at vokra, we rescue, heal, then place cats - first in our network of foster homes, then in carefully matched, loving, forever homes. We’re a passionate, volunteer-driven charity with extensive cat care experience.

adopt
Each year more than 1,200 cats and kittens are adopted through VOKRA. Our adoption counsellors follow a robust matching process to ensure you find your perfect companion. Plus we're always here after the adoption if you need ongoing advice.
get involved
Volunteers and fosters are at the heart of everything we do. Without them, we couldn’t rescue and find loving homes for the more than 1,400 kittens and cats VOKRA takes in each year. There are many ways to become involved in our organization.
