Overview
Mission
To save as many lives as possible. While we mostly see cats, we won't turn down other animals in need. We take on the hard cases that others won't - the starving, the beaten, the broken down. We travel to dangerous locations to take animals out of conditions only thought of in nightmares. We spend hours at a time waiting to trap just a single cat in unsafe conditions for both ourselves and the animals... all to make sure they get the best life possible.
What it reported doing in 2025
Conducted direct animal rescue operations focused on saving abused, neglected, and abandoned animals, primarily cats, from dangerous and life-threatening environments. Activities included trapping animals in unsafe conditions, providing emergency care, rehabilitation, and placement into safe homes. The organization prioritized high-risk cases, including severely injured, starving, and abused animals, and worked to improve animal welfare through hands-on intervention and recovery efforts
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
