About
Our Impact
At Rescue Me, we are dedicated to saving the lives of cats and kittens in need through rescue, foster care, adoption, and community advocacy. As a full-circle rescue, we ensure that every cat we encounter is given the chance for a better life—whether through adoption or Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) to reduce population growth and improve colony health.
Rescue Me operates entirely through volunteer efforts, with compassionate individuals working tirelessly to bring stray and at-risk cats into our care. Most of our rescues begin with a community member finding a cat in need and reaching out for help. Once in our program, each cat receives a thorough medical exam to assess health and temperament, along with vaccinations and deworming treatments.
For adoptable cats and kittens, our network of more than 50 foster families provides loving homes where they can heal, grow, and prepare for their forever families. These fosters ensure each cat gets proper nutrition, medical care, and socialization, helping them build confidence and adapt to new environments. Thanks to their dedication, we can match every cat with the perfect home.
Cats who are deemed feral and not suited for adoption receive the same compassionate care through our Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program. They are vaccinated, treated for parasites, and spayed or neutered before returning to their colony locations, helping to prevent disease and control population growth.
