At the heart of Cats.ie is a commitment we take seriously: The wellbeing of cats always comes before profit, popularity, or convenience. This promise shapes every decision we make — from how listings work, to how moderation is handled, to how we communicate with the community.
Our mission is to:
promote responsible adoption and ownership
protect cats from neglect, misinformation, and exploitation
support rescues, vets, and ethical practices across Ireland
provide clear, accurate, and accessible guidance
empower the community to report concerns without fear or conflict
rescue adoption listings are never locked behind payment
moderation exists to protect, not punish
reports are reviewed carefully and fairly
education is treated as a core feature, not an extra
We are realistic about our role. Cats.ie does not replace veterinarians, inspectors, or authorities — but we do accept responsibility for the influence an online platform has. Our aim is simple, but not easy: to raise standards, encourage better choices, and make it easier to do the right thing for cats.
