About Us

C.A.T.S. maintains a full adoption shelter. As a full adoption shelter, we accept only adoptable animals: those to whom we can make a life-long commitment for placement. Adoptable means there are no signs of a behavioral or temperamental defect that could pose a health or safety risk, and no visible signs of disease or injury. Prior to acceptance, our staff evaluates each cat / kitten to ensure that it meets these criteria. Once the cat is accepted, a commitment is made to keep the animal until it is placed into a new home, as long as the animal remains adoptable. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us by phone or e-mail, or stop by the shelter. We hope that you enjoy your visit!
 

A home without a cat, and a well-fed, well-petted and
properly revered cat, may be a perfect home, perhaps;
but how can it prove its title? -Mark Twain

 

Our mission is to rescue the forgotten cats and kittens. Those abandoned and left trying to make it on their own in a world much too cruel. They battle hunger, disease, weather, predators, of which the scariest can be the human predator. C.A.T.S. can provide a chance at a better life.

As a part of our goal to help this situation, no cat leaves our shelter until it has been spayed or neutered. All of our cats are given the special care they deserve, including medical and behavior checks, testing for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and Feline Leukemia (FELV), vaccinated, treated against parasites, given an anti-fungal bath and micro chipped. They then stay at the shelter until adopted. Here they have a chance to rest and become reacquainted with loving humans. Our volunteers spend hours with these cats until they adopted into a loving home. In 2006, we found new, loving homes for 637 cats and kittens!
