Our Work

Supporting our local community

Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter host events throughout the North East as well as on site at our rehoming centre in Benton.

We also work to give back to the community around us in sharing the joy of our animals with vulnerable people and those in need.

Your donations help support the work we do not only in the shelter, but amongst our community.
