Small Companion Advocacy Team, Inc.

Mayville, NY

Our Mission

Our guiding principle is to maximize the good we can achieve with minimal resources. We are a small animal rescue who rescues and rehomes most species of small animals. While our focus is to rescue or rehome the small animals like rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters, we firmly believe that there are not enough resources for felines which is causing an unwanted cat crisis in our country. Collaboration is essential in addressing the issues surrounding unwanted, stray, and feral animals.
The situation with stray and feral cats is particularly concerning. Together with other willing organizations, we offer low-cost spay/neuter services to individuals who care for cats that live outdoors, whether owned or stray.

The problems related to cats have escalated into a community concern. Local governments are enacting laws that could adversely impact the populations of feral, stray, and unwanted cats. We advocate for kind, non-confrontational education and promote spay/neuter as the most vital tool available to rescue organizations and shelters.

Although our mission has always been to assist all animals, our sheltering resources are limited. We are fortunate to collaborate with dedicated veterinarians who provide low-cost spay/neuter services for eligible cats. Unfortunately, we currently lack the capacity to accept cat surrenders, whether owned or stray. The cats available through our rescue are those we have taken in under urgent circumstances, such as the death of an owner or at the request of a veterinarian. If you need to surrender a cat, we recommend you reach out to other local rescues as we cannot accommodate these requests.
