Every part of a cat’s care, connected.
Portland Cat Care is the central routing system for Cats in the City and its extended family of feline-only services, rescue and transition programs, professional standards, and Portland-area resources.

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.
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.
