Our Mission
The Atlas Cat Foundation is a non-profit organization which provides medical resources, such as spay and neuter surgeries, medication administration and humane catch and release programs, to the street cats of Marrakesh Morocco. Resources are administered by hands-on Atlas Foundation volunteers to our local veterinary office in Targa. Our team has decades of experience conducting these services in New York City and is eager to bring these resources to Marrakesh every year. The Atlas Cat Foundation has been started in order to help address the high population of street cats in desperate need of medical attention.
Our mission is to provide the cats of Morocco with quality medical care and spay/neuter surgery. Our goal is to positively impact future cat generations of this country, by controlling the population and increasing the health of existing cat colonies.
All donations will be monitored and administered directly by Atlas Foundation staff!
