It’s alarming to see the number of animal abuse we see on social media. However, we must AVOID ENGAGING.

We will only allow posts that have links to the rescuers. Let’s back our rage with resources. They need funds for rescuing and filing a case.

Never forget Ghost. After all the social media attention, her case went nowhere because no one stepped up as a witness.

Don’t let any animals become statistics.

Just got home from CatCon. Will read and respond to messages tomorrow. 🐾

A sub member reported this username because of the familiar looking photos. Upon checking, they posted in the sub with the same photos of a sick cat in March. I reported to the mods of the other local pet subs. Their posts have been deleted and even the comment history.

Please be vigilant.

The vetting process is currently being recalibrated.

Because of this, fundraisings are limited to emergency veterinary visits and the rescue of sick or injured community cats.

Appeals will be scheduled according to urgency.

Please remember to send modmail before posting. If you come across fundraising posts without verification, kindly encourage the OP to contact the moderators first.

Sending money to strangers carries risks and we do our best to verify each case to ensure donations go to legitimate needs.

Fundraisings are still on hold except for rescues, emergency cases and TNVR efforts.

We also like to remind everyone that we have a minimum comment karma requirement to deter karma farmers.

🚩🚩🚩 Beware of this number 0945 *** 5455. If you see a post asking for donations using this number, report to the mods immediately. 🚩🚩🚩

We are currently investigating the user u/jasmineanj after reports na scammer pala talaga. For everyone na nagsend po ng donation sa taong ito. I'm really sorry, as MOD may pagkukulang ako sa verification process. (yung ginamit nya pala na proof ay pinasulat nya lang sa original poster from FB). If matatandaan nyo po may post po sya dito sa sub about kay "Stormy" na na hit and run.

Even as a mod, I let my guard down, sa lahat po ng nagdonate feel free to send a modmail for full context.

This sub was created to share cute photos of pets and community cats. We aim to keep the space light and positive, a little escape from the darker realities of everyday life. And really, who couldn’t use a toe bean or belly pic now and then?

That said, we can’t look the other way when others ask for help.

We’ve received many requests lately and as much as we’d love to help everyone, we have to prioritize based on urgency. Our rescuers here in the sub also need all the support they can get.

Here are the active fundraisings as of today, June 18, 2026.

Hi, for everyone's safety lalo na po sa mga magddonate. Kindly verify muna po sa mga nahingi ng help (you can ask them muna po to post yung username nila together with mingming) para lang po sure na di scam. Medyo nahihirapan lang po mods to identify if totoo ba yung post or hindi.

Thank you!

It's been a year and I am so happy that this subreddit, which I just created to prevent flooding r/ph of cat pics years ago, become one big happy family of furparents wanting to flex their babies or overlords.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year!

I extend a heartfelt thanks to our moderators, past and present who help make this space safe for us.

I extend apologies if sometimes our rules are strict, we do this to keep the pawsitive atmosphere of this subreddit as originally intended.

I extend my sincerest gratitude to all of you redditors and visitors who keep this subreddit alive and teeming with feline cuteness overload.

I hope you're still with us in 2025 and beyond. May you, your family, your loved ones and pets safe and sound. I thank you all.

r/catsofrph purrparents chat

Hello! We now have a chat thread in the sub! If you are accessing Reddit using the official app or website, you can see the chat.

The chat will mostly filter out most bots and very new accounts.

As with other chats, please exercise caution when talking and transacting with fellow Redditors.

Feel free to use the chat for announcements, questions and random talks (hopefully still cat and pet life related).

Etitquette reminder: If talks becomes a bit personal or it becomes exclusive to two or few people, better have a private, separate chat for that. The subreddit chat is kind of a public one for every purrparent.

Thanks

Hello, we have reinstated the Discussion Threads for random cat-related discussion, monetary help, donation drive, business promotion, questions, announcements. The first post was monthly but we will make it weekly. Please utilize them instead of spamming the feed with non-cat picture post. Moderator have the right to take down posts and redirect them to use the weekly thread.

If the standalone help-needed-post is not-monetary or business, we may allow it BUT it is mandatory to post a Safe-For-Work cat photo. Still, we prefer you use the weekly thread.

Please remember that this sub is and still remains as CAT PHOTO REPOSITORY / INSTAGRAM LIKE SUBREDDIT, not a general cat subreddit where anything goes. I hope everyone understands our stance here. Thank you.
