Katydid Cat Rescue

About

Katydid Cat Rescue is a private collaboration whose mission is to remove friendly strays and socializable kittens from the streets that are caught during our TNR efforts. When it comes to managing the thousands of unfixed/stray/feral cats that roam and procreate throughout the Bay Area and beyond, TNR has been proven as the most effective and humane method. Every day, tens of thousands of cats and dogs are euthanized unnecessarily at shelters nationwide because of pet overpopulation. This travesty was caused by and continues because of irresponsible pet owners who neglected to spay/neuter their animals. Don't be one of them! ALL of our adoptable cats are rescued from neighborhoods throughout the Bay Area, but primarily along the peninsula. Cats are trapped, fixed, and returned, or fostered for adoption depending on their ability to be socialized. In particular, Katydid Cat Rescue specializes in socializing feral kittens. They come to us terrified of humans and some remain shy, but we do our best to find them appropriate homes and get them off the streets. While we wish we could solve this interminable problem once and for all, we are doing our part to reverse this sad state of affairs. YOU as a conscientious adopter, can complete the cycle by adopting a rescued or shelter animal, instead of a "bred" animal sold for profit by a pet store or breeder.
