Canberra Pet Rescue is a registered not-for-profit charity (incorporated association), with cats and kittens cared for in foster carers homes across Canberra. We primarily rescue cats and kittens on ‘death-row’ at pounds, but also take those who have been surrendered or abandoned.
We aim to ensure that no matter how they come into this world, every cat/kitten we save is given the chance to find a happy and loving forever home.

Cats on Mats
The original and the best!
We held Canberra’s first ever Cats on Mats (yoga with kittens) session on the 20th of January 2017. Our kittens loved their yoga session and we received some amazing feedback! You can read an article about it from the Canberra Times here.
Due to the overwhelming positive feedback and support, we have successful ran over 20 Cats on Mats (yoga with kittens) sessions now!! We have a dedicated and amazing group of volunteer yoga instructors who have come up with an incredible yoga routine for all levels to have as much fun with the kittens as possible.
Our kittens love the sessions which hugely help with their socialisation skills. The zen atmosphere in the studio makes the kittens feel like they’re in control of the class and they like to meet everyone with their funny interactive antics!
We advertise these events on our Facebook when they are coming up, and they sell out fast so stay tuned!
Ensure you keep an eye out for the upcoming Cats on Mats sessions and other fun events on our events page.

As we head into our THIRD MONTH of the Animal Bushfire Appeal, our volunteers are absolutely EXHAUSTED! We need help, we need more volunteers who can spare even just an hour, a once off or multiple days. We can’t do this without you.
There are still so many animals in need. So many places where regeneration hasn’t occurred yet and there isn’t the food for the surging wildlife, and people are living in dreadful conditions with their pets and struggling to feed them after losing everything. We need your help!
Grab your friends or make new ones at one of our fundraising events.
WE NEED YOU 🐾 Just send us a message to join our beautiful CPR family 🧡
Also a HUUUUGE THANK YOU to Woolworths Belconnen who for the third week in a row donated fresh produce to help our starving wildlife 🧡
And of course, none of this would be possible without our SUPERHERO VOLUNTEERS behind the scenes!! 🧡
Superhero Janine not only manned the stall for 4 hours tonight with Superhero Bree, but is also taking the FULL CAR full of fresh produce to our hub early tomorrow morning for distribution.
This was our biggest collection stall thus far and all of it will be distributed to the 150 food and water hubs this weekend to save our surviving wildlife 🐾
It’s important to know that even though there’s a bit of green starting in some places (yay!), there’s still some time to go before the bush can regenerate itself enough to feed the wildlife, so they still desperately need this food to survive.
Thank you!! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
‼️PS - we’re all exhausted and in need of more volunteers to man our weekly Belco Friday night stall 5-9pm and to drive our donations to our Braidwood hub on Saturday mornings - please send us a message if you can help 🙏
We have gloves and masks to use and DESPERATELY need help to unload this lot in time to go out on convoys!!
We moved TONNES yesterday, we are EXHAUSTED 😩
Anyone who can help even just for half an hour right now would be soooo very appreciated.
Warehouse location: 4 Wales Street Belconnen
Please just drop in and help!!
