Ten Lives (Cat Centre)

About Ten Lives (Cat Centre)

Ten Lives is the largest dedicated cat shelter in Tasmania. We are a voluntary, not-for-profit organisation dedicated to caring for and rehoming the unwanted cats and kittens of Southern Tasmania, improving feline welfare in Tasmania and encouraging responsible cat ownership.

The Centre’s primary function is to re-house unwanted owned, stray and feral cats. Thousands of cats pass through the center each year and in kitten season it’s one every 30 minutes during our seven day a week operation. We are a G2Z (Getting to Zero Euthanasia) Centre, which means we re-home 100% of rehomable cats.

We accept all lost, stray, unwanted and feral cats and don’t charge a fee for our services, however gratefully accept donations as we receive no government funding. All our money comes from the community through donations, bequests, membership and sponsorship as well as from income from our retail and boarding operations.
