About Us – 4 Paws Rescue Foundation

About Us

4 Paws Rescue Foundation is dedicated to helping the cats and kittens trying to survive on the streets.  Each year, we trap, neuter and return (TNR) several hundred cats.  We take in the adoptable kittens and cats, get all of their vetting done and put them into foster care until they find their furever homes.

Because we do not operate out of a shelter or have a facility in which to house our adoptable cats and kittens, we rely heavily on fosters who open their hearts and their homes, offering lots of love and care until they find their furever homes.  Once the foster families start working with kittens that have never been handled and tame them down, they blossom and flourish which makes them absolute sweethearts and able to be adopted out!

We show at Petco and we have heard time and time again how sweet and beautiful our kittens and cats are!  That is because lots of love, time and patience is given to each kitty.

Check out our Happy Tails and see all of our cats and kittens that have been adopted – each and every one of those cats and kittens were rescued from the streets and are now in loving, furever homes!

None of these ferals have
been spayed or neutered

Street cats endure hunger, predators, exposure to the elements, and lack of medical care.  Many are abandoned and left to fend for themselves without the warmth of a loving home.

Mama cats will protect their kittens
at any cost and will heartbreakingly
lure a coyote away from the nest
and be killed to protect her kittens

When it rains, cats and kittens
are wet and cold instead of being
in a warm loving home

When mamas go looking for food, they are often killed by cars or coyotes. If they do not come back, the kittens will start wandering out and can get snatched by an owl, hawk or coyote

Please spay and neuter!

It's brutal trying to survive on the streets and eating whatever they can find in dumpsters.  Unfortunately, some cats and kittens get stuck in dumpsters and can't get out unless someone hears their cries.

Saving one cat or kitten
might not change the world
but it changes the world for
that one cat or kitten!
