Feeding community cats leads to the cats being healthier and more fertile. This in turn leads to the birth of yet more homeless cats.

We encourage better understanding and appreciation of the role played by cats in the community, including for pest control.
We take the opportunity to explain the reality of rabies here in the Philippines where the disease is endemic. Ignorance of the facts leads many people to mistakenly believe that all puppies and kittens are born with this horrifying disease. This ignorance contributes to the cruelty and mistreatment of community cats here.

We believe in The Five Freedoms
We believe in The Five Freedoms
True welfare encompasses physical health and mental well-being. Every animal in our care deserves protection from unnecessary suffering.
True welfare encompasses physical health and mental well-being. Every animal in our care deserves protection from unnecessary suffering.
Freedom from Hunger and Thirst - by ready access to fresh water and a diet to maintain full health and vigour
Freedom from Discomfort - by providing an appropriate environment including shelter and a comfortable resting area
Freedom from Pain, Injury or Disease - by prevention or rapid diagnosis and treatment
Freedom to Express Normal Behaviour - by providing sufficient space, proper facilities and company of the animal's own kind
Freedom from Fear and Distress - by ensuring conditions and treatment which avoid mental suffering
Until one has loved an animal a part of one's soul remains unawakened.
