Our story…
*~ Your run or walk can save a cat's life -
please join Team ACR! ~*
This is Annex Cat Rescue's largest fundraiser of the year, and every team member is essential, helping us share our rescue work with a new audience of potential cat lovers and supporters. You don't need to be a 'racer' - just a cat lover willing to run or walk 5km or more to help street cats in need. <3
Who are we?
Annex Cat Rescue is dedicated to reducing the suffering of Toronto's street cats, eliminating cat homelessness, and creating the safe & loving indoor second chances that formerly homeless street cats deserve.
We care for cats and kittens in a variety of ways, such us:
- daily feeding and monitoring of cats in managed feral cat colonies
- spaying/neutering, vaccinating, and providing medical & dental care to both colony cats being returned to their outdoor homes and cats going into our foster program for an indoor second chance
- socializing, fostering, and adopting out formerly homeless street cats & kittens
ACR remains 100% volunteer-run, and nearly 90% of our donations go directly to medical care for our rescued cats, in partnership with generous veterinarians who provide donated and discounted care.
Annex Cat Rescue receives no city or government funding, and relies exclusively on donations. Our adoption fees only cover a small fraction of the medical expenses for our cats, so we depend on fundraisers like this to continue helping as many street cats as possible. Our work supporting homeless cats in our community cannot happen without our hundreds of dedicated volunteers, and financial donations from those who support our work.
Please join our team, share our fundraising link, or make a donation yourself - everything helps!
Description
Until that time, we care for cats and kittens in a variety of ways including (but not limited to) daily feeding and colony management, medical/dental care, socializing, fostering, adopting or, in the case of feral cats, spaying/neutering and returning (TNR). ACR remains 100% volunteer-run with nearly 90% of monies raised helping cats in partnership with veterinarians who provide services at reduced rates.
Annex Cat Rescue relies exclusively on donations. The year 2022 marked our 25th anniversary; an amazing accomplishment for a charity that began with neighbours gathering to help homeless cats. This success is due to many committed volunteers and the generosity of our supporters. We continue to face extraordinary challenges including (but not limited to) cats requiring urgent medical and dental care as well as spay/neuter and vaccinations. Our work supporting homeless cats in our community cannot happen without ongoing support.
Please consider donating. Any amount helps!
