North Texas Cat Rescue (NTCR) is a 501(c)(3) organization committed to the humane and compassionate treatment of cats.
Our Mission:
To provide adoption and placement of homeless rescued cats/kittens in permanent homes.
To educate the public on the need to spay/neuter pets, on the prevention of animal cruelty and promote responsible pet ownership.
NTCR Programs
Foster care and adoption programs
NTCR takes in cats/kittens from Collin County Animal Shelter, rescues abandoned felines from other locations and cats surrendered by owners to the extent of our resources and of foster home availability. NTCR places the cats/kittens in foster care for re-socializing, regularly running adoption days at Petsmart in Allen and managing the permanent adoption center, Luv-A-Pet , inside Petsmart in Allen. We also post our adoptable cats on Petfinder.com, Adopt-a-pet.com. Facebook and on our website.
Working with Animal Shelter Services
NTCR works primarily with Collin CountyAnimal Shelter Services. We appreciate their hard work. To the extent of our resources, we do our best to take in our system cats/kittens that are injured , too young to survive on their own, pregnant/nursing mother cats etc… foster them, vet them and place them through our adoption program in loving permanent home.
Spay/neuter public education
We firmly believe in educating and assisting the public about the need to spay/neuter their pets. NTCR works with Texas Coalition for Animal Protection to assist those in need of finding a low cost clinic and a low cost source for spay/neuter. We hope, in the future, to help low-income and fixed income families have their pets fixed at no charge .
