The Cat Connection

Cat rescue in Waltham, MA

We are an all-volunteer, nonprofit cat rescue in the greater Waltham, MA area. We rescue stray and abandoned cats and find them loving homes. We also do TNR to work to minimize the homeless cat population. We don't yet have a shelter, so all our cats are in foster care.
