Cats Protection Wellington / May 2025
When Cats Protection Wellington was begun in 1982, it was one of the first voluntary charities in NZ that was dedicated solely to the welfare of cats. The first president, Catherine la Roche, modelled it on the Cats Protection League in the UK. In 1983 Carol Kisby, the second president, donated a space behind the Penthouse Theatre in Brooklyn for CPL, and by 1986 this had become our first shelter.
