DOES C.H.A.T HAVE A REHOMING CATCHMENT AREA?
Answer – Yes, we seek to rehome our animals close to our rehoming centres.

Each Branch or centre has established their own rehoming area based on factors such as the best use of limited resources and how many trained home visitors they have available to carry out home visits which are a time consuming but very important part of ensuring that our animals are rehomed not only to good homes but to suitable homes that meet their needs. Secondly, we like to be close enough that if follow up support is required in settling in a newly adopted animal that a member of our rehoming teams is able to visit to give all the help that you require.
