About Us
At Wild Blue Animal Rescue and Sanctuary, we are dedicated to providing a safe and loving environment for animals in need. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome cats and kittens who have been abandoned, abused, neglected, displaced, or surrendered. We believe that every animal deserves a second chance at a happy and healthy life.
Our sanctuary is located in the beautiful Black Forest area of Colorado Springs, where we provide communal housing for our feline residents. Each cat has the opportunity to coexist with other cats while they wait for their forever homes. We also offer outdoor time in spacious "catios" protected from the elements and predators. Some of our cats may stay with us for their entire lives, but we are committed to finding every cat a loving home.
We have an extensive foster family network that primarily houses our kittens. Our foster families help care for neonatal bottle-fed kittens to older kittens, as well as pregnant mama cats or mama cats with kittens. Occasionally, a foster home will also become a final resting place for a cat who needs hospice care as its life comes to an end.
One of the key components of our sanctuary is Maya’s Friends Wildheart Village, a 100-foot by 200-foot outdoor, netted enclosure with a heated shed. This special area provides a safe and comfortable environment for our shy, feral cats who cannot be released back into the wild. Our volunteers care for these cats daily, and some even become candidates for adoption depending on their stress level and adaptability.
We are committed to preventing and eliminating euthanasia of treatable and savable animals. Euthanasia is only considered a last resort for animals suffering severe injuries or illnesses that cause extreme discomfort and poor quality of life. We work tirelessly to ensure that every cat we help is spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped before being adopted.
Our team is passionate about what we do, and we are grateful for the support of our donors, grantors, and fundraising partners. We have been fortunate to receive grants from organizations such as the ASPCA Adoption Ambassador Program, the Subaru “Share the Love” Event, and the Petco Foundation. These partnerships have enabled us to continue our mission and provide a better life for the animals in our care.
At Wild Blue Animal Rescue and Sanctuary, we believe that every cat deserves love, care, and a second chance. We invite you to join us in our mission to make a difference in the lives of these precious animals. Together, we can ensure that every cat finds a forever home where they can live happily and healthily.
