Welcome to Akron Rescue Cats


– a sanctuary where every cat, regardless of their history, gets a chance at a better life! Our mission is simple: to provide a safe, loving environment for cats that others have overlooked, abandoned, or deemed too difficult to save. We exist to help the cats that no one else will – those that need a second chance, a place to heal, and the opportunity to live a full, happy life.



Our Story


Akron Rescue Cats was founded by a passionate group of cat lovers with a shared vision: to rescue and rehabilitate cats that have been given up on by society. We specialize in helping the most vulnerable feline cases – from senior cats and those with special needs to feral and fearful cats who have been neglected or mistreated. Many of the cats we care for have faced immense hardships, leaving them with physical or emotional scars. At Akron Rescue Cats, we offer them a chance to heal, grow, and find a home where they are loved and valued.


What We Do


At Akron Rescue Cats, our approach is built on patience, understanding, and compassion. Every cat that comes to us is treated with the care and respect they deserve:

  • Veterinary Care: We provide all necessary medical attention, including health check-ups, vaccinations, spaying/neutering, and ongoing treatments for any conditions they may have.
  • Behavioral Support: Our expert team works closely with fearful, stressed, or difficult-to-handle cats, providing them with the rehabilitation they need to trust people and adapt to a loving environment.
  • Safe Environment: Our sanctuary offers a calm, secure space where each cat can roam freely, explore, and relax. We ensure they have a comfortable home until they are ready for their next chapter.
  • Adoption or Sanctuary: While many of our cats are adoptable, some may require long-term care due to age, health, or behavioral challenges. For these cats, we offer a sanctuary where they can live out their lives in peace and comfort.

Why We Do It


At Akron Rescue Cats, we believe every cat, no matter how challenging, deserves a chance at a better life. We are committed to breaking the cycle of abandonment and neglect by providing these special cats with the love, care, and attention they need. Our work isn’t just about rescuing them from difficult situations – it’s about offering them the opportunity to thrive, heal, and live with dignity.


Our Values

  • Compassion: Every cat, regardless of their history, is treated with love and kindness.
  • Commitment: We are dedicated to the most vulnerable cats, offering them patience, understanding, and time to heal.
  • Transparency: We believe in keeping our supporters, donors, and adopters informed about the work we do and the needs of the cats we rescue.
