Have you found a stray kitty on the streets?
Need to rehome your loving companion?
Don’t know what to do if your kitty is acting strangely?
While Karma Cat Rescue Society will do our best to help, we are not veterinarians, animal behaviorists, or able to guarantee assistance in any particular case.
We’re just a group of local animal-loving volunteers doing our best to make a difference in our neighborhood. Our ability to help depends on many changing circumstances at any given time, such as volunteer availability, space, equipment availability, and funding.
We encourage you to fill out the request forms, but please continue to look for other avenues for help, such as:
Cat Surrender
Karma Cat Rescue Society is dedicated to saving as many animals as possible and often operates at full capacity to maximize the lives we can help. While we strive to assist in as many situations as our resources allow, we can’t guarantee that every surrender request will result in immediate intake. However, there are steps you can take to help streamline the process:
🐾 What You Can Do:
1. Gather veterinary records, including medical history, spay/neuter status, and vaccination history for each animal.
2. Provide test results showing the FIV/FeLV status.
3. Email as much information as possible to info@karmacat.org
Once this information is received, we’ll add your request to our waiting list. Our space is currently very limited, so we’ll reach out to you only if a spot becomes available. If you’re able to temporarily foster the animal, please include that in your request – it makes a big difference!
Important Details:
- A surrender fee of up to $250 helps cover the cost of the animal’s care. If the animal is already spayed/neutered, tested, and up-to-date on vaccinations, this fee may be reduced.
- If you’re considering alternatives, we recommend exploring the PetFinder Shelter and Rescue Search for other organizations.
- If the cat came from a shelter or rescue (other than KCRS), reach out to them first, as most rescues are committed to taking their animals back.
- For outdoor cats that aren’t friendly, please consider TNR (trap-neuter-return) to help them safely stay in their environment. If they are friendly and found in Milltown, our friends at Woodbridge Animal Shelter may be able to help.
If there’s a way we could assist you in keeping your cat – whether it’s a behavioral or financial challenge – please let us know. We’re here to help explore solutions wherever possible. Email us at intake@karmacat.org. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to make space and provide care for as many animals as we can.
TNR
TNR stands for Trap-Neuter-Return. Through TNR, we offer population control and humane help to feral cat colonies in the area, and keep kitties out of shelters.
