The Hermitage No-Kill Cat Shelter

About this organization

We are AZ's 1st No-Kill, No-Cage cat shelter. We take in cats and kittens from the public but also make regular rescues from the local kill shelters. Mission To advocate for homeless cats in our community by: • Actively seeking permanent, loving homes for the cats in our care • Providing lifelong care to those cats who for behavioral or medical reasons are unable to be re-homed • Educating the public about responsible companion animal guardianship • Adhering to the principle of “no-kill” in that no cat in our care will ever be euthanized to make room for another. Nor, will any cat in our care ever be destroyed except in cases of terminal and painful illness or when compassion demands it because there is no reasonable alternative. Vision Our vision for the future is that: Every cat is spayed/neutered and is cared for in a loving home by a responsible guardian People treat animals as the sentient beings they are, ensuring that they are neither exploited nor harmed The Hermitage Cat Shelter is a world-class organization, providing sanctuary care for cats needing temporary or permanent shelter, and promoting the innate value of all animals
