Operation Aloha Cat Flight #35 sends 500th Cat to Seattle!

July 25, 2023

The last time we had a milestone announcement back in April, our total number of cats flown through Operation Aloha Cat was 400 cats. At the time, Good Cat Network was in operation for roughly 16 months. But, WOAH. It took us just three months to get another 120 cats flown to their forever homes in Seattle and we’re about to send twenty *more* next week! By August 1, our Operation Aloha Cat cat-tally will be at 540. What does this mean? Well, it means that we’ve hit our stride, maximizing the opportunities of the OAC program, ensuring that each

JUNE 2023 RECAP // NEW PARTNERS & COLLABORATORS!

July 23, 2023

We have to admit – June was a wild month. Nearly everyone in the rescue community, including us, happened to be dealing with the most challenging projects, life obstacles and the unfortunate loss of both pets and foster cats. Amidst the chaos though, we had some beautiful successes! Let’s take a moment to reflect on some GOOD news from June First up: Good Cat Network has a new Seattle-based rescue partner: The NOAH Center! Another partner of ours graciously assisted us in our first The NOAH Center transfer (and with many other projects and tasks since our inception!): Feline Friends of Sammamish.

Good Cat Network Donor Spotlight – Gary & Sara

May 2, 2023

Gary and Sara are longtime supporters of many animal welfare groups on Maui and beyond. Not only have they donated financially to Good Cat Network, but Gary has donated quite a bit of his time by means of fostering, transport and special rescue missions. They truly make a great pair: Sara keeps her finger on the pulse of the cat community through her connections and participation in Facebook groups like Maui Cat Coalition, while Gary has exactly zero social media accounts! Through Sara, Gary knows who to help and when, and then spends his leisure time socializing and caring for

Good Cat Network Donor Spotlight: Renee Pictured above with her rescue cat, Orange Boy. Renee has not only been one of our biggest donors and supporters, but she supplied us with the “seed” money to get our first few flights off the ground. This was even before Good Cat Network had a bank account to accept donations! In fact, we opened our bank account with her first donation check. She is a compassionate and generous cat-advocate and makes a mean mango mojito. For those reasons and many more, Renee has the honor of our very first Donor Spotlight! Believe it
