About Furry Friends
Furry Friends is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit no-kill cat rescue, serving Vancouver and surrounding areas. With over 200 volunteers and only three staff members, we rescue and rehome upwards of 800 cats annually. At Furry Friends, we specialize in saving cats and kittens from indoor and outdoor animal hoarding situations, which is a prominent issue in our area. We have built a reputation for being one of the only cat rescue organizations in our area to take on these cases, as almost all these cats require extensive medical care and socialization to be prepared for adoption.
