I can't really say too much about this one without running the risk of spoilers. So just jump in! The answer to the meta is a helpful acronym in a crisis.
The easiest way to submit is on Crosshare (and you get instant feedback and unlimited attempts!) But you can also PM me with your submission. Either way, I'll compile a list of those who successfully solve the meta.
First Responders - Online Form
First Responders - PUZ
First Responders - PDF
First Responders - spreadsheet
Kitten
Calico
Persian
Puma
Lion
Nudges are
here.
The solution is
here.

Well, I'm not the first responder (more like the fourth responder), but I did cross the MOAT!

The acronyms have grown since I learned about this stuff, but with help from google, I freed the cat.

Thanks, Ben, for the doable grid and the informative meta. Now, back to your (Complete the Square) MOAT meta !!

I've made a correction to the clue for 26 D which should now read "Mrs. Lund of "Casablanca"."
And, in case this helps, technically the meta answer is an initialism not an acronym.

Cat’s out!
I learn something new with every MEOW … and MOAT, and MMM, and MMMM, and WSJCC, and MGWCC, and MikeyG, and Lexicon D, and Pandora, and … whatever other metas I’m forgetting.
Thanks, Ben!

I really liked this metanism after I stupidly thought it was a totally different one. TFTP!
