Maywood, IL 60153
CatVando Cat Rescue, a volunteer-driven 501c3 organization based in Maywood, IL, is committed to enhancing the well-being of felines in the local community through a comprehensive approach. Emphasizing the significance of trap, neuter, return (TNR) initiatives, the organization strives to manage the stray cat population and alleviate their suffering.
At CatVando, cats with terminal illnesses find solace in a hospice setting, receiving compassionate care and a nurturing environment for their remaining days. Serving as a haven for cats considered unadoptable due to medical or behavioral challenges, the shelter ensures these animals have a safe space where they are valued and cared for.
Moreover, CatVando operates as an adoption center where cats are prepared for their forever homes through socialization and dedicated attention. By fostering a secure and loving atmosphere for cats in need, the organization aims to advocate for responsible pet ownership while offering educational resources to the community.
