CatRescue 901

CatRescue 901 Based in Sydney, Australia we rescue homeless cats & kittens from the streets and pounds. Thanks to a generous bequest, in 2020 we issued over 800 vouchers.

We have a network of approximately 30 dedicated foster carers, 20 veterinary practices and we rehome via our website, 4 PETstock stores and Jiji's Rescue Cat Cafe CatRescue 901 is a Sydney based no kill organisation and registered not-for-profit, committed to rescuing, caring for and rehoming abandoned cats and kittens. Founded in 2006, originally as Catrescue NSW, our mission is to help combat an

d highlight the horrific number of cats and kittens abandoned on our streets and destroyed in council pounds each year. CatRescue 901 not only cares for helpless animals, but proactively tackles the source of the issue by campaigning for legislative change, and providing low-cost desexing, microchipping and community education. We strongly believe that the terrible number of companion animals killed each year in NSW can be prevented through cultural and legislative change. CatRescue 901 is committed to rescuing, caring for and rehoming abandoned cats and kittens from the streets and sometimes council pounds. We do our best to help the most vulnerable cats, rescuing the very young, elderly, sick, injured, blind, disabled and the abused while relying on the goodwill of the community and dedication of volunteers to achieve this vital work. Our network consists of approximately 50 dedicated foster carers, a small team of coordinators and approximately 20 veterinary practices across Sydney. We rehome our cats via our website and we are very fortunate to also rehome our felines through 5 PETstock stores. Our cats have all vetwork completed prior to adoption and in the event our adopters circumstances change and they are no longer able to care for them, we will always accept our cats back. DESEXING IS ABSOLUTELY VITAL TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF ABANDONED AND UNWANTED FELINES. As funds allow, we issue desexing vouchers to promote responsible pet ownership and assist members of public to do their part in controlling the cat population problem. CatRescue 901 is a no kill organisation because every life is precious and every cat deserves a chance. This means that we are committed to doing the best for every cat in our care until their forever home can be found for them. Their paws are in our hands.

Have you often thought, what is my cat trying to say??

There are subtleties in how a cat communicates to you. If you can start to read them, you will have a better relationship with your cat and what they are needing.

Here's a handy pic for reference!

Our lovely little nugget (now named Thunder Jet or TJ for short) had his first visit to the vet today. He decided that he didn't want to p**p over the last couple of days and all the usual tricks weren't helping! So he had to get a little help!

After a bath he was much happier and wanting snuggles with his carer Tiarna.

Welcome aboard to Chewie and Wookie.

These two came from a group of cats that were in a hoarding situation. They have gunky eyes, and suspected flu, and of course ringworm so they will need some time to heal before being ready for adoption. Welcome aboard boys!

Two of our kittens, Felix and Eddie, had a little vacay at Lauras place before Christmas. They got to meet her resident cats and had the most amazing time exploring.

They learnt more about being a cat, how to play (with Bowie), as well as hide and seek (with Bellamy) and had some very important meetings with the current tuxedo cats. Needless to say, by the end of the four days, they were exhausted!

These boys will be ready to adopt soon!

With Christmas only a sleep away, just a little reminder about giving pets as gifts. All involved must be ok with having them for their life. To us, they are family, not a toy!

The CatRescue901 team will be taking a well earned break over Christmas and will only respond to urgent messages. We will be back on board in full on 2nd January. This doesn't mean we won't be assisting our carers and the cats we have on board, we will just be checking other messages when we can.

This little nugget came on board last night. We are less than a week old and hoping that they will thrive with 24 hour care.

Just a reminder to everyone, if you see a kitten alone like this, please leave and observe. Mum is usually not too far away and itโ€™s always best to keep them with mum as long as possible.

Our Story

CatRescue 901 is committed to rescuing, caring for and rehoming abandoned animals from the streets and pounds. We rely on the goodwill of the community and the dedication of volunteers to do this vital work. Formed in 2006 (originally as Catrescue NSW) to help combat and highlight the horrific number of abandoned cats and kittens destroyed in pounds, CatRescue 901 not only cares for homeless animals, but proactively tackles the source of the issue by campaigning for legislation change, greater representation for animals, low cost desexing and microchipping, and community education. We strongly believe that the terrible number of companion animals killed each year in NSW can be prevented through cultural and legislative change. The solution lies with all of us to be mindful of our actions and make compassionate, but simple, decisions such as desexing. We offer subsidised desexing vouchers year round - depending on available funds We do our best to rescue the most vulnerable cats and kittens; rescuing the very young, elderly, blind, disabled and the abused We have partnered with PETstock and rehome through their Artarmon, Balgowlah, Belrose, Broadway, Dural and Mona Vale stores. This enables us to take stray kittens and also friendly cats off the streets and find them safe homes. We desex these kittensโ€™ mums and find them homes if they are friendly. If they are not friendly these mums are desexed and returned into the care of the people feeding them. Every kitten and cat we rehome is vet checked, desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, worm and flea treated. We always accept back cats we have adopted at any time if their adopters are unable to care for them any more. CatRescue 901 does not operate a shelter. Instead we have a network of trained volunteer, foster carers who provide care for our cats in their homes. Most carers have one or two cats in their care and we have specialist carers who are trained to look after a mum with babies or litters of tiny bottle babies. All our carers are contractually bound to ensure our cats receive a very high standard of care. All our foster carers have unlimited access to our carer coordinators for ongoing support. Through our foster care program we have saved thousands of kittens and cats over the past 10 years. CatRescue 901 is a no kill organisation because every life is precious and every cat deserves a chance. This means that we are committed to doing the best for every cat in our care until their forever home can be found for them. CATRESCUE 901: Their paws are in our hands.
