Watching Over Whiskers

Cat rescue in Springfield, MO

WOW was established in 2015 and supports routine vetting to help place kitties in loving homes, as well as Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) assistance and emergency vet assistance for kitties on a case by case basis.

To date, WOW has been able to TNR, vet and/or place well over 2800+ kitties and we couldn’t have done it without YOU! The kindness and compassion YOU have shown has made all the difference and given the amazing WOW volunteers the ability to help defenseless felines who have no voice but our own.
