The Hervey Foundation
for Cats
Welcome!
We are The Hervey Foundation for Cats - a charitable, non-profit, no-kill cat refuge. We operate on the donations we receive from our gracious supporters. If you would like to become a supporter, visit our donations page!
The Hervey Foundation for Cats is a place of refuge for cats. We specialize in cat rescue for those who otherwise would perish: the abandoned, the abused, the sick, the old, the suffering. In some cases we adopt, but our main focus is providing care. Our mission is to provide a loving, home environment for cats with no other place to go - we are the last resort for cats who would otherwise be euthanized.
The Hervey Foundation for Cats is a no-kill, non-profit, tax-exempt, private charitable foundation.
Our Mission is three-fold.
-
We give each cat immediate medical care. Each is spayed or neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped, and rehabilitated physically and psychologically. We find loving homes for those who can be adopted. The rest live out their lives in peace and dignity in our family.
-
Educate people to have compassion and respect for all animals. We promote that an animal is a lifetime commitment – we advocate early spaying and neutering as a solution to the overpopulation of animals. In addition, we recommend micro-chipping of all animals as a means of identification should they stray.
-
Finding good, loving, and caring homes for those cats that are adoptable. Being a private Foundation, our screening procedures are strict to ensure that our cats will receive the best care possible.
Marjorie Hervey
Founder & President
Our founder and president, Marjorie Hervey, works for the Foundation 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Marjorie has been referred to as the “Mother Theresa” of cats. She is the person who provides the inspiration and drive. There is no doubt that the sick, the homeless, and the neglected felines that she willingly and without reservation devotes herself to, have never felt the warmth, love and compassion that she dotes on every one of them. You will note that the cats are rarely isolated, and they live in a warm familial environment after being acclimatized to live in harmony with our other guests.
