Submission declined on 15 May 2026 by Tarlby (talk). This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for organizations and companies. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that: provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, excluding routine coverage like product launches, staff appointments, or financial reports and listings in databases or listicles; are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight; are independent: not connected to the subject, such as press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content. Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia. This draft appears to contain text generated by a large language model (such as ChatGPT). You cannot use LLMs to generate article content. LLM-generated pages with certain obvious signs of being machine generated may be deleted without notice. These tools are prone to specific issues that violate our policies: hallucinations: they often invent false information and cite non-existent references. unencyclopedic tone: they tend to be vague, promotional, or essay-like, rather than neutral and factual. copyright issues: they may closely paraphrase existing text, leading to copyright violations. Instead, only summarize in your own words a range of independent, reliable, published sources that discuss the subject. See the advice page on large language models for more information. If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window. If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.

Feline Guardians Without Borders (commonly known as Feline Guardians) is an international, decentralized animal welfare advocacy network focused on identifying and combating online networks that produce and distribute videos depicting the torture and killing of cats.^[1] The organization emerged in the early 2020s in response to the growth of online “cat torture rings” operating across social media platforms and encrypted messaging services.^{[2][circular reference]}

Feline Guardians states that its mission is to document, expose, and disrupt organized networks engaged in animal cruelty, while advocating for stronger legal protections for animals internationally.^[1] Activities described by the organization include collecting and analyzing visual evidence, identifying alleged perpetrators, reporting cases to authorities, and coordinating public awareness campaigns.^[1]

Members of the network have also conducted online investigations, including infiltrating abuse groups and tracing individuals involved in producing or distributing violent content.^[2] The organization has organized protests and demonstrations in multiple countries, including events outside embassies and consulates.^[2]

Investigations by journalists and advocacy groups have documented organized online communities in which participants share, sell, and commission videos of extreme animal cruelty.^[3] Reports describe cats and kittens being subjected to prolonged abuse, including electrocution, drowning, starvation, and other forms of intentional harm, often filmed and distributed for entertainment or profit.^[3][2]

According to reporting citing Feline Guardians, new videos may be uploaded frequently within these networks, with participants competing to produce increasingly severe acts of cruelty and, in some cases, accepting payment to create customized abuse videos.^[4] Investigations have also identified instances in which individuals sought to obtain cats through adoption channels for the purpose of torture.^[4]

Media reports have described these networks as global in scope, with participants across multiple countries and some groups numbering in the hundreds or thousands of members who exchange graphic content.^[4][3]

Feline Guardians coordinates international advocacy efforts, including protests, petitions, and outreach to governments, technology companies, and law enforcement agencies.^[5] Demonstrations linked to the organization have taken place in cities across North America, Europe, and Asia.^[2]

The organization has called for stronger enforcement of animal cruelty laws, as well as greater accountability for online platforms hosting or facilitating the distribution of violent content.^[6]

Feline Guardians describes itself as a decentralized, volunteer-driven network with regional groups operating across dozens of countries.^[1] Activities are coordinated primarily through online platforms, with local organizers leading advocacy efforts in their respective regions.^[7]
