Community Alley Trappers
Our Mission
Community Alley Trappers (CAT) is non-profit charitable organization (NO. 74407 8684 RR001) dedicated to improving the lives of abused, abandoned, feral, stray, and injured cats in Ottawa and surrounding areas. We focus our efforts into helping un-owned stray and feral cats and kittens through Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR).
CAT takes in homeless cats and kittens, gives them the care they need to recover, and finds them loving homes. An extensive network of community volunteers and foster families helps the rescue carry out its mission and save more lives.
We believe each cat has inherent value and that humans and felines enrich each other’s lives. This bond builds compassionate communities with empathy for all living things.
Adoption Policy
When interested in adopting an “available feline” the first step is to fill out an online adoption application. You will find a list of available cats and our adoption application on our website.
*** The individual applying must be the potential owner of the cat and 22 years old or over.
*** We cannot accept applications on behalf of someone else.
*** CAT reserves the right to verify all information provided on the application form and deny any adoption requests.
An adoption volunteer/coordinator will discuss/call you to review your application and conduct an interview to ensure the best fit.
Unfortunately, we do not have the resources to call everyone.
If the cat is at a partner store in Ottawa, approved potential adopters will be able to meet & greet the feline there during business hours.
