Homeless Cat Helpers, Inc.

Homeless Cat Helpers, Inc. is a partner of Best Friends, working together to save the lives of dogs and cats in communities like yours across the country

The Best Friends Network is made up of thousands of public and private shelters, rescue groups, spay/neuter organizations, and other animal welfare groups — all working to save the lives of dogs and cats in communities like yours across the country.

From Homeless Cat Helpers, Inc.

We are a Non-Profit 501(c)(3) All-Volunteer, All-Spay/Neuter, No-Kill Cat Rescue Organization. We function as a co-operative, serving the needs of our Helpers in our homes, primarily from Seaford and Western Sussex County. We also now operate the adoption center at the Petco in Seaford Village, next to Peebles, and a few doors down from Roses. Our purpose is to further the process of Delaware becoming a No-Kill state, through the twin goals of 1) reducing cat procreation / overpopulation, and 2) reducing the needless euthanizing of cats and kittens, especially those that are tame and healthy.
