Blind Cat Rescue & Sanctuary, Inc., about to celebrate its 20th anniversary, saves the lives of and provides a safe, healthy and loving forever home to cats who would be declared un-adoptable and immediately euthanized in high-kill animal control facilities because they are blind or test positive for FIV or feline leukemia. Without this sanctuary, they would have been euthanized. We continue to pursue our mission of educating the public about these cats and their ability to be loving family pets through our strong and ever-growing social media presence, 24-hour access cameras, regularly scheduled open houses, tours and volunteer opportunities. Using these tools, BCR’s global following continues to grow and its reach expand, demonstrating for people and other organizations about the true nature and abilities of blind, FIV- and feline leukemia-positive cats. Going beyond the shelter walls, BCR also works to alleviate the suffering and overpopulation of cats in feral populations through our ongoing spay and neuter program.

They are dedicated to rescuing and rehoming blind and visually impaired dogs, and educating the public about these special animals.
