Honestly, I think people jump to call charities scams way too often. Like, the Cats Protection lot aren’t out to fool anyone, they’re just doing their bit. Maybe if you’re not keen on donating, it can come across dodgy, but that doesn’t make them scammers.

Picked up the phone but there was silence, and then the call ended. Reading the other replies, it looks like it’s a marketing call for Cats Protection. I’ve backed them for ages, so it’s likely legit. Could’ve just been a bad connection or something that made the call drop.

I got a call from a company named Ethicall, who were fundraising for Cats Protection. It wasn’t a scam or anything dodgy, and they didn’t push me to donate. I think they rang me because I made a donation to Cats Protection not long ago.

Got a call from AQL wholesale or something like that, sounded like one of those charity scams. I usually just ignore any unknown numbers, especially if I don’t see a name attached. I figure if it's legit, they’d leave a voicemail anyway. Honestly, I hardly ever pick up on random calls these days - too many dodgy ones out there. Had a close call with a scam before, so now I’m extra careful. Not risking it again!

Got a call around 6.45pm from a woman claiming to be from Cats Protection. She mentioned she’d just sent some money for raffle tickets. When I asked what the call was regarding, she just said she wanted to tell me about their work. I told her no thanks. I really don’t like getting calls in the evening, especially when I’m expecting something important. Lots of people say the number’s legit, but can we be 100% certain? I already have all the info I need in the leaflets they’ve sent me.

I got a call from Cats Protection and it seemed completely genuine. They weren’t pushing for extra donations or anything, just wanted to say thanks for the money I’d given. They mentioned something about gift aid, asking if I knew about it and whether I was a UK tax payer so it could be added on to make my donation go further. Since I’m not, they just kindly thanked me once more and then ended the call nicely.

I'm pretty sure this number belongs to Cats Protection and it’s not a scam at all. I've given donations before and they do ring me from this number now and then. I guess it might feel a bit annoying if they call you out of the blue though.

Loads of charities need help badly but not those pesky cats that wreck wildlife. If you're gonna donate, always go straight to the charity’s proper site and add gift aid, don’t just give over the phone. Scammers like to pretend they’re real charity numbers to trick kind folks out of their money. Never, ever pick up or reply to some random cold call about donations - it could end up costing you a fortune!

A person phoned me saying they were calling on behalf of Cats Protection. At first I thought it might be genuine because I’d recently sorted out a will to ensure my cat had care after I’m gone. But then they began by thanking me for a donation and said I’d shown interest, which made me suspicious. When I probed why they were ringing, they told me it was a fundraising call and that I had apparently agreed to be contacted at some point. They then asked if I wanted to be taken off their call list, which I said yes to. After that, they wished me a nice day and ended the call.

So, this number belongs to Cats Protection, and it’s actually listed on their official website as a genuine contact. I’ve been a regular donor for quite a few years now but getting 7 calls in just over a week asking me to donate more feels a bit excessive, if I’m honest. It’s starting to seem a bit much.

Got a call at work from someone saying they were with the Cats Protection League, asking specifically for me by name. They were quite pushy, insisting on telling me how I could support their fundraising efforts. I never gave this charity my contact details, so I reckon they must have got my info from somewhere without my okay. Whether it’s actually the charity or just someone pretending, calling up folks like this without permission seems pretty dodgy to me. Told them I wasn't interested and have blocked the number since.
