Astoria cat rescue
Astoria Cat Rescue is a community-based, volunteer-run rescue dedicated to being a voice for cats who have none. We are committed to saving the lives of homeless, abandoned, neglected, and at-risk cats in Astoria and surrounding neighborhoods through rescue, foster care, adoption, Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR), daily colony feeding, and lifesaving medical care. With compassion, advocacy, and community support at the heart of our work, we strive to reduce suffering, control overpopulation, and give every cat the chance at a safe, healthy, and loving forever home while building a more humane future for cats in our community.
