Mission

We are a humane organization dedicated to saving the lives of cats and kittens through rescue rehabilitation and adoption- allowing every cat to experience safety comfort and individualized care from neonatal kittens to senior cats with severe medical challenges. We often take in special needs cats that would be otherwise be euthanized in shelters. Through our spay neuter and Trap-Neuter-Return TNR programs we actively work to reduce overpopulation and improve the welfare of community cats in underserved communities. Mission Meow is also deeply committed to community outreach and education. We help residents with food support medical guidance and behavioral resources so cats can remain in their homes instead of being surrendered. Our approach is collaborative and compassionate.

Each tax year counts once: when a return was amended, only the latest return for that period is used below (superseded returns stay listed, greyed, under Finances).

Who gave

Contributor names are not public for this form type.

Public charities filing Form 990 or 990-EZ report large donors on Schedule B, but the IRS withholds their names and addresses from public copies. Private foundations (990-PF) are different: their contributors are public.

Finances

Newest first. Each filing: its name on one row, its figures on the row beneath. Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

Where the money went

Every expense line on each return, biggest first: Form 990 Part IX (with its program, management and fundraising columns), 990-EZ Part I, or 990-PF Part I. Event marks lines the organization itself describes as events. “Events” in each summary adds those lines, conferences and meetings, and the direct costs of fundraising events. Unusual is not the same as improper. Many of these patterns have ordinary explanations. Check the filing.
