Rescue, Love, and Rehome Rescue, Love, and Rehome Rescue, Love, and Rehome


Every day, we receive heartbreaking calls and messages about neglected, abused, and abandoned animals throughout Schuylkill County. While we've been able to rescue, provide medical care, rehabilitate, and find loving forever homes for so many deserving cats, we know we can—and must—do more.
One of our dedicated members will be attending Humane Officer Training. Although the training is costly, it will allow Save the Strays of Schuylkill Cat Rescue to expand our mission beyond rescue.
As a certified Humane Officer, we won't just be able to save, treat, and rehome animals—we'll also be able to investigate cruelty and neglect cases, hold those responsible accountable, and help ensure animals receive the care and protection they deserve.
This is a huge milestone. It will establish the first Humane Officer based in Schuylkill County, helping fill a critical need for our community and the animals who depend on us.
We can't achieve this goal without your support.
Please consider making a donation to help cover the cost of training and certification. Every dollar brings us one step closer to protecting more animals and giving them the voice they deserve.
Together, we can rescue. Together, we can protect. Together, we can make lasting change for the animals of Schuylkill County.
Thank you for believing in our mission and standing beside us every step of the way.

Updated. 04/29/26 Public Service Announcement:
We hate making this post, and we don't want anyone to take it the wrong way. We are trying to help as many as we can, but we can not take in every cat and kitten. We have had so many messages lately starting help I've trapped a cat, or can you take this stray I took in? There is a cat ... 🐾
We have been over full since spring 2024, and until we lower our foster numbers, we can not take in every stray that comes our way.🏘 All of our foster homes are in family homes, and people are willing to share their home and time with our cats and kittens. Almost all of them also work part or full-time jobs.
We can help spay/neuter, and we do go case by case, in our service area, Schuylkill County. Please DO NOT trap a cat without an appointment. Please DO NOT take in a stray unless you are going to keep or foster them, vet them, and spay or nueter when due. We have lost foster homes, and we are in great need of additional foster homes (temporary and permanent), transport drivers for clinics, and for wellness checks to vet, volunteers to help at meet and greet events, and donation runners.🚘
Yes, we have cats getting homes, but just because 1 or 2 cats or kittens have left doesn't mean we have space. We are so thankful for each and every adoption.🐈⬛
On average, we have 25 kittens and 100 cats in fosters, any given day, and during kitten season,we have been full since sprinf of 2024. 🐈
We do not have a facility like other rescues and shelters . We rely on our generous volunteers to house our precious fur babies. We are a grassroots rescue that started almost 16 years ago with a gal that just wanted to help cats. 💜💜💜
And for being a small rescue, our reach is great. We will add some statistics on adoptions, tnrs, and such shortly.
