when people have been hospitalised and need temporary support or when sadly people are no longer able to care for their pets, through long term illness or even death.Powys Cat Rescue was officially formed in 2002, with the opening of the first fund raising shop in Newtown, Powys.
