A Safe Space To Rescue/Rehome/Adopt Cats/Kittens Of All Kinds - Tame Or Feral - No Cat Refused - No Cat Forgotten - No Cat Left Behind. ~Our Mission Statement~
"Helping pets in need through sheltering, adoption, education, veterinary care and community outreach." A little bit about us....
We are a cat & kitten rescue based out of London/Ontario, and our dedicated rescuers and fosters have made it
their life's mission to do our very best to provide care, comfort and compassion to cats & kittens in need. We aim to be a more community based rescue operation, and as such we work with the community to rescue and help as many cats & kittens as we possibly can, while addressing the concerning issue of feline overpopulation. We offer services like free advice and/or education on a variety of pet & feline needs/issues, as well as trying to help those who might need to access various services like low income spay/neuter programs, local pet food banks, etc...
Our rescuers and fosters have many years of experience in the field of animal rescue, and our knowledge and strengths combined allow us to do more for the animals and the community together, than we ever could separately. We have rescuers/fosters with varying degrees of expertise and fields of interest. One was a vet tech, another volunteered with "Animalert" when they were younger as well as other animal recue groups, and yet another grew up on a farm working with animals all their life, etc....
Most have volunteered at various other local and non-local rescues and shelters. We believe that together and with the help of the community, we can help save many more cats & kittens. Whether it be through live-trapping of feral cats & kittens. Rehabilitation of feral or untamed kittens, to our barn-cat program, where we help farmers who donate to us litters of unplanned kittens get their barn-cats vetted/spayed/neutered/etc... at our expense. Or even offering to have a cat vetted (spayed/neutered/vaccinated/etc...), yet again at our expense, for anyone wanting to donate or rehome a litter of kittens with us. We have also reunited many a pet owner with their lost pet/cat, as we have acquired a microchip scanner, to scan for a microchip each full grown cat that we catch. This will help to ensure we can successfully reunite it with it's owner, if it turns out to be someone's beloved lost pet, as well as scouring every local "lost & found" pet pages, etc....
Animal rescue is a calling which we cannot ignore. We see the need daily, and feel it in our hearts & souls. All adoption fees are considered donations to the rescue, they are put right back into the rescue and are used to care for and cover the vetting for more kittens needing to be spayed/neutered/vaccinated/etc....
They are also used to cover much needed medications and supplies such as, but not limited to, antibiotics, various medications, flea treatments, de-wormer treatments, food, litter, etc....
In 2021 we saw a growing need locally for a pet food bank, so with the gracious and generous help of a local dog rescue operation called " S.C.A.A.R " rescue, we started a pet food bank group on FB here. We help elderly, disabled, and low-income folks with pet food and pet supplies during hard times. We don't want to see anyone have to lose or rehome their pet, simply because they need a little help here and there with pet food and/or supplies. So we provide a number of different pet foods such as dog food/treats, cat food/treats, at times bunny and/or rodent pet food, various supplies like collars, leashes, harnesses, hamster/rodent cages and accessories, etc....
We also deliver 3 nights per week, to those who are not able to pick-up for whatever reason, being it being disabled, or elderly, etc....
One thing that we do not get nearly enough of in donations for the folks who need it though, is kitty-litter and rabbit/bunny food/supplies. We personally donate as much kitty-litter as we possibly can, but we are not able to provide the necessary amount of kitty-litter for the folks who so very much need it for their cats/kittens. So we are hoping that somewhere out here, are some caring people who might find it in their hearts to help out the pet food bank with kitty-litter donations for the folks in the group. We also hold regular human food drives, which we donate the food collected to local food banks, homeless shelters, homeless encampments, etc....
We try as much as is humanly possible to create and effect a positive change, not only in our community, but in the world around us. We believe in leading by example and we believe that something does not have to affect us personally for it to be important, and for us to take action in helping out as much as we can. If you or someone you know is in need of a little pet food help, please feel free to join and/or direct folks who need a little help to the group.
