SNAP Cats is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit feline rescue and sanctuary based in Santa Rosa, California (Sonoma County).Founded in 2013, the organization is uniquely dedicated exclusively to the rescue, care, and rehoming of special needs cats—including seniors, those with medical conditions (such as FIV+ and FeLV+), and cats deemed "unadoptable" by traditional shelters around the world.

Operating from a dedicated facility on Petaluma Hill Road in Santa Rosa (open by appointment) as well as a specialized campus in Sebastopol dedicated to behavioral therapy, SNAP Cats provides comprehensive, specialized veterinary care tailored to each feline's unique needs. While every resident feline is made available for adoption into a carefully screened permanent home, those who are not adopted are guaranteed a safe, peaceful sanctuary environment for the remainder of their natural lives. The organization is funded through direct public donations and standard adoption fees.

Animals over profits: Unlike typical corporate chains, we are completely against selling animals — always, now, and forever.

You choose where 25% of the earnings goes: We believe in full transparency — we calculate this 25% before paying for any executive salaries or business overhead. By skipping the fancy corporate costs, we ensure the money actually lands where it belongs: with the animals.
