Persian & Himalayan Cat Rescue of Northern California



SPECIAL MESSAGE TO OUR FRIENDS:  As a rescue, our biggest priority is to prevent need for rescue in the first place. Sometimes all that takes is a financial lifeline, e.g. paying a big vet bill so a cat can stay in her home. We know times have been especially tough lately. If you find yourself needing help with your cat’s needs, please call us at 925-838-1838.  Thanks to the generosity of friends like you, we are here to help.

Happy Holidays! We know many of you like to send donations this time of year, and that is wonderful. If that doesn’t work for you this year, that is absolutely OK – we just truly appreciate your friendship! If you do wish to donate, here are options:

2025 PHCR Holiday Letter

Since 1990, as a dedicated group of volunteers, it has been our mission to rescue and re-home Persian cats from shelters, vets and owners who need help re-homing their pets.

Adopted cats must be indoors only, and no de-clawing!
