Our Cause
Finding loving new homes for animals across the North East
Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter helps animals that are lost, unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned.
Our objective is the promotion of kindness and prevention of cruelty to animals. We reunite lost animals with their owners and find loving new homes for those no longer wanted.

Sadly, we’re seeing more abandoned and vulnerable pets coming through our doors. But you can help ensure we can continue our work and never turn them away.
Volunteer with us
Volunteers are a crucial part of our team here at Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter. We are lucky and incredibly grateful to have so many loyal and dedicated volunteers and are always looking for new volunteer team members.
