Our Cause

The National Cat Protection Society (NatCat) is a non-profit, no-kill cat shelter. We welcome owner-relinquished cats and kittens to stay in our clean and comfortable living quarters until they find a proper home. Our state-of-the-art facilities with protected access to the "outdoors" in large enclosed patio areas let them enjoy themselves without compromising their safety.

NatCat has two cat shelters in Southern California: Newport Beach and Spring Valley. The trained staff and dedicated volunteers all share a tremendous love for cats and are selflessly dedicated to their well-being.

Read on to learn about the Society, see some great pictures of our cats and find out how you can become part of our organization, whether you live in Southern California or some other part of the world.
