Who Are We?

Clear Creek Cat Rescue is a group of individuals in Southcentral Alaska dedicated to rescuing cats in need and finding happy homes for them. We each give what we can to help these cats get through this most unfortunate time in their lives when they have been taken to the pound or are otherwise lost and homeless. Some of us share our homes with these cats while they are waiting for their forever family, some transport them from place to place, some take pictures and some post ads. Some offer financial help. We each do what we can to help. And through this dedicated group of people, hundreds of cats have been saved and found loving homes.

(Between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011, CCCR rescued 300 cats from the Palmer shelter.)

What Do We Do?

Clear Creek Cat Rescue was founded to help find homes for the Mat-Su Animal Shelter’s cat population. Cats that are unable to be adopted from the Mat-Su shelter because of illness or other issues are rescued by Clear Creek and given the extra love and care that they need, and when ready, placed into a forever home to be part of a family. Clear Creek Cat Rescue also rescues cats that have run out of time at the Animal Shelter, and gives them the extra days or weeks they need to find their purrfect home. We take cats from the Houston shelter, as well as homeless cats from Dutch Harbor. CCCR also sometimes accepts cats from private individuals and other rescues when there is a need.

What Do We Believe?

CCCR is NOT an advocate of indoor-only cat care. We believe that cats need and have a right to the outside as much as humans. We therefore encourage adopters to provide a safe place for their new family members to go outside, to feel the sun on their face and the wind in their hair, and to enjoy the wonders of the natural world.

*Please note that because declawing is a painful and unnecessary procedure which has no benefit to the cat, we will NOT adopt cats to anyone who would declaw the cat.* (Please see the attachment below for more detail on declawing.)

CCCR does require adoption fees. These generally range between $30 and $60, and include the cat's spay/neuter and shots, including the rabies vaccine. In some instances, if an adopter cannot afford the full adoption fee, a sponsor may offer to pay a portion of the fee.

We invite you to join us in this effort to save these homeless creatures. If you would like to foster a cat, transport, groom, or take pictures of cats, please contact us. All help is needed.

If you would like to sponsor a cat, either one in foster care or one that is presently at the pound, in order to encourage its adoption or to help with the expense of its care, you can use the Donate button on the left side of the page to donate using paypal. If your donation is for a specific cat, please let us know by email. You may also contact us at Clear Creek Cat Rescue, PO Box 602, Talkeetna, AK 99676. Phone 980-8898.

Thanks so much for your help.
