Zen Cat Sanctuary began on September 15, 2021, but the work behind it started long before that. Over time, I built the skills needed to care for a large number of animals and manage the daily systems that keep a sanctuary running.

Today, Zen Cat Sanctuary is facing an urgent relocation, and 180 cats are relying on us to ensure that move is safe. I?m raising funds to help secure a new permanent site and cover the costs of relocating the sanctuary.

How the funds will be used

Moving and transport for 180 cats: $6,000

Veterinary care, medications, and health checks: $10,000

Lease, deposit, or purchase costs for the new location: $15,000

Supplies, food, litter, and setup at the new site: $9,000

Emergency reserve for unexpected relocation costs: $5,000

Our timeline

We are hoping to secure our new facility and begin phased relocation by October 1, 2026. The immediate next step is to find a suitable space. Next is finalizing the site agreements and preparing dedicated transport and holding supplies, and your support can help us move forward without disrupting the cats? care.

About the sanctuary

Zen Cat Sanctuary exists to give cats a safe place and consistent care. Right now, the priority is protecting all 180 cats through this transition and creating stability for them at the next location.
