Adopt-a-Cat is a non-profit, NO KILL cat shelter housing more than 200 cats.
We provide, if needed, a permanent home for all cats in our care, even the unadoptable cats.
We tests all cats for Feline Leukemia and place positive cats in a separate room where they can enjoy their natural life in peace. We spay or neuter and vaccinate all cats.
The shelter was founded in 1979 by Lori Oswald, Madeline Cibil, Jerilee Gay, Tim Metcalf, Rev. Richard R. Gay, and Robert E. Mintz.
Today the shelter is staffed by over 15 active volunteers and funded exclusively by donations.
Through the years, the Adopt-a-Cat shelter has found loving homes for over 1000 homeless cats!
All cats are living totally free in the shelter and cages are used only for the newcomers' quarantine.
