Who We Are
Early 1998 a group of women bonded together with a common mission to rescue purebred cats from distressed situations and to place them in loving, permanent homes. Why single out purebred cats? Because, many well known groups existed for domestic cats, but none specifically for the purebred feline. Thus, a niche was filled and Backdoor Friends Purebred Cat Rescue was officially organized as a 501-C nonprofit organization. Since then, our group has expanded to Five permanent board members and a host of volunteers. We have processed over 1,000 cats since our first gathering as a rescue organization. All of these cats were tested for the FIV/FELV virus, vaccinated, spay/neutered (if age permitted) and ultimately placed into loving homes. Our goal is to continue our mission by selectively matching our cats personality with perspective adoptive families.
