All Programs

We have approximately 100 cats and kittens of all colors, ages, and personalities looking for their forever homes at any given time. We take our adoption process very seriously because our goal is not to adopt out the highest number of cats, but to place each cat in a loving home where he or she will live for his or her entire life. Our adoption counselors are experienced matchmakers, ready to suggest candidates for your ideal lifetime companion. They will also provide information to you on a variety of topics, such as nail trimming techniques, proper ways to dispense medication to a cat, and introducing your new cat to your home.

This program helps children improve their reading skills by offering them a quiet space to read their favorite books out loud to the shelter residents. The cats provide a willing audience that doesn't judge how well the child reads, and the child gains confidence and reading strength.
