Dr. Eve Davies is the Co-Founder and Communications Director of ProtectaPet Ltd, a King’s Award-winning company dedicated to ensuring cats’ safety outdoors while giving their owners peace of mind. The inspiration for ProtectaPet arose from a deeply personal tragedy: the loss of Lola, a cherished family cat, in a road traffic accident. Driven to prevent similar heartbreak for others, Eve and her partner, Simon, founded ProtectaPet in 2014.
From its inception, ProtectaPet joined the Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce, and in 2015, it became a finalist in five categories in the inaugural Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce Awards. Eve credits the support of Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce as instrumental in the company’s early success and she’s keen to support other local businesses to access the same support.
Since then, Eve and Simon have grown ProtectaPet into an internationally recognised leader in cat fencing solutions. Their strategic approach—reinvesting profits into team development, fostering an exemplary company culture, and innovating cutting-edge designs—has augmented ProtectaPet’s reputation as a pioneer in the field.
In 2023, the company was honored with the King’s Award for Innovation, a prestigious recognition of its groundbreaking designs and significant impact on the wellbeing of cats and owners. ProtectaPet’s extensive product line features over fifty modular cat fencing components, protected by eight patents with more in progress.
Operating from three UK depots and supported by a European hub in Rotterdam, ProtectaPet serves customers across the continent. With the success of its French and Dutch websites, the company is poised to become a global household name, offering expertly designed solutions to keep cats safe outdoors.
Beyond her role at ProtectaPet, Eve is a dedicated advocate for UK businesses. She serves as an Export Champion for the Department of Business and Trade and as Deputy President of the Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce, contributing to the region’s representation on the global stage.
