How to adopt an animal from CAS
If you see a cat or dog that you would like to adopt, you must telephone the fosterer whose telephone number appears with the cat or dogs details. Please do not send emails in regard to adoption. Thank you.
Our volunteers are not able to answer the phone before 9am or after 7pm except in an emergency.
Do we ask for a donation when someone adopts an animal?
Yes, we do ask for a donation upon adoption of an animal, to give you an idea, we generally ask for a minimum donation of £65 per cat/kitten. In certain circumstances, this can be adjusted depending on the animal adopted and is at the discretion of the fosterer.
Please note if we are happy to home a cat or dog with you a lot will depend on what is available for homing at the time of your call.
Bob - A former un-neutered stray tom.
Meet Bob. As you can see he has a been through the wars, and this is a consequence of not being neutered. Un-neutered males stray and fight, receiving injuries that may become infected and form an abcess.
This sort of suffering can easily be avoided by simply having your cat neutered. Free neutering is available
at many vets under the C4 scheme. Fortunately, Bob is now safely in our care and having treatment for his injuries. He has also been neutered. His wound will take sometime to heal but the vet is hopeful that he will be make a full recovery. We are not sure what the cause was but it could have been the result of an untreated abscess or a burn of some kind. Although Bob is not quite ready for rehoming we thought we would put him on the website to show what can happen to un-neutered toms. He is an amenable chap, completely docile and loves his food. If someone would like to offer him a home we'd love to hear from you.
Please phone Anna on 020 8698 6813 or 07790 337119
Homes desperately needed!
Homes are always desperately needed, so if you can offer one or more cats or kittens a home there are lots to choose from on the cats and kittens pages. The fosterers will be glad to receive your calls.

Please note that our volunteers are not able to answer the phone before 12noon and after 7pm so please do not call outside of these hours except in an emergency - Thank You. If you are calling from a mobile telephone please be prepared to call us back as due to limited funds we are unable to return calls to numbers that are not landline numbers.
Not Just Croydon
Croydon Animal Samaritans have been helping and rescuing animals since 1974. We have many volunteers all working hard to rescue, foster and rehome all animals taken into our care.
Contrary to what our name suggests we cover a wide area not just Croydon. Our name was originally 'Animal Samaritans' but changed to Croydon Animal Samaritans when we found that another group had started using the same name.
We always have many animals that are desperately in need of loving homes, most of which you can find right here on the website. If you are not able to offer a home, you can still help by sponsoring any of the cats and dogs or feral cats who we are unable to home but who still need our care.
Another important part of Croydon Animal Samaritans is the fundraising side of the charity. As well as an Open Day every Summer we also have a fund raising shop in Croydon, please see our News page.
We rely totally on donations and fund raising to support the work we do.
We also have several foster homes across Surrey and into London, so we cater for a huge area to rehome the many cats and dogs that we rescue. We have foster homes that cater for West Sussex too. Please see the link for Areas Covered for more details on where are fosterers are currently based.
All of our cats have been checked for good health and are neutered and vaccinated wherever necessary.
If you are interested in offering a home to any of our animals or maybe you would like to help with one of our fundraising events by participating or donating goods then please contact us on our General Helpline (see above).
