Project Overview
We are thrilled to have completed our second state-of-the-art build for Cats Protection. The Axhayes Centre is a brand new flagship adoption facility boasting 66 pens, including 12 maternity and five specialist isolation areas for the 750 cats who come through the centre’s doors each year.
We have also created new and improved working spaces for volunteers and staff and a fantastic landscaped garden area which the cats can view from their pens and which will provide a restful area for visitors, staff and volunteers.
Catherine Hodson, lead construction manager at Cats Protection, said: “The delivery of this project by Pave Aways means so much to Cats Protection and we can’t wait to help many cats with our impressive new facilities. The Adoption Centre looks absolutely fantastic and we are very grateful to everyone involved.”
The centre draws its inspiration from local architecture featuring stone walls, a slate roof and expressed columns.
