Mission
Cat Crusader's mission is to rescue, vaccinate, spay or neuter, and find loving adoptive homes for stray and neglected cats. Whenever possible we will assist cats who, because of extenuating circumstances, are unable to remain in their homes with their owners. Additionally, we seek to increase public awareness of the companion animal overpopulation issue and provide solutions to end the killing of adoptable animals in the Tampa Bay area and beyond.
Program accomplishments
- In 2025 Cat Crusaders continued its mission to reduce the unwanted cat population. All cats were spayed/neutered , vaccinated, and microchipped. Additionally Cat Crusaders occasionally provides pet supplies to those in the community in financial need. The expense amount associated with this PSA is the combined cost of veterinary care and Program supplies.Expenses $92,868 · grants $15,000
