Our Story

30A Cats/Bridget's Cats of 30A are animal lovers in the Santa Rosa Beach 30A area who have individually spent years wrangling, rehabbing and adopting out cats and kittens. We eventually banded together to create 30A Cats in an effort to make a larger impact on the number of abandoned and feral cats in our community.

We primarily serve South Walton County along the 30A corridor, (Santa Rosa Beach Donut Hole to Inlet Beach Donut Hole). Focused on TNR (trapping, neutering, releasing), finding loving homes for the kittens and cats we rehab, and providing educational resources to the community we serve. We are committed to working with our neighbors, community organizations, and other animal rescue groups.

We welcome volunteers, foster families, and anyone interested in adopting. Self funded, we also appreciate donations.

Sandy is just about ready to find her new Cat Daddy and/or Cat Mama! She is a Maine Coon mix that has had some time trusting. But she now enjoys being held and loves full body rubs! She may not sit on your lap for long but she’s going to be a wonderful companion. We’d like to find a quiet home for her where she can continue to come out of her shell. But you’ll be rewarded with a beautiful and loyal cat that deserves a warm and loving home.

Happily Ever After Summer and Penny!

From their mama!
Summer: is a wild one but loves to curl up in your lap for snuggles. Is a food snob and won’t eat dry treats. Likes to be carried like a baby.

Penny: is a secret fatty! She loves treats. Follows you around like a dog and loves to snuggle.

These 2 girls went to a home that also had 2 girls and they are living the life! Spoiled? You betcha!

Another Happily Ever after! Uni now Luca &
his sibling Wasabi now Bella are living the life and together! We are so happy that they’re together. Originally Uni was promised to another adopter but life changes reversed his course! Because of their personalities we thought these two would benefit from being together and boy did we get That right! Wasabi/Bella has played mama to Little Uni/Luca. He has had trouble gaining weight so he’s been slower to develop but Wasabi/Bella took good care of him! Happily he’s now ready to be fixed and spend the rest of his life playing and being loved by this wonderfully patient family! We’re blessed and thankful for them!
Enjoy your 9 Lives now Bella and Luca!

Before TNR
For more than a century, the American shelter and animal control system has been relying on catching and killing outdoor cats to control their population. This approach continues to fail, and the number of outdoor cats increases despite the millions of vibrant, healthy outdoor cats who are killed each year. Taxpayer money that funds shelters and animal control agencies is wasted on an endless cycle of trapping and killing. Increasingly, the public agrees that the money spent on killing could and should be re-allocated to programs that help animals.
With catch and kill policies, cats are removed from an area in the hopes that the population will never bounce back. But removing cats only creates a vacuum in the environment, where new cats move in to take advantage of available resources. The new cats quickly breed and the cat population rebounds, or even grows. Catch and kill policies are not only cruel and ineffective, they are the antithesis of the compassionate values of the public, which overwhelmingly supports humane, effective policies and programs for cats.

After TNR
Through TNR, adult cats, who have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and eartipped, are returned to their outdoor homes to live out their lives with their feline families. Many of these cats have dedicated caregivers, who provide food and outdoor shelter with their own time and money.
TNR balances the needs and concerns of community cats and the people among whom they live. The fact is people don’t want cats rounded up and killed. When citizens bring a cat to an animal shelter, they do so believing the cat will be safe and cared for, not terrified in a cage for days only to be killed. What the people want are cat populations stabilized through humane methods that bring cat mating behaviors in check so all can live in harmony.
TNR in conjunction with community cat care best practices is the recipe for happier communities in which cats and people peacefully co-exist. Cats Are Community™, and TNR is the best way to help our feline community members!

Watch to the end! 2 cats/2 videos.
Tina and Ina are sweet orange tabby sisters. We’d love to adopt them out together.

The orange tabby loves long naps and snuggles. If you are searching for an orange tabby, or are just curious about this fantastic feline, take a look at these terrific facts.

Most Orange Tabby Cats Are Males.
A whopping 80% of all orange tabby cats are males. Why? - genetics. To produce this beautiful coat -females need two orange genes, as they are linked to the X chromosome—one from each parent—whereas males need only one.1 So, it’s much easier to wind up with a boy.

Orange Tabby Cats Are Very Affectionate
While every cat has a special personality, chances are that an orange cat will be super-loving. They tend to be very docile & social. You’re more likely to pick an orange tabby kitten out of a litter because they’ll come up to you, meowing, purring, and rubbing all over your legs.

Ginger Cats Tend to Be Relaxed
Ginger cats have quite the reputation for being relaxed. Some of them are even borderline lazy, but some can actually be quite energetic and curious, depending on their age and lifestyle. They can make ideal companions, but don’t forget that each ginger cat has their own personality, which will depend on early socialization and life experiences.

Orange Tabbies Have a Variety of Eye Colors
Orange cats can have gold, green, copper, or, less common, blue eyes. Each color provides a beautiful contrast to their fur. While tones can vary slightly between gold and light amber, their eyes stay relatively the same basic shades.

Meet Oli! He was found at the Red Bar in Grayton and whisked off by one of our volunteers! He was bathed and introduced to the family dog and is appreciative of his new life already! He’s headed to a foster and will be ready soon! He’s not afraid of anything and is a little purring machine! He needs to learn the litter box but we’ll start accepting applications for him.

30A Cats introduces Sandy! She’s a beautiful Maine Coon mix and looking for someone who is a cat whisperer!

She’s come a long way from being rescued as a Stallworth community cat but needs someone that is patient and willing to work with her. She is still a bit scared but she doesn’t lash out at me and loves her head and body rubs! I’ve been able to hold her for a short time. She’s quite perplexed - by the fact that she enjoys it so much she purrs and then remembers she should be afraid! So she’ll run off but then sit and stare at you wondering how can this be?!

It’s quite rewarding turning a kitty and since she’s at this stage; we think it won’t take much longer. We’d love to find someone that is willing to work with her so we can continue our work other 30A kittens. Let us know if you’d like to adopt or foster her!
