MAUI'S OLI OLI KIDS = COMMUNITY CAT heroes!

Empowering the next generation

The amazing team at the Oli Oli Club came through for Save Maui Cats in a big way.  These incredible kids and their selfless leader, Smita Martinez, created a cat food drive for us and loaded our car with essential supplies and filled our hearts with great gratitude and joy.  And they even gave us a hand-made card!


From the tips of our whiskers to the ends of our tails, we send our heartfelt thanks to this phenomenal group for their kindness, compassion and sacrifices toward our enduring mission to help Save Maui Cats.

    The Oli Oli Club

    (from their website) 


    The ‘Oli ‘Oli Club was formed to provide a platform for students to build character and confidence through creativity, self-reflection, and service learning. Our goal is for each member to have a positive, enriching, and fun learning experience.  


    We host free keiki events at South Maui Gardens with activities and creative projects designed to foster stronger connections to themselves, their families, and their community.

    Save Maui Cats could not have launched our website, created our video or fed and fixed our island's homeless, hungry and forgotten cats without the additional help of these fine folks. They shared their extraordinary talent and their generous hearts. We are eternally grateful.

    We are pleased that through their Green Grants Program they are able to support environmental nonprofits - made up of people who truly want to make a positive difference on Maui. We at Save Maui Cats are profoundly grateful for their recognition and support and will endeavor to continue to make them proud. Because of their generosity, we will be able to continue our mission by helping to humanely reduce the number of unwanted new cats on Maui, while maintaining the lives of healthy fixed cats island-wide.

    ASSERT Team Tactical / Drone Rescue

    ASSERT DISASTER ANIMAL RESCUE. They've rescued animals from Ukraine (twice) and  from both the Paradise and Camp fires in California. 


    Assert's volunteers are trained to rescue pets, livestock, native and exotic animals and act in accordance with all governing agencies while maintaining safety standards for all. Unfortunately they were not permitted into the Burn Zones while helping Save Maui Cats, but that didn't deter them. Instead they humanely live-trapped and saved dozen's of cats  on the fire's perimeter, many of whom suffered from burns, smoke inhalation, and dehydration. These cats and kittens would not have survived without Assert's help.


    And if that's not enough, they built (4) cat enclosures to make room for al those cats to rest and recuperate until we can find safe alternatives for them.  We can't say enough about Ryan and his team and are awed and humbled by their support and true love for animals.

    Doris Day Animal Foundation (Grant)

    Thanks to a generous grant provided by the

     Doris Day Animal Foundation, we are able to continue to save the lives of cats on Maui

     - while reducing overpopulation through 

    our TNRM efforts. 

    This incredible organization came through for us during the Maui fires and because of them, we have been able to provide necessary care 

    for many of Maui's burned and fire-affected kitties. They thank you and so do we.

    Thank you Doris Day!!

    Love our logo? So do we! We searched high and low for an artist who's work could tell our story. We finally found illustrator Mike Paul online and knew he was the artist for us! View more of Mike's artwork at:  mikepaulart.com

    Hawai'i Animal Kuleana Alliance (HAKA)

    Pūlama i nā mea ola mai uka a i kai.
    Protecting all creatures from mauka to makai.


    Although located on the big island of Hawaii, HAKA immediately jumped in to help during the August 2023 fires. Despite also being  a small animal rescue nonprofit, they funded their team's own transportation and generously shared their resources with us.  They helped us safely and successfully rescue animals from the fires that otherwise wouldn't have stood a chance.  The HAKA team are lifesavers in every sense of the word and we - and the animals of Maui  - owe them an enormous debt of gratitude.

    The good people of Maui

    Many Maui residents and business owners  have reached out and helped our cause by offering to feed cats in their community. Others came forward to adopt a lifelong friend. Thank you to everyone who continues to support us!

    We need more help, please!

    For information on how you can support our ongoing efforts to care for and feed the island's homeless, hungry and forgotten cats, please visit our More Ways to Help page or consider volunteering with us. We'd love to meet you and have opportunities to fit every schedule.
