Cat Rescue

Meet Penelope, also known as Princess Penelope. This sweetie is very social and friendly. She is a beautiful short-haired Tabby hoping to find a home where she will be spoiled for the rest of her life. At 9 years young, this lovely girl has many good years of life ahead of her.

Hi there! My name is Onyx and I’m the cat of the week at Catmandu.

Over the last 10 years, Catmandu has helped more than 2700 cats and kittens have a better life through rescue, adoption, education, assistance programs and a cage-free sanctuary. To mark the occasion and raise money to continue their lifesaving efforts, Catmandu is having a celebration/fundraising event from 6-9 pm on Saturday, June 29th at the Carson Events Center.

Once again our cat of the week is the winner of our Whisker Wednesday contest at Catmandu. Meet Cutie Pie. While she loves to be called Cutie, you can also call her Pie for short.

Perfection in a fur coat is the best way to describe Cher, our cat of the week. Just 7 months old, she is a pretty little short-haired girl with a sweet and social personality.

Meet Ricky and Reba, a sweet bonded pair who are waiting for their forever home. Sometimes bad things happen to good cats. Nobody knows this better than Ricky and Reba. Approximately 3 years old, they were abandoned when their owner moved, leaving them to fend for themselves on the streets of Reno. It wasn’t easy.

Are you looking for an angel in your life? Look no further, this special kitty lives up to his name. Angel is one of the sweetest cats I have ever met.

The Whisker Wednesday contest at Catmandu went to this dapper fellow. Meet Max, a long-haired 6-year-old kitty who is always dressed to impress in his handsome black and white tuxedo. He has an adorable white half-moustache and big green eyes. This special guy has a sweet and playful disposition. Everyone falls in love with him and so will you.

Cinza, our cat of the week, is still waiting for her forever home. This beautiful and playful kitty is ready to liven up your life and home.

Double the love! Double the fun! This week’s cat of the week is not one, but two sweet short-haired black brothers who are looking for a new home together.

Catmandu will be closed this Saturday and Sunday, Sept 30th and Oct 1st for hopefully final repair work on the floors.

Catmandu is happy to announce an OPEN HOUSE on Saturday, September 23rd from Noon until 4 p.m. to celebrate the re-opening of the facility and show off all the improvements made over the past 3 months. The public is invited to stop by, have a cookie, and see the new and improved Catmandu.

Due to an issue with the new flooring, Carson City's Catmandu has to push the date for re-opening back one more week to Aug. 25.

Thanks to the efforts of a small but extremely dedicated group of Catmandu volunteers as well as some amazing volunteers and donations from the community, the makeover at Catmandu is proceeding at a steady pace. We have made real progress and the place is looking great!

Catmandu will be closed from June 19 to July 27, 2023 for a facility makeover. Almost a decade of helping cats has finally caught up with us. The facility is desperately in need of maintenance, repairs and some necessary improvements. We just can’t put them off any longer.

Are you looking for a beautiful, super snuggly and affectionate gal to sweeten your summer? Meet Ciri.

This gorgeous young kitty was a teenage momma living on the streets, trying to feed and care for her 6 kittens.

Bring home happiness this weekend with a special cat or kitten from Catmandu as part of Best Friends Animal Sanctuary National Adoption Weekend. The event is this Friday through Sunday July 22-24, from 11am to 3:30 pm.

Do you love tortoiseshell (tortie) cats, but wish they didn’t come with so much attitude, also known as cattitude? Look no further than Priscilla: beautiful inside and out. This young cat is gentle, playful, affectionate and loves kisses. What more could you ask for? Well, she also likes other cats, is up to date on shots, spayed and housetrained.

These boys are sweet and playful brothers with lots of personality. Life started out rough for them when they came down with serious kitty diseases that required special treatments. With lots of medical care and nursing, homeopathy and love from their foster mom, these boys beat the odds and survived.

Truly a “Tom Cat”, Gentle Ben was living on the streets in Northern California with his homeless owner. Animal Control captured him and placed him in a small steel cage at a high kill shelter. He was too scared to eat and wouldn’t interact with any of the staff. He was quickly placed on the euthanasia list.

In an effort to raise much-needed funds for the kitties, Catmandu is having a benefit yard sale this Friday and Saturday, July 17 and 18. It will be held at Catmandu, 1829 Brown Street in Carson City. Hours of the sale are 8 a.m. until 1 p.m.

Catmandu is excited to announce the purchase of our facility at 1829 Brown Street in Carson City. After 4 years of providing a cage-free shelter, adoptions, spay and neuter and rescue services for northern Nevada’s cats and kittens, we are now a permanent part of Carson City and the surrounding communities.

We’ve got a wine walk weekend coming our way, come rain, snow, or shine. This one could get a little blustery; there’s a storm moving in. I’m just grateful that Mother Nature waited until after the parade and trick-or-treat night to send us some winter.

I am a resident of Carson City’s West side for almost three decades and Friday morning my brother in law made me aware of a cat stuck in a 40 foot tall tree. Immediately, I thought this animal will need to be helped and will not be able to come down on its own.
