Join Our Mission and Donate to Support Cats & Kittens

Whisker Foundation, located in Everett, Washington and the Puget Sound Region, is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit cat rescue dedicated to saving vulnerable cats and kittens through compassionate care, rehabilitation, and responsible adoption. Your donation provides food, medical care, and loving care for rescued cats and kittens.

Your support makes all the difference.

Every year, millions of cats enter shelters and rescues, frightened and uncertain about what comes next. Each one has a story, a personality, and a quiet hope for a second chance. At Whisker Foundation, we believe no cat should be forgotten. Saving even one life can transform an entire world — and that’s why we exist. Donations make this mission possible.
