Sparkle Cat Rescue

www.sparklecatrescue.org
Sparkle Cat Rescue's mission is to save the 'forgotten felines': abandoned, neglected, homeless.

Our mission is finding forever homes for felines rescued by a small circle of experienced volunteer cat rescuers and education about spay/neuter and care of felines, as well as TNR (trap-neuter-return) advice/assistance.

Incorporated 11/6/2014

Sparkle Cat Rescue is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) cat rescue that is 100% volunteer and foster home based

Sparkle Cat Rescue does not have an office location for visitors.

If you wish to meet any of our kitties, an approved adoption interest form must be submitted.

From time to time our supporters will send us a message requesting to meet kitties when they drop off donations.

To contact us via email, send to: sparklecatrescue@gmail.com

For donations or general correspondence, please contact us at:
Sparkle Cat Rescue, Inc.
2966 S Church Street, Suite 164
BURLINGTON, NC, 27215

Your donations are tax deductible!
We are 100% volunteer-based and rely on donations from the public to help the forgotten felines.

We cannot accept intakes from the public. We can offer you advice on resources in the community.

We are working with limited funds and time to help the forgotten felines and get them appropriate vet care.

With donations from the public, we are able to take care of their medical needs: spay/neuter, vaccinate them, ensure they test neg. for feline leukemia, and socialize and prepare them for their forever homes.

Each of these kitties stays in a foster home while they wait to be adopted.

Contact: sparklecatrescue@gmail.com for an adoption application. Visit our website to see all adoptable felines!

If you need assistance or have questions on cat care, please contact us. If we cannot help you, we will direct you to the proper resource.

If you would like to make a donation from our Amazon Wish List, please go here:www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/?ie=UTF8&cid=A1AMFHXU8XOFE5

We are also available to pick up local donations. Just contact us at sparklecatrescue@gmail.com!

If you'd like to make a monetary donation via check, please make payable to Sparkle Cat Rescue, Inc. and mail it to: 2966 S. Church St., Suite 164, Burlington NC 27215

Clay is a sociable and energetic boy who is hoping to have a forever home before the end of the year. He loves his people and is very snuggly. He also likes to zoom and wrestle, so he’ll do best in a home with another friendly cat to play with. Clay is good with friendly dogs. Apply to adopt on our website www.sparklecatrescue.org

Joey just moved to a foster home to be a playmate for Clay. It took him just minutes to start exploring and he was cuddled up on foster mom’s lap shortly after that. Joey is a bold and friendly boy! He’s about 7 months old and is one of the few kittens from the Seagrove colony still looking for a forever home. Apply to adopt on our website www.sparklecatrescue.org

Nebula is two years old and loves to play with toys! As you can see, she is very excited about her new Christmas tree toy. Nebula would also be excited if you adopted her for her furrever home. 💕 Nebula is a smaller cat and would do best in a quiet home with older (10+) children. When she’s not playing with toys, she loves to nap in her favorite cat bed on top of a cat tower. Apply to adopt at www.sparklecatrescue.org

Cinnamon is the most adventurous of “The Spice Girls”. She was the first to venture downstairs to meet the dog (she returned with a poofy tail). After her last vet visit, the vet commented “I couldn’t listen to her lungs because she was purring so loudly.” That’s sums her up nicely! Apply to adopt on our website www.sparklecatrescue.org

Delightfully sweet and oh so social brothers Solomon & Noah are waiting to meet their lifetime of love adopter(s). Two kitties are so much fun and keep each other company. It’s especially important for young kittens to have a companion. Visit our website to view adoptable kitties and Apply to adopt at www.sparklecatrescue.org

Cutie pie Hemera! She’s about 6 months old and hoping for a furever home by the holidays. She is shy at first. She’d be fine as the only cat or in a home with 1 cat. She’s fostered with dogs. If kids in the home it’s best if they are over 10 years old. Apply to adopt at www.sparklecatrescue.org

Wishing all of our friends a Happy Thanksgiving. Our new boy here is very thankful to be off the street, warm and dry and food in his tummy. We at Sparkle Cat Rescue are thankful for YOU for your support, and to our amazing fosters who open up their homes to help the forgotten felines we rescue, to our volunteers who are such an important part of our rescue day in and day out. Much love to you all. Xoxo
