OUR MISSION is to try to make people aware of the importance of picking the animal that is right for you and then doing right to that animal for the rest of its life. Getting the message out about the importance of spaying and neutering is extremely important to us. We are aware that there are many misconceptions about felines and we do our best to clear some of those up.
When an animal comes into our care we do our best to make them feel secure and assess their health to see if immediate medical care is needed. They are tested for serious/contagious disease, wormed, micro-chipped, altered and vaccinated. The next step is of course waiting for adoption. In some cases, the wait is very long. Ultimately, the perfect match comes along and off they go. So many of our adopters come back with pictures or heartwarming stories of their new lives.
We are currently looking for dependable individuals that are willing to give about one hour a week to volunteer for cage attendants, transportation, vet visits, assist on adoption days or foster. There is no reason why any one ever has to be bored. Volunteerism is a win/win situation and one of the most fulfilling activities you can participate in.
We reserve the right to refuse any application that we feel for whatever reason is not going to be a good match. We also reserve the right to not have to disclose the reason.

All of our pets are tested for FE-LK-FIV, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped and ( if old enough ) spayed and neutered before adoption.. Each of them is properly socialized and we take pride in getting them ready for their new life in a forever home. Due to the economic downturn we have been overwhelmed with strays and turn-ins. There are some wonderful animals available. It is a wonderful feeling to give a homeless cat or dog a home. We will work with you to let you visit with all of them, to be able to pick the one that will be a good match.
