Mission Statement

Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue’s mission is to care for and shelter homeless cats and kittens until we can find them a permanent, loving home.

About This Cause

Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue (RMFR) was founded in 1982 with the mission to care for homeless, abandoned, abused, and neglected cats. Today, RMFR is a limited-intake, free-roaming shelter with the capacity to have up to 125 cats and kittens on-site. Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue strives to have an impact on homeless cats and kittens by providing shelter and partnering with local veterinarians to deliver comprehensive medical care and life saving surgeries. At RMFR, we partner with high risk shelters throughout the nation to reduce euthanasia rates and provide shelter for special cat populations, including those diagnosed as FIV+ and FeLV+. In 2019, RMFR was able to provide shelter and medical treatment, including in-house surgeries, for over 3,100 cats and kittens. RMFR does not contract with local governing bodies and receives no government funding. Instead, the rescue relies on individual donations, events, and grant fundraising efforts to support operation expenses. The rescue offers cat-safe indoor and outdoor spaces which allow shelter cats the freedom to explore their surroundings and genuinely interact with people and other cats. RMFR also utilizes in-store adoption programs to maximize adoption opportunities. The rescue also has a robust foster network of dedicated volunteers who provide healthy environments for RMFR cats. Our cats develop strong social skills which lead to a high-percentage of permanent placements in furever homes. Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue relies on the partnership of our local community through individual donations and fundraising efforts to support all operational expenses, as we do not contract with local governing bodies or receive government funding. We are committed to serving the needs of homeless cats by offering safe indoor and outdoor spaces at our shelter, which allows our residents the freedom to explore their surroundings and genuinely interact with people and other cats. In addition, RMFR partners with local in-store adoption programs to maximize all opportunities for members of our community to adopt their next family member. Our cats are able to develop strong social skills through a robust foster network of dedicated volunteers who provide healthy, in-home environments for RMFR cats and kittens until they are ready to be adopted. Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue is committed to finding a safe and healthy home for every cat that we are able to accept into our shelter. At RMFR, we do not have expectations for how long it should take for a cat to find the right home, and we only euthanize when medically necessary after all other avenues have been exhausted. We believe that every cat deserves a second chance, and we ensure that during the time each cat spends with us, we make it a life worth living.
