ABOUT US
Who we are
The Port of Los Angeles Cat Alliance Team (POLACAT) was formed in 2021 and is entirely run by a dedicated group of volunteers. All expenses for supplies and veterinary services are covered by team members and donations. POLACAT is a non-profit 501c4 that partners with other non-profits, local shelters and private parties to improve conditions for all cats at the Port. While some cats have lived their whole lives on the streets of the Port, many have been abandoned or 'dumped' due to illness, injury, pregnancy or simply because owners could no longer care for them. Our team provides regular care, coordinates spay-neuter services, transports sick and injured animals for treatment, and rehomes as many cats and kittens as we can. We value the support of our local law enforcement agencies, our community and local businesses without whom we could not succeed.
