We’re Celebrating Our Volunteers!

About Us

Toronto Cat Rescue has been rescuing and rehoming cats and kittens for over 25 years.

A volunteer-powered charity, we save, treat, foster and re-home thousands of cats in critical need of help in Toronto, the GTA, and Kitchener-Waterloo.

We strive every day to provide high-quality treatment to all cats in our care. Every cat deserves a home. We’re here to help them get there.

Every month is dental health month for pets!

Just like humans, cats can develop dental issues such as tartar buildup, gum disease, and tooth decay. Regular dental care is crucial to prevent these problems and maintain their overall well-being.

By providing proper dental care, such as regular brushing, dental check-ups, and a healthy diet, cat owners can ensure their feline friends have strong, healthy teeth and gums.


We’re here every day of every year to rescue and find homes for abandoned, sick or injured cats.

And to do that, we rely on the donations of supporters like you!

Every cat in our care is given whatever they need to make sure they’re as healthy as possible before adoption.

Your gift will help cover spay or neuter surgeries, vaccinations, extensive dental work, blood work or emergency surgeries as necessary.

See all the ways you can donate to TCR here.

Join our next AMAZING Bowl-a-thon!

Another Bowl-a-thon down and how great it was!

Thanks to the efforts of all of our bowlers, staff and volunteers, we raised an incredible $27, 138!

That’s lots of cats and kittens saved. With requests for help coming daily this means we can meet the urgent need for help for hundreds of cats. Both we, and they, are so grateful!

Thank you to everyone who attended for the fun, the laughs, the friendship, and the support of Toronto Cat Rescue and all our furry friends.
