About
Founded in 2012, Loviisan Kissatalo is a non-profit association based in Kuggom, Finland working on animal welfare.
Loviisan Kissatalo ry is a volunteer-run animal welfare association founded in 2012 in Loviisa, Finland. It receives, cares for and rehomes found and stray cats, and also takes in other small companion animals on behalf of the City of Loviisa and the Municipality of Lapinjärvi. The association runs a foster home programme for animals that need temporary care, a cat sponsorship scheme, and volunteer shifts for feeding, medical care and socialisation of cats. Adoptable cats are typically neutered, health-checked and microchipped before rehoming, and an adoption fee applies. Funding comes mainly from donations, membership fees and in-kind gifts. The association is a member of SEY, the Finnish animal welfare umbrella body, and its work is centred on the Loviisa and Lapinjärvi area.
