Ottawa Stray Cat Rescue
|
Our Mission
Get adoptable stray cats off the streets and into homes
Manage stray cat colonies
The stray cat problem in Ottawa is significant and twofold: feral cat colonies exist all over the city and are not managed in part because there are no public-accessible spay/neuter-and-release programs. These colonies grow ever larger when pet cats are not neutered or spayed, and are abandoned, lost, or allowed to be outside to breed with ferals and other strays.
About OSCatR
OSCatR is a registered Canadian Charity (No. 83641 4573 RR0001), no-kill volunteer-run cat rescue based in Ottawa, Ontario, established in 2011. OSCatR does not have a shelter or central facility, and all cats are in loving foster homes allowing the cats more freedom to be cats. This helps maximize the use of funds and donations.
We take in only stray, abandoned and feral cats. OSCatR is a closed admission rescue. If you know of a stray or feral cat in need of help, please fill out the Intake or TNR form and we will do our best to bring the cat in as soon as possible.
Our Cats for Adoption
At any given time, OSCatR has 50-100 cats available for adoption. All these cats are in foster homes and have been assessed for temperament and health, and all see a vet as soon as possible to be vaccinated and spayed/neutered. We take care to ensure that homes and cats are well-suited to each other.
