We’re a registered charity tackling the community cat crisis in Ottawa and surrounding areas through TNR, advocacy, and accessible spay/neuter.

Educating our neighbours, reducing suffering, and saving lives, one paw at a time. Speak up, save a life. We are 2 women dedicated to helping cats and helping others help cats. We have teamed together to empower others through education and advocacy. We don’t claim to have all the answers or even always have the right answers. We are here to have a conversation, share and learn ourselves. Our goal is to share our knowledge and information with likeminded individuals who are also dedicated to helping cats and other animals. Although our focus is with cats we feel that all animals deserve a voice. As individuals we can make a small difference but as a community, we can create a larger impact. Sandi Lawson- Founded and operates Adopt Me Cat Rescue. Also fosters wildlife when possible. Passionate about all animals and believes they are equally deserving of love, respect and compassion. Jackie Gauthier- Founder and owner of Jackie to the rescue Passionate about rescuing always ready to go when the call comes in whether it be for a cat or a dog all the way down to a chipmunk or a bird I will be there. Speaking up for those with no voice to speak up for themselves.

Update on Earl Grey.

He is currently on antibiotics for his upper respiratory, antibiotics for his ear infection, pain medicine, eye drops, and monitoring other concerning symptoms. However, he’s eating well and today started purring. ❤️ This is not a feral cat, he showed interest in the dog I’m caring for and is super gentle. This is very likely a dumped cat.

Did you know that a great number of dumped don’t survive 1 year outside? He’s a true survivor and was seen for 2 years now, but progressively declining. He would not have survived a 3rd winter that is 100% guaranteed. Hopefully he was rescued in time to have a better future. He is definitely not out of the woods yet. If you want to help us with his medical needs that would be much appreciated.

Earl Grey came to us as a TNR. It was very clear to me, however that he was suffering tremendously. Today, we are at Nepean Animal Hospital and finding about all his health concerns, they are quite severe. We’re not sure of his outcome yet. He’s in bad shape. Saving his life will be costly. Without your support from our events, Christmas sale, and calendar sales, how are we supposed to help cats like Earl Grey? Please help us help them.

We need your help!

We at Speak Up For Paws are currently helping a small colony with several kittens and a few mom cats. We’re desperately looking for kitten food to feed all these babies. I will update our Wishlist to add more kitten food and if you’d like to help support getting mom’s spayed donations would be greatly appreciated.
