HART Homeless Animal Rescue Team of Maine

About HART The Homeless Animal Rescue Team ( HART ) is a shelter and adoption center for cats that has operated in Cumberland, Maine since 1997. We provide refuge, comfort, and medical attention to cats and kittens that have been surrendered, abandoned, injured, or abused, and find loving homes to adopt them. HART is staffed entirely by volunteers who are dedicated to the well being of the shelter residents. We care for pets that would otherwise be out on the street, assuring their safety, health, and comfort. Our new shelter building was constructed in 2004. It was custom designed for cat sheltering and offers our residents an open environment, with climbing structures and lots of comfy beds. This environment allows the cats the freedom to play, nest, and hide, as well as form bonds with one another. All of our animals receive lots of love and attention, as well as expert veterinary care. HART is a 501 ( c ) corporation licensed by the State of Maine. We are a member of the American Humane Association, the American Partnership for Pets and the New England Federation of Humane Societies. HART receives no public funding of any kind. We are supported entirely by the generosity of individual donors, foundations, and businesses. Please lend your support by sending a donation to: HART, 04021. All contributions are tax deductible.
