Betty's Boarders 2.73

At Betty's Boarders we take in & look after many cats that have had a tough time of things & have nowhere else to go. Once they have been assessed & are ready for re-homing we look to find them loving, safe homes in/around the Ipswich area. We will home up to approx 20 mile radius (30 minute drive) of Ipswich, but do prefer to keep the kits close by incase any support or back-up is needed).

We work with a few local cat rescues as well as independently, sponsoring/funding many of the kits in our care.

Betty's will have around 30 kits in our care at any one time. Currently we have 8 resident cats, (all rescue of course).

Betty's also works with several cat rescues/welfare groups overseas in Romania, Turkey, Spain & Egypt, that focus on looking after local strays & feral cats, feeding them, giving them emergency vet care & working on TNR (trap neuter release) projects. When we can we will offer a foster placement to cats from overseas to give them the chance at the life they deserve.

Betty's is not a cat "rescue" as such, but we are completely devoted to providing our fosters the the love & care they need while they are with us & before sending them onto their new families & the lives they deserve. If you would like to donate to help the cats in our care, you can donate via Paypal using bettysboarders@outlook.com - Thank you.

A "Betty" is an old East Anglian Colloquialism for a female cat, as a "Tom" cat is well known to be a male cat. So "Betty" is our figurehead, the "Auntie" who takes in the kits that need her & give them the love & care they need until they find their forever homes.
