About PawCare Cat Rescue

Dedicated to feline welfare in Rahuri, Maharashtra since 2018

6+ Years Of Compassionate Care

Compassionate Care for Every Whisker in Rahuri

PawCare Cat Rescue was founded in Rahuri, Maharashtra with a simple yet profound mission: to protect, heal, and rehome cats that have been abandoned, injured, or neglected. What began as a small group of passionate animal lovers has grown into one of the region's most trusted cat welfare organizations, having rescued over 1,200 cats to date.

Our dedicated team operates from our rescue center in the heart of Rahuri, providing emergency response services, comprehensive medical treatment, and long-term rehabilitation for felines of all ages and conditions. We believe that every cat, regardless of its background, deserves a life free from suffering and filled with love.

Beyond rescue operations, we actively run community education programs in schools and neighborhoods across Rahuri and nearby villages, teaching responsible pet ownership, the importance of sterilization, and how to coexist peacefully with stray animals. Our spay and neuter initiatives have successfully sterilized over 800 cats, significantly reducing the stray population humanely.

We collaborate closely with local veterinary clinics, government bodies, and fellow animal welfare organizations in Maharashtra to create a comprehensive network of support for our feline friends. Our foster program places cats in temporary loving homes while they await permanent adoption, ensuring each animal receives individual attention and socialization.

Looking ahead, PawCare Cat Rescue aims to establish a state-of-the-art feline wellness center in Rahuri, complete with surgical facilities, a dedicated kitten nursery, and community training spaces. We invite you to join us in this journey of compassion and service—whether through adoption, volunteering, or simply spreading awareness.
