Weatherford Whiskers

Weatherford Whiskers is a local cat rescue serving the Parker and Palo Pinto Counties. We rescue and foster high risk kittens to get them healthy, socialized, vaccinated, spayed/neutered and adopted to forever homes. We are primarily a foster based rescue group and are privileged to have such a large and experienced foster team. We currently have close to 200 cats in our care, many of whom arrived as bottle baby kittens with no where else to land.

We also run a TNR and Barn Cat program. We know that without effective TNR programs the ethical reduction of feral cat populations is not possible. We also acknowledge that there are at times cats who enter the shelters with a low chance of being rehabilitated into loving pet homes. With this in mind, we help rehome feral populations that cannot return to their point of capture into caring "working" homes as dedicated mousers. This provides new opportunities for this at-risk population in our community.

Our rescue also provides a "pet pantry" to supplement the needs of pet owners who have fallen on hard times, much like most food banks do for the human companion. This pantry is filled with community donations to help feed not only the cats of our community, but dogs as well.
