Overview
Mission
To rescure homeless, abandoned, and at-risk cats, provide them with necessary vetrinary care and rehabilitation, and facilitate their adoption into loving, permanent homes.
What it reported doing in 2025
Operation of the "cat lounge" where individuals can spend time with the rescued and rehabilitated cats and potentially give a permanent home to the cats that are available for adoption
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Other-operating. 77% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% 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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
