Register your cat

By registering your cat as a blood donor, you will play a vital role in helping to save the lives of other cats.

When we receive your registration, a member of our team will get in touch to talk further about your cat, check their suitability to become a donor, and explain what to expect when you bring them to donate. Your cat’s welfare is always our priority and we want to ensure they will enjoy the donation process.

We are gradually building our donation sessions across the UK as we develop our feline service. We need a minimum of 20 cats in an area for us to hold a session, so please ask your friends to consider registering their cats too.

Cat's details
Does your cat weigh over 4.5 kilograms (9.9 pounds / 0.7 stone)? *

Unfortunately, your cat is too light to donate. However, there are plenty of other ways you can help us!

Aged between one and eight years? *

Sorry, cats must be between 1 and 8 years old to donate. However, there are plenty of other ways you can help us!

Does your cat have any health problems or medical conditions? *
Is your cat taking medication for this condition?

It is unlikely that your cat will be able to donate. Please email us at feline@petbloodbankuk.org so we can discuss this with you.

Depending on the condition, your cat might be able to donate. Please email us at feline@petbloodbankuk.org so we can discuss this with you.

Does your cat have a history of heart murmurs or seizures? *

We’re really sorry, your cat won’t be able to donate. However, there are plenty of other ways you can help us!

Has your cat ever received a blood transfusion? *

We’re really sorry, cats who have received a transfusion are unable to become blood donors. This is because they may have developed antibodies in their blood that could cause a serious reaction if that blood was donated and given to another cat. We understand that owners whose cats have received a transfusion often want to give back so there are plenty of other ways you can help us!

Was your cat born outside of the UK or Ireland or have they ever travelled outside the UK or Ireland? *

We’re really sorry, only cats who have never left the UK or Ireland can donate. This is because there are a number of blood borne diseases in cats which are present in other countries but not yet prevalent in the UK. However, there are plenty of other ways you can help us!

We’re really sorry, your cat is unlikely to be a suitable donor. We want all our donors to enjoy the process and if your cat is very anxious, we know they are unlikely to enjoy coming to our donation sessions. However, there are plenty of other ways you can help us!

How well does your cat travel in a carrier? *

Part of the donation process involves us shaving two patches of your cat’s fur using an electric shaver. Do you feel your cat would be calm in a situation like this? *

As part of the donation process, your cat’s fur will be clipped. It would be helpful to do some training with your cat on this before coming along to a donation session. Visit our page on training your cat for donation for guidance on how to do this.

For your cat to settle and be comfortable and relaxed while giving blood, we encourage you to come into the donation session with them and stay for the duration. We expect the donation appointment to take approximately 2-2.5 hours. Is this something you would be happy to do? *
Is your cat neutered? *
