Overview

Mission

We provide loving care and a life-long home for senior and special needs kitties. Flower feline sanctuary takes in feral cats who are not considered adoptable into a typical home, senior kitties who may have age related health or behavioral issues, and cats with chronic medical conditions that require extra care. We mainly work with rescue groups and animal control facilities who do not have the resources to house these kitties indefinitely. We usually do not adopt out our cats because the kitties who come to us have already experienced trauma and upheaval and deserve the permanent security a stable environment can offer.

What it reported doing in 2025

We will educate the public about best practices in caring for cats based on our experiences. We will treat each cat who stays with us as an individual and accommodate his or her preferences to the best of our abilities. We will provide our sanctuary residents with the most advanced medical care available while considering quality of life, and euthanize only when a cat is truly suffering and has no hope of recovery. We will maintain a clean, safe, calm and positive environment for cats in our care.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
