We are a small private rescue in Minnesota and Wisconsin devoted to helping Persians and Himalayans in need of re-homing.
We operate solely on the financial and physical support of our direct volunteers.
Minnkota Persian Rescue is run entirely by volunteer foster homes. We have foster homes in Wisconsin and Minnesota. We do not have a physical shelter location.
Foster homes are desperately needed in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Call or email today if you can help save a life!

All cats listed below are spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations and feline leukemia/FIV negative unless otherwise noted.
Standard adoption fee is $150. Adoption fees go towards the rehabilitation and foster care of the next rescued cats. Many desperately need our help.
Most of our rescue cats are adopted before needing to be placed on Adoption sites like Petfinder. Many start as foster families (below) and adopt the cat they're fostering. If you are looking to adopt a Persian, contact us and we will add you to our database of potential adopters.
