Casting for Cats
is quickly becoming the Florida Keys biggest and best ladies backcountry fishing tournament. The first Casting for Cats tournament was held in 2001 and raised enough money to spay/neuter over 100 cats. What began six years ago as a tournament for fun, fishing and friendship is now a major fund raiser to help control the feral cat population in the Upper Keys. One hundred percent of the tournament proceeds benefit Caring for Cats—a low-cost, volunteer spay/neuter clinic in Islamorada responsible for the spay/neuter of over 2000 cats and has found loving homes for over 600 cats.

About Us
Casting for Cats is a volunteer group who freely give their time and support for the feral cats of the Upper Keys. We are a non-profit charity so all the money raised stays in the Upper Keys for the spay/neuter clinic and caring for feral cats. If you would like to join our volunteer group or need information on “Free Vouchers” for the spaying/neutering of any cat at the Caring for Cats Clinic contact Sharon Mahoney-Ellenwood at 305-852-5549 | 305-664-2012 or Margie Schwartz at 305-393-1333.
