Outpawed

For the care and management of community, stray and abandoned cats in the lower North Island.

Outpawed is a NZ registered charity dedicated to the care and management of stray, abandoned and community cats in the lower North Island (Wellington, Kapiti & Manawatu)

We provide shelter for wild cats/kittens and aim to desex, socialise, vaccinate, microchip and find homes for as many of these cats as possible. We are also involved in TNR for cats that cannot be integrated into a household envi

ronment. Where TNR is necessary, cats are released into managed colonies where they are fed and monitored. We aim to work with local government and other animal welfare organisations to obtain the best outcome possible for the stray/community cat population. Our goal is to reduce this population over time through desexing and adoption.

Meet the dynamic duo or Betty-boop and Rooney.
We're looking for a very special home for this love match. Betty Boops is a sweet independent girl who just adores her big teddy bear Rooney. They just 'get' one another. Betty was a past mumma and Rooney an injured stray.
They're looking for a very quiet home. While Rooney is a smooch Betty is still shy and reserved. She's comfortable around people but prefers minimal touch. Their best home is one where their person (people) is okay with that and will allow her to progress in her own time.
Berry-boop and Rooney are available to visit in Palmerston North. If you'd like to meet this glorious pair complete a pre-adoption application here https://www.outpawed.org.nz/adoption-application

Meet Miguel Junior - he's frankly, a bit of a dude.
He's a 2(ish) year old boy who, when comfortable, will come sit beside you, lie on the end of the bed and wait for belly scritches. He gets on well with other cats but is untested with dogs.
He's looking for a forever home where he can couch surf endlessly and chill. He's available to visit in Petone. If you'd like to meet him fill out our pre-adoption application here https://www.outpawed.org.nz/adoption-application

This lovely young mumma was clearly a housecat, and we're certain her babies were house born. They're a delightful and very well mannered wee trio who we think may have been abandoned recently in an area where we were already working with a group of strays.
They've almost finished isolation and will be ready to go to foster homes this coming weekend, but first they need names!
You can find them here on our sponsorship page https://www.outpawed.org.nz/sponsorships

Massive thank you to the Johnsonville fire brigade who collected a huge amount of donations for a number of charities. We were the lucky recipient of some cat food, toys, litter and blankets. This is much appreciated for the fur babies in our care, even Frank was trying to get in on the action!
