Following the Canterbury earthquakes the ‘residential red zone’ was created in eastern Christchurch. Thousands of people had to leave their homes. Redzonecats was founded to rescue cats made homeless by the earthquakes and we identify and return many cats who are lost when moved to a new home. We also rescue cats born wild and socialise them in communities at our home-like shelter.

Shy lost and homeless cats are rarely seen so we use cameras and a remote microchip reader to locate them at our feeding stations. Many are hungry and afraid. Some are in pain. Identification and selective trapping methods developed in the red zone are now helping cats in other areas including Christ Church Cathedral, Bromley and Richmond.

THESE CATS NEED OUR HELP.
