Frequently Asked Questions
Are you a registered charity?
No — we're a volunteer group that operates as a not-for-profit. Donations are not tax-deductible. Every dollar goes directly to cat care, with zero admin fees.
How quickly do you respond to cat reports?
We aim to have a volunteer check on the cat within 48 hours of a report. Urgent cases (injured cats) are prioritised. For life-threatening emergencies, please also call the SPCA.
Can I adopt a feral cat?
Most feral cats aren't suitable as pets — they're wild animals. However, some younger or semi-feral cats can be socialised. Contact us and we can advise based on the specific cat.
Do you cover the Hutt Valley / Porirua?
We're currently focused on Wellington City. For the Hutt Valley, we'd recommend contacting Cats Protection League (Wellington Branch) or the SPCA.
