Delaware Desert Cats Inc.

Welcome

We are a small-scale nonprofit feline rescue focusing on aiding overseas cats in relocating to the United States to find their forever homes founded in 2023.

We work with local Middle Eastern animal rescuers to facilitate feline travel to the US, completing the necessary veterinary services, and connecting potential adopters with specialty breed felines.

Animals and animal lovers in the Middle East face issues that aren't an occurrence in the United States. There are no animal welfare laws, nor are there resources for people struggling to care for their pets. Inhumane markets are allowed to continue sales of pets without ensuring their health or providing appropriate space, food or water. Private rescuers step in to save the cats in these markets, in the desert and on the streets by providing initial medical care. Without enough adoptive homes in the United States, they cannot continue to help the many cats in need.

The felines that are native to these areas just so happen to be some of the most beautiful and sought after breeds in the United States. Persians, Himalayans, British Shorthairs, Egyptian/Arabian Maus, Scottish Folds, Turkish Angoras, mixes of these breeds and more all call the Middle East home.

Our goal is to assist Middle Eastern rescuers by accepting international cats into our facility, placing them for adoption and sending a portion of our adoption fees back to the independent rescuers on the frontlines so they can continue assisting cats in need.
