A Compassionate Beginning

Catmandu Lovers was born out of a shared love for felines and a deep-rooted desire to make a difference in the lives of orphaned kittens. The founders, driven by their love for cats and deeply moved by the distressing reality of countless abandoned kittens, felt an urgent call to action.

They united their passion for feline welfare and the pressing need to address this heart-rending issue by establishing Catmandu Lovers. The team conducts educational workshops and provides consulting assistance to help individuals learn how to save the lives of kittens in meaningful ways.
