3. Apparently it's a viral hoax.

The story about Steven Tyler launching a $1 million cat sanctuary is a viral hoax, not a true news event. While he has supported animal welfare in the past and fans have donated to cat rescues in his name, there is no evidence of him starting a new cat rescue sanctuary. His primary philanthropic focus is Janie's Fund, which helps abused and neglected girls.

Viral Hoax:
Reports and social media posts claiming Steven Tyler is building a $1 million cat rescue sanctuary are false. These posts often use language and structure typical of clickbait and viral hoaxes.
