Welcome To Street Paws Recovery And Adoption Centre
We want to raise awareness about stray cats and help improve their conditions. We also want to show how we give stray cats a safe place to recover after surgery, illness, or trauma, and how we try to find them loving homes where they can spend the rest of their lives. Our objective is to educate people on animal care and the work we do with the city council in managing cat colonies, such as the TNR method.
Who We Are
We are a non-governmental, non-profit organisation dedicated to aiding street cats. Our primary goal is to provide them with necessary healthcare and providing them with somewhere safe and where they can receive ongoing medical care while they recover from illness, injury, or surgery.
We have also found that there are many cats that get abandoned on the streets that we put up for adoption if they are eligible candidates for home life. We urge people who want to give these animals a better life to adopt one of the cats under our care, donate to our cause, or spread the word about our organisation and mission.
Our Cats For Adoption
In our center, we have many cats that would make a perfect addition to any home. Take a look at their stories and learn about their diverse and fun personalities. Most of these cats have spent their lives with us since birth and are more than ready to find their perfect family.
Adoption Process
Here you will find the adoption requirements and the responsibilities that we and the adopters have to fulfil in order to take on one of the wonderful cats under our care.
How To Help
One of the most impactful aids are donations to pay for veterinary bills and food.
You can always apply with us to foster at home if you do not have the possibility to adopt but want to help. This gives the cats the freedom to experience a home environment.
Success Stories
Here you will be able to see touching stories about cats who, thanks to our care, have overcome illnesses, injuries, or difficult situations. Some of these cats may still be looking for someone to give them a safe and loving home. Be sure to check out their pages if any of their stories call to you!
