About Persian Rescue
We have set up a small Persian rescue centre at our home. We are a voluntary organisation, rescuing and re-homing unwanted Persian cats.
My husband and I have been working with rescued Persian cats for nineteen years, since first rescuing Candy a tricolour Persian shown in our logo‘s. We had been supporting the Persian rescue centre in Dorset until it closed. I have worked as a Vet receptionist and assistant to the Vet for last six and a half years at Brimsham Veterinary Clinic.
We opened our rescue centre on the 22nd May 2004. It was officially opened by Mark Astbury of Winterbourne & Brimsham Veterinary Clinics, who won the Pet Plan vet of the year award 2004.
We currently have eight large veterinary pens, this enables us to provide a clean and comfortable environment for the rescued Persians.
There is also an large outdoor exercise pen attached which is used for exercise and a change of environment during their stay with us.
Please ring 01454 250548 for any enquiries about the rescuing or homing of Persian cats, all visits will be strictly by appointment only.
All cats prior to being homed will have:-
- Have a veterinary health check
- FELV-FIV blood tested if necessary.
- Fully vaccinated if needed
- Neutered if needed
- Wormed
- Flea treatment
- Dental treatment if needed
Home Checks will be carried out prior to re-homing.
We are helped and supported by National Animal Sanctuaries Support League (Bristol Branch) which is a registered charity.

In order to keep the rescue centre solvent we do our own fund raising for Persian Rescue. We attend local cat shows where we sell our Persian Rescue items along with other cat items and home made produce. Also we raise funds at car boot sales, and anywhere else that we are invited to promote Persian Rescue.
We are always grateful for any donations to keep the rescue centre going, so that we can continue to care for the Persian cats that come our way.
