Cat Adoption Team

Founded in May 1998, the Cat Adoption Team (CAT) is the Pacific Northwest's largest nonprofit, adoption-guarantee cat-only shelter. Our mission is to save the lives of homeless, unwanted, sick, and injured cats and to work with our community to provide feline expertise and quality programs and services for people and cats. CAT takes in and finds homes for an average of over 3,000 cats and kittens each year; provides spay/neuter surgeries for approximately 1,500 cats annually(including low-cost surgery for publicly owned cats and all CAT cats and kittens prior to adoption); and provides information and resources to cat owners throughout the Portland Metro region and beyond. In 2019, CAT found a home for its 50,000th cat! CAT is a founding partner of the Animal Shelter Alliance of Portland (ASAP); working together more than a decade, ASAP partners have increased feline lifesaving in the Portland metro area to over 95% - making our community one of the safest for homeless pets!
