A Better Tomorrow Shelter for Cats Cat rescue in Winchendon, MA

We are a non-profit cat shelter, run by volunteers, who are committed to the care and well-being of every cat or kitten that we rescue. We accept stray, abandoned, or unwanted cats in the Winchendon area. As space allows, we also accept cats who might otherwise be euthanized or abandoned, from individuals with financial hardship or other circumstances.

We rely solely on donations and adoption fees to sustain our effort which is why your support is so important. 100% of donations are spent caring for the cats. All donations are tax deductible.
