About Us
Metro Denver CAT is a collaboration of animal welfare groups working together to make Denver a place where cats are valued and cared for by an engaged community. We are working for cats and kittens that are pets, strays, or feral cats. We provided free, lifesaving services to over 1,400 cats in 2021. Click here to see more of our impact by the numbers.
