Why a network matters

The cat does not have to fit a narrow service phenotype.

Cats in the City accepts the cat who arrives: young or old, routine or reactive, healthy or medically complex. That requires a system able to recognize what is happening, modify care in real time, and connect families with the next appropriate resource.

The family of care

Three connected systems serve different parts of a cat’s life.

Direct care supports daily function. Transition infrastructure responds when the current system is unstable. TANDEM Cat® defines the professional method and standards behind the care.
