Cats Protection Edinburgh South Clerk Street Charity Shop

Due to short-staffing, we will be closed all this week. We apologise for any inconvenience.

We apologise for the recent shop closures. We will be open from Thursday to Saturday this week!

Autumn is here and so is our autumn stock! Why not pop into our shop at 34 South Clerk Street and see whar's new?

Want to do something that's good for your health and helps cats? Perhaps you could be the next #catchampion to sign up for our September fundraiser, the Nine Mile Challenge!
Don't worry, you don't have to run if you don't want to - you can even spread the distance out as a set of short daily walks! Also, if you raise £50 or more, you'll receive a certificate and an exclusive badge as a special thank you from Cats Protection.

It's been scorching hot lately, so we thought we'd share a few tips about helping your cat handle the summer weather!

Our charity shop relies on volunteers to help us raise money for cats in need – could you spare a little time to help out?
Our volunteers take part in the everyday running of our lovely charity shop. No prior experience is necessary, just an enthusiastic can-do attitude and a willingness to learn.
We can teach you how to provide excellent customer service, make attractive visual displays, sort donations, and maximise our fundraising. Along with this on-the-job training, all ...our volunteers receive free access to our online training modules. Certificates can be printed for CVs, and your volunteering hours can be put towards the Duke of Edinburgh Award and any other relevant schemes.
We are an equal opportunities employer and we're happy to discuss any adjustments you might need. If you're aged 14 or over and can spare one hour a week or more, we'd love to hear from you!
