About Us

The RAPS Cat Sanctuary was built in order to rescue and protect homeless and abandoned cats and kittens. It is now one of the largest cat sanctuaries in North America. The Sanctuary provides a safe permanent home to hundreds of feral, abandoned and surrendered cats. Our tame and feral felines cohabitate peacefully and contentedly. It is maintained by about 200 dedicated volunteers who continually create a loving, clean, comfortable and safe environment for our cats.

Our cats’ health is monitored by a specialized team of veterinarians and animal care workers who handle and medicate both tame and feral cats. All the cats are treated at the RAPS Animal Hospital, one of the largest not-for-profit animal hospitals in Canada. RAPS believes that every life is a valuable life and spares no expense in ensuring that the cats receive high-quality care, including shelter, throughout their lifetimes.
