Meet the Team

Carol Ritchie

Chair/ Trustee

I have always been an animal lover and have had cats all my life and been rescuing and rehoming cats for over 10 years, organised neutering campaigns and fundraising events.


Pauline Dean

Trustee

I am a trustee of Shetland Cat Rescue and live in North Roe. I have been a cat lover for many years and a volunteer with cat charities in the UK and Spain, doing fostering, fundraising, Trap Neuter & Return (TNR) etc. I live with my partner and cats – Woolly, Oso & Noah (who came back from Spain with us) + Millie & Lola (our two Shetland cats). I enjoy walking around the stunning Shetland scenery.


Barbara Anderson

Secretary/ Trustee

I am so pleased to be a part of this charity, and to be able to help cats in Shetland,  whatever their need might be.


Zara Wharton-Baum

TRUSTEE

After moving to Shetland, from Yorkshire in 2024, I was thrilled to get involved with Shetland Cat Rescue. I’ve always been passionate about animal welfare and have worked in wildlife rescue in Canada and in veterinary care in the UK. It’s great to be part of such a caring team, helping cats across the islands.
