About Us
Meowmbai helps residents document the community cats who share their neighbourhoods.
Each approved photo sighting becomes part of a public map, giving every documented cat a profile and helping people understand where cats live, who looks after them, and when a cat may need help.
How it works
- SpotUpload a photo, name the cat if you know them, and drop a pin.
- ReviewEvery sighting is moderated before it appears publicly.
- MapThe cat joins the city's map, and the next person can add a sighting.
Meowmbai is a documentation project, not an animal rescue or emergency service, and its records are not an exhaustive census. For an injured animal or urgent danger, contact a local veterinarian or animal-welfare organisation first.
