Cat rescues are organizations or individuals dedicated to saving and caring for stray, abandoned, or abused cats. They provide shelter, medical care, and food to these animals, often working to find them permanent homes through adoption programs. Many cat rescues rely on volunteers and donations to operate and support their efforts. In addition to rescuing cats, these organizations often promote responsible pet ownership and spay/neuter programs to help control the cat population. They may also educate the public about the importance of caring for cats and the benefits of adopting from shelters rather than purchasing from breeders or pet stores.
