Did You See? You Helped Save 10K Cats!
On March 16 we adopted our 10,000th kitty! If we weighed all these kitties, they would be about 40 tons – the average weight of a tractor-trailer. Talk about moving some fur! But really, it’s 10,000 lives saved, families made, and hearts melted with nuzzles from a forever friend. Read the whole story on our website.
If We Could Talk to the Animals…
Adult cats only meow at humans, not at other cats. Why? To tell us something we’re not picking up from their body language! Dr. Jennifer Bledsoe-Nix will help you better understand your kitty during our May 7 Cat Communication workshop. Save your seat now.
It’s Raining Kittens

Celebrate 25 Years With Us
Forrest Gump. Friends. Amazon. Justin Bieber. What do we have in common with them? We’re all 25 years old! There will be fun events and activities celebrating our silver anniversary throughout summer so stay tuned to our website and social media!
Spring into Action & Fix Your Feline
By fixing one male cat, the number of unwanted kitties can be reduced by thousands. This quick surgery helps you, your furry friend, and the feline population as a whole so we’re offering a $25 neuter special. Act quick – offer ends April 30. Learn more.
Give Our Helpers a Hand
National Volunteer Week is April 8-12 and it’s a great time for us to say thanks to our amazing volunteers that help with everything from working with our website to cleaning our kitty cages. As a small token of our appreciation, this week we’ll have food for our volunteers and there will even be giveaways. Know someone that volunteers with us? Say thanks!

Easter Plants Mean Poison
Lilies are a beautiful part of the Easter holiday but for your cat, they mean danger. All it takes is one drink of water from a vase of cut lilies for your furry friend to suffer. Learn more about these beautiful but deadly plants.
Other plants to look out for include azaleas, baby’s breath, and daffodils. Here’s a helpful list of plants to look out for so your kitty can stay safe and healthy.
What else can be done to help during Kitten Season? Spay or neuter your furry friends. By reducing the number of kittens born, we can reduce the number of cats euthanized unnecessarily.
