Whiskers Pet Rescue Inc
Our Mission
Whiskers Pet Rescue is a dedicated 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in Southbury, Connecticut, committed to the welfare of local cats and kittens. We work tirelessly to provide compassionate care and a second chance at life for those who have been abandoned, injured, abused, or neglected.
Why We Are Here
As a no-kill rescue, we believe that every cat matters and deserves a safe, loving, and permanent home. Because we operate without government funding, our mission is made possible entirely through the generosity of our community members, supporters, and the passion of our volunteers.
How We Help
Our organization relies on a dedicated team of volunteers and staff to rescue and care for hundreds of cats and kittens each year. We maintain a physical shelter in Southbury and work with fosters to ensure every animal receives the attention they need while awaiting their forever families. We are proud to be a community-focused group, constantly striving to place our rescued friends into the stable, loving environments they deserve.
Joining Our Family
We believe that adopting a cat is a transformative experience for both the pet and the person. Our adoption process is designed to ensure a successful, long-term match, which is why we guide every prospective adopter through a thoughtful application and review process. Once approved, we look forward to introducing you to our available cats so you can find your purr-fect companion.
Take the Next Step
