Cat-Tastrophe Charities has very limited space and funding. Because we are a foster-based rescue, we are not able to accept owner surrenders unless all medical and care expenses for the cat are fully covered at the time of surrender.

​

This policy is not a lack of compassion. It is a reality of rescue. Taking in surrendered cats without financial support would prevent us from continuing to help injured, abandoned, and medically fragile cats who have no one else.

​

Found Cats

If you have found a cat or kitten, please contact us before taking any action. Intake for found cats depends entirely on available foster space and current medical capacity.

​

We may be able to help in some situations, but we cannot guarantee intake.

​

Help and Referrals

Even when we cannot take a cat into rescue, we are always willing to help. We can provide guidance, referrals to shelters, rescues, or veterinary clinics, and help coordinate next steps whenever possible.

​

If you are dealing with a surrender or a found cat situation, please reach out to us directly so we can discuss available options.
