Donations to the bank If you prefer to donate direct to our bank, you can do this using online banking, by going into the bank or by standing order. Thank you. Expand Our bank details are: Yorkshire Bank, KeighleySort code – 05-05-35Account number – 17488411Account name: Yorkshire Cat Rescue 1160138 If you make an anonymous donation in this way it is unlikely that we will be able to acknowledge it, or send you copies of our newsletter, as the bank do not provide us with your address details. If we are able to identify you from the donation we will be able to acknowledge receipt. We are also unable to claim Gift Aid unless you identify yourself and your donation to us. You can also download a standing order form to make a regular donation - monthly, weekly, quarterly, annually or as often as you wish. Regular donations really help us plan and the money from the regular donations goes towards our vet bills each month. You can download a standing order form here - please send it to the address on the form once you have completed it.
Items for the cats If you prefer to donate items rather than money, please take a look here and see if there is anything you'd like to donate. Expand The address for delivery is: Yorkshire Cat Rescue, Lower Pierce Close, Cross Roads, Keighley BD22 9AQ. If you sign up to Give As You Live first, you might also raise a bit of extra cash for our cats when you make your purchase. You could buy something from our Amazon Wishlist (and you could sign up to Amazon Smile to create an extra donation). Or from a pet store such as Pets At Home or Zooplus. The things we need most are wet food, litter and toys, but if you see something else you feel our cats would enjoy, please do send it to us for them. If you'd like to help us tame up those nervous kittens who were born outside, perhaps you'd buy us a cage. They are ideal for making kittens feel safe and teaching them how to trust people. Or perhaps you would like to make a no-cost donation. We can always use clean old towels, balls of wool, knitted or crocheted blankets (approx 18 x 18 inches).
Save cats with a gift in your will A gift in your will can save many precious cats and kittens each year, rescuing them from harm and dangerous situations, and giving them warmth, care and love until they are adopted into forever homes where they will receive the love and comfort they deserve. Please remember Yorkshire Cat Rescue with a legacy when you write your will. Expand Leaving a gift in your will to Yorkshire Cat Rescue is a wonderful way for cat lovers like you to save the lives of cats and kittens for years to come. Cats like Valentine. His owner was evicted and had to live in his car. Valentine’s mum was pregnant and gave birth to Valentine and his brothers in the car. Yorkshire Cat Rescue was able to take Valentine and his family and place them in a safe and loving foster home until they were big enough to be rehomed. Valentine is now a much-adored member of his family. Without legacy gifts from cat lovers like yourself, we would not be able to help so many helpless kittens like Valentine and give them the chance of a happy and loving home. Once you have provided for your loved ones, please remember Yorkshire Cat Rescue when you’re writing your will. You can leave a donation to be used in our general funds, or you can specify how you would like your legacy to be used – for example to pay for neutering or other vet bills. And please remember to take care of your own cats in your will. You can leave instructions in your will that your cats are to be rehomed by Yorkshire Cat Rescue. Each and every gift can help to make a lasting difference to the work of Yorkshire Cat Rescue – giving many more cats a second chance to find love and putting smiles on faces as they “make a house a home”.
