About PHCR

Founded in 1990 to help with placement and care of unwanted and abused Persian cats

History

Elvis and Wanda
In 1990, a Persian cat named "Rudy" was left at the cat grooming shop of Wanda Roe. The caregiver did not return for Rudy. So, Wanda found a new home for Rudy with one of her grooming clients. Having been able to place Rudy so quickly, Wanda thought of Maureen Munns, who ran Persian Rescue in Livermore, and offered to place some of her Persian Rescues.
Wanda and Maureen worked together until the late '90's, when Maureen retired from Rescue. At that time, most of the cats in Rescue were housed and adopted at Wanda's in Mill Valley, CA.

In the early '90's, our adoption rate was 25 cats per year. We now adopt and place over 100 cats each year.

YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

ADOPT! Or tell your friends and co-workers about Persian and Himalayan Cat Rescue if they are looking for a new kitty.

VOLUNTEER! We always need volunteers who can:

• Foster Persians
• Transport to and from shelters and rescue center
• Set up and post Flyers and other PR work

DONATE! 100% of donations go to the care of the cats, including vet bills and shelter fees, and to promoting the cats through the web site.

Please consider donating to us directly or through our donation partners JustGive and iGive. Or, many companies allow their employees to designate Persian & Himalayan Cat Rescue as a recipient of automatic charitable payroll deductions, so please ask your employer.

We are a Non-Profit 501-[c]3 Corporation

Thanks to:

THANK YOU To those people who have adopted cats from us. You are lifesavers! When we move a cat into a new home, we can bring another cat in to Rescue before he or she is euthanized elsewhere.

THANK YOU!! To the volunteers who keep the Rescue going. Without you, the task would be too big!!

THANK YOU!! To the veterinarians for their support and services and reduced rates!!
