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 a variety of deserving charities including:
- Caring for Cats Clinic
- Wild Bird Center
- Turtle Hospital
- Shriner’s Children’s Hospital
- Upper Keys United Way
- Matecumbe Historical Trust
- Marvelous Pet Rescue

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

for Cats Clinic call Sharon Mahoney-Ellenwood at 305-852-5549 | 305-664-2012

Casting for Cats announces two new tournaments:
 The “La Siesta Sail/Bone,” a new and never before done tournament, is a two-day event scheduled to kick off on Friday, January 8 and end Sunday January 10. Anglers will have two days to catch as many sailfish and bonefish as they can. “How good are you?” will be the big question of the weekend. More>>
The “Florida Keys Survivor” is a three-day backcountry fishing tournament scheduled for March 11-14, 2010. The tournament will test which team can survive three days of head-to-head fishing in the Florida Keys backcountry. More>> |
