01 / ABOUT US
They belong to
our island.
Let’s look after them.
For the cats who need a second chance. And the people who care about them.
Safe Cats of Barbados is a volunteer-run, donation-funded charity supporting vulnerable cats through rescue, veterinary care, rehabilitation and rehoming.
Wendy and Barbara founded the organisation with a shared commitment to humane, sustainable care. Today, that work reaches from individual cats to whole colonies, with practical support for communities, property owners and the people who look after them.
Responsible pet ownership, education and Trap Neuter Return are all part of the same vision: a more compassionate Barbados.
Rooted in compassion.Registered charity no. 1752
02 / TRAP NEUTER RETURN
Care today.
A better tomorrow.
Humane population management starts with caring for the cats already here.
Neuter
Sterilisation and basic veterinary care help prevent further litters and support the welfare of the colony.
Return
Cats return to their established territory. Ongoing feeding, observation and colony care support a sustainable approach.
Looking after a colony near your home or business? Ask Safe Cats about assessment, advice and TNR support.

Your next flight.
Their fresh start.
One journey. One very special passenger.
Cats with homes waiting in the USA need flight escorts from Barbados to JFK or Boston. Safe Cats says it arranges the carrier and paperwork, meets you at the airport and coordinates arrival support, with no cost to the escort.
Share your travel plans with the team to confirm current routes, eligibility and arrangements. The charity also assists visitors interested in taking a cat home.
