Cat Adoption Team
Cat Adoption Team (CAT) is the Pacific Northwest’s largest non-profit, feline-only animal shelter. Our mission is to save the lives of homeless cats and to work with our community to provide feline expertise and quality programs and services for people and cats. Currently we achieve this mission by: • Providing shelter, medical care, evaluation, and treatment to cats who have become homeless • Finding homes for the cats and kittens in our care • Providing people who care for cats with resources, education, and support to help keep human-animal bonds strong and prevent cats from becoming homeless • Offering low-cost spay/ neuter services to cat owners in need to prevent the births of unwanted litters • Working closely with other animal organizations to implement projects and programs that positively impact cats at a community and regional level More than 58,000 cats and kittens have found loving new homes through the Cat Adoption Team since our founding in 1998. Those currently awaiting adoption receive daily care from a trained, dedicated group of staff and volunteers. CAT works closely with animal welfare organizations, animal control agencies, veterinary offices, and other shelters to care for and rehome cats or kittens who may otherwise face euthanasia. We are dedicated to finding the right home for every feline we take in. As a nonprofit organization, we rely entirely on charitable contributions and service fees.
