Welcome to CatNap

Catnap is a 100% volunteer-run, registered nonprofit with charity status in Nanaimo, BC, dedicated to rescuing and caring for 400-500 homeless, abandoned, and feral cats each year. With your support, we can give these cats the love, safety, and forever homes they deserve.

Volunteer

Join a compassionate community making life better for cats in need. As a volunteer, you’ll lend a hand to create lasting change, discover new skills, form friendships (human and feline alike), and experience the joy of knowing you’ve made a difference. The rewards? Warm fuzzies, lifelong connections, and plenty of purrs.

CatNap believes that all cats are entitled to a safe, caring, and happy home.    

Our mandate is to rescue feral and abandoned cats and kittens, have their medical needs met, including treatment of illness and injury, vaccines, parasite control, spay/neuter surgeries, and socialize them in foster homes before finding them loving homes. In the case of some feral cats who are unlikely to be successfully socialized to an indoor home, they will be released back to their original colony location after receiving required medical care and are spayed/neutered, and where they are provided shelter and daily food and water by a caregiver.

 

We rely upon donations from the public and fundraising events to sustain our rescue efforts and operations. Every gift of support, no matter the size, is greatly appreciated and goes towards helping the cats and kittens coming into our care.
