About

Our Mission

Since 2016, our mission is to provide loving care to every cat that comes through the rescue, regardless of their circumstances or medical condition; and actively seek a permanent home for each cat/kitten rescued. Unless serious illness would warrant, euthanasia is not an option for cats in the care of Loving Care Cat Rescue.

Our History

In 2016, our founder and director, Lisa Snyder, started rescuing cats as a child. She would see the unwanted cats, hear their horrible stories, and feel sympathy for them. Lisa would bring kitties home and care for them with the support of her mother. As an adult, Lisa got involved with TNR (trap, neuter, return) and helped to care for TNR colonies. It was through this work, and her involvement with Spay Neuter Assistance Program of PA, that she saw the obvious need for more places for friendly outdoor kitties to go and formed the rescue.

Loving Care Cat Rescue’s mission is to provide loving care to every cat that comes through the rescue, regardless of the circumstances or medical condition; and actively seek a permanent home for each cat/kitten rescued. Unless serious illness warrants, euthanasia is not an option for cats in the care of Loving Care Cat Rescue. We strive to treat all members of our rescue, both human and feline, with respect, and to always do the right thing for our kitties. Although it can limit our capacity, we feel every kitty deserves the best chance to survive.

LCCR is a network of foster homes throughout central Pennsylvania. We are 100% volunteer run. We average 693 rescues each year, and 642 adoptions, and our numbers grow each year. Since 2016, we have accepted into the rescue, vetted, spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and provided flea treatment and any other additional care to over 7,000 kitties, and have had over 6500 adoptions.

A Message From Our Founder

In 2026, we’re celebrating 10 years of saving kitties! Our founder and director, Lisa Snyder, has a message of thanks for all those who have supported us through the last decade.

Thank you to our volunteers, fosters, supporters, sponsors, and everyone who has been involved with LCCR in the last 10 years.

We couldn’t do what we do without you, and we can’t wait to see what the next decade brings.
