The Best Cat Rescues in Missouri State
According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, approximately 3.2 million cats enter U.S. animal shelters nationwide every year.
Even though 2.1 million cats are adopted every year, still approximately 530,000 shelter cats are euthanized every year. Pathetic.
You can help cats that end up in shelters/rescues by adopting these cats.
We have researched and compiled a list of the best cat rescues in your area.
However, we should mention that our list is not exhaustive because any non-profit organization that takes cats off the streets and offers these cats second chances deserves to be on our list. However, we do not have the space to include everyone.
If you know of any reputable cat rescue that we have not included on our list, please drop the name of the rescue in our comment section below.
Note that the animal rescues listed in this article did not pay us to include them in the list. We did our research without bias.
As a disclaimer, we will like to advise you to do your due diligence before working with any of the listed cat rescue organizations.
Also, always conduct your research and consult with specialists in your region before making any pet-related decisions.

The Mission Statement of The Cat Network: “To find loving, permanent homes for homeless cats who have few or no options for positive outcomes.”
The Cat Network is a no-kill shelter/rescue.
The Mission Statement of Animal House Cat Rescue and Adoption Center: “Animal House Cat Rescue and Adoption Center is a private, non-profit, “no-kill” organization dedicated to providing the homeless, abandoned cats and kittens of St. Louis with a better life. We are committed to maintaining an adoption center that provides a safe, healthy and enriching environment, and our goal is a solid and lasting adoption for every cat and kitten in our care.
Animal House opened in 2010 when the City of St. Louis closed its municipal shelter and ended a number of services for stray animals. Not only did the 75 cats residing in their shelter need a place to go, the St. Louis community needed services for abandoned, homeless cats. Animal House was born out of that need. Today we house 200-250 cats and kittens at any given time.
The cats and kittens at Animal House are rescued from the streets of our community and often come from challenging circumstances that include neglect, abandonment, or injury. We have created a safe place where cats in need find shelter, medical and nutritional support, individualized socialization and interaction, enrichment, lots of love, and the opportunity to connect with a loving, lifelong family. We impose no time limit on this process, giving each cat or kitten the time they need. We emphasize matchmaking throughout our adoption process to ensure the best possible match.”
The Mission Statement of Eden Animal Haven: “The mission of Eden Animal Haven is: To provide a safe, cage-free haven for abused, abandoned, and unwanted cats, with the goal of adopting them into loving forever homes. To provide loving care and sanctuary to cats deemed as “unadoptable.” To educate the public about pet overpopulation and the importance of spay/neuter.”
Eden Animal Haven is a no-kill shelter/rescue.
The Mission Statement of Fancy Feline Rescue of Missouri: “Fancy Feline Rescue of Missouri is a no-kill rescue dedicated to specialty breed cats.

We aim match our cats with appropriate forever homes and ensure their new families are educated on the specific needs of that breed.
