Organized in early 2020, Garfield's Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose vision is to "Eliminate suffering of community/homeless cats on the Northern Neck of Virginia" which include Lancaster, Northumberland, Westmoreland, and Richmond Counties. Our story began with the realization of lack of funding and capacity to foster the large numbers of adoptable community/homeless cats on the Northern Neck. A small all-volunteer group sprang into action, creating a vision, and identifying actions to reach our vision. In September 2022, we rescued our 1000th homeless cat. As of mid-2023, we have rescued over 1315 cats and kittens, with more intakes almost daily. We do not receive local or state funding and rely completely on the generosity of our donors, community and volunteers. Our motto is “Making a Difference on Virginia’s Northern Neck – One Cat at a Time!”
