Because we take being a "safe for life" shelter very seriously, each cat who comes into our care is guaranteed sanctuary with us if they are not adopted. Many cats whom we have rescued with extensive medical issues, seniors, or simply ones who have been passed over for whatever reason have remained in our shelter and become "sanctuary cats", meaning that they will never be adopted and have a home with us until they become too old or ill to have a quality life. It is then and only then that our staff and veterinarian make the decision to put a cat to sleep - to end suffering. We promise each cat who comes to us the right to live out their days in comfort, health, and happiness here, and we take that promise very seriously.

Of course, the care of these cats is expensive and the expense grows as the cats age or need specialized care. Sponsors help us plan for the future and improve the lives of our resident kitties.

Many of our sanctuary cats are requiring dental work in their golden years. Please consider sponsoring a sanctuary cat.
