Cats with health conditions are often overlooked: it is harder for them to find a home, and their diagnoses are surrounded by myths and fears. We, the Cats & Friends volunteers, want to change this injustice because we know that these cats, like all others, simply want to be loved — and they need our help.

At our events, guardians share the cats’ stories, veterinarians explain complex topics in clear language, and guests discover different ways to help. The goal: more attention, support and opportunities for cats with special health needs.

We want every guest to leave our gatherings with a warm feeling: “Today, I became part of something good.”
