S.A.I.N.T. Rescue (Saving Animals in Need Today)

S.A.I.N.T. Rescue (Saving Animals in Need Today) SAINT is a cat only rescue located in Cedar Rapids IA. End suffering of cats by reducing unwanted litters through TNR, spay/neuter and adoption services.

SAINT Rescue has been in existence for over 20 years, rescuing and adopting out cats and kittens. All veterinary and medical expenses were funded primarily by our founder for the first 15 years of our existence. SAINTs was formally incorporated and obtained its 501C(3) status in 2010. Donations are necessary and greatly appreciated to help us continue to do our work. All donations are tax deductib

Today's spotlight is going to this huge love, Ollie! Ollie is as loving as he is big. He loves pets and cuddles. He is about 2 years old. Ollie has only been with us a few weeks, but he's already stolen our hearts. He came to us after being found outside in Benton county. Ollie gets along well with other cats and is pretty calm and easy going. If you'd like to meet this large gentleman please check our available appointments!

A kitten can reach sexual maturity as early as 4.5 months of age! Our local shelters and rescues are almost always at capacity. PLEASE don't let pets or community cats breed. Make spay and neuter a high priority. Together we can stop pet overpopulation.

Our Saturday morning spotlight is part of the dark side. Meet Vader. This guy will definitely use the force on your heart, because you will fall in love when you meet him! Vader is a sweet and vocal guy. He has been at the shelter for just over a month. He is about 2 years old, but he has an old soul. Vader is a low key guy that just wants pets and love. He would do best as an only cat in a quiet home, but he can tolerate other cats around him as long as they are calm. Will this Vader be your chosen one?
If you'd like to come meet our Jedi master please check out available appointment times.

If he is not selected by the time our cat cafe on February 8th at the downtown library he may just be making an appearance.

Today's spotlight is going to this young pair, Opal and Ophenia. These girls were found out in Marion in a feral community. The lady that feeds them was able to tame these gals down enough to bring them in to find a forever home. These cats are under a year old. They can still be a little timid, but overall they are doing great! If you'd like to come meet them please check out our appointment times.

Stop by tomorrow and meet some of our kittens. We will be open from 11 to 2. No appointment is required. We have a few kittens ready to be adopted, but most still need a few more weeks before they will be old and/or big enough. #TrapNeuterReturnTNR #SpayNeuterCommunityCats #SpayNeuterYourPet

Pixie giving Cookie a bath. They are not related & Pixie has never been pregnant but definitely has a mothering instinct. Pixie loves the kittens, particularly the sassy ones.

Peeta is back in the Adoption Center after having a leg amputated. He was found in the middle of 16th Ave SW and picked up before it was too late. The break was on the growth plate, so repairing was not an option. He will be heading to foster care soon. He'll be ready for adoption in about 6 weeks.

These 4 very active girls are available for adoption. They are ~14 weeks old and ready to go! If you are interested in meeting them, please go to our page or website and click the BookNow button to schedule an appointment. These are the only kittens we have right now that are ready to be adopted. Sadly, there will be dozens more available starting in a few weeks. #TrapNeuterReturnTNR #SpayNeuterCommunityCats #SpayNeuterYourPet

Spicy kittens!! Oreo, Cookie & Cream just came in today after being found in a local mobile home park. They will be available for adoption in about 6 weeks and after they graduating from our Spicy Kitty Academy. #TrapNeuterReturnTNR #SpayNeuterCommunityCats #SpayNeuterYourPet

This was our ride back from Iowa Humane Alliance this morning. They spayed/neutered eight kittens for us yesterday. Four are already adopted. Come in Saturday for our Kitten Shower and meet the ones that are still available for adoption. Bonus...there will be cake!!! 🍰

Jake wants to play with the kittens but their mama says no. She is still very protective of them. We will start accepting applications on these kittens this weekend but they won't be ready to go home until the 1st full weekend of May. 2 orange/white boys & 3 torbie girls. Kittens need to go in pairs at this age.

Our little one eyed girl, Rye, is ready to take on anyone. She's plays hard.
