Aitutaki Animal Rescue is a registered NGO charity in the Cook Islands. Our mission is to support, rescue, adopt and care for the cats of Aitutaki.

We do this by donation only. Aitutaki Community Animal Rescue (AAR) is devoted to caring for the animals of Aitutaki. We do this working with veterinary volunteers to provide health services including desexing, health checks, deworming, etc. Steph Joseph is our local AAR director & provides all of the rescue operations. To support our efforts, donations can made by PayPal, directly to Steph or through our website: www.aitutaki-cats.com. Please see our FaceBook page for more info.

It is DRY and HOT. Do you animals have SHADE and WATER ? Please don't leave goats, pigs or cows in direct sun without shade or water. The grass has NO water in it for the goats. Please ,if you can, put them near a tree or bush and give them water daily during the dry season.

What happens if I don't desex my male cat? He will have the STRONG urges to mate, fight and make babies. He will have a hard life of wounds, infections, wandering and health problems, his life will be shorter. A desexed male cat is a HEALTHIER cat, he will still hunt but will be healthier and live a longer, better life. Care for the boy cats, let's desex them. VET HERE FRIDAY.

First rescue kitty of this season, maybe 10 days old, was found behind Kayla's store, bottle feeding this cutie but will need some TLC. So thakful we had donations of kitten milk in preparation. Please tell kids that if they pat a kittne to leave it with the mumma, or if the remove it to take it back to the mum. Without mummy it will die very quickly. This is Kayla's baby and im sure soon he will be a big boy and will be able to go live in his new home.

Lovely Emma visited Aitutaki and notified me of two cats needing vet assistance. One cutie boy living at Paradise Cove had meds for his eye, flea and worm treatment and was returned. The other gorgeous ginger boy was in a terrible condition with dehydration and severe kidney problems and after big cuddles, we had to end his pain for him.
Emma has raised $AUD 545 for use in Mr Gingers name. We are SO excited as we get quite a few ginger cats, by visit or trap, to help and we would LOVE to buy some flea treatments which are so darned expensive!!! Here's some pics of recent Ginger's we have helped.
