CATS Cradle Shelter is a Non-Profit 501(c)3 no-kill shelter for rescued cats and kittens. Our residents live in colonies of 6-10 cats in individual room units based on compatibility. They are cared for by a core group of shelter volunteers. Young kittens are frequently fostered in private homes where they get 24 hr care. Kittens do not reside in the shelter until they are at least 16 weeks of age,

however they can be seen by potential adopters on Saturdays during our open house from noon - 5pm when the foster parents bring them to the shelter for the day. CATS Cradle is currently funded 100% by donations and adoption fees. If you are looking for a way to help out please contact us at 701-356-7877 for details. Donations are always welcome and can be facilitated through Paypal by using the donate button.

💕 Seeking: Retirement Home & Professional Treat-Giver and Cuddle Expert 💕

My name is Chococat, and at 14 years young, I've mastered the art of relaxation.

My hobbies include napping in the softest bed available, accepting gentle head scratches, giving the cutest look when treats present themselves, and being reminded that I'm beautiful (which, frankly, is just stating facts). I'm a sweet, gentle soul looking for a quiet home where I can spend my golden years surrounded by comfort, kindness, and maybe a sunny spot by the window.

I won't ask for much, I promise. Just a cozy bed, a loving human, and a peaceful place to call home. In return, I'll provide soft purrs, quiet companionship, and the special kind of love that only a senior kitty can give.

No one knows exactly how much time we get with the ones we love and loving a senior cat might feel scary, but it's so worth it. What we do know is that Chococat deserves to spend whatever time she has left cherished, spoiled, and adored. Could you be the person who gives this lovely lady the retirement she deserves?

🐾 14 years old
🐾 Gentle and affectionate
🐾 Loves cozy beds and long naps
🐾 Prefers a calm, quiet environment

Come meet Chococat and discover how much love can fit into one sweet little cat.

🚨 Experienced Foster Needed 🚨

We are looking for an experienced foster for 3 spicy little kittens, approximately 7-8 weeks old, who need socialization and patience to help them learn that people can be trusted.

These babies are scared, not mean, and with the right environment, time, and dedication, they will come around beautifully. They need a calm home, consistency, and someone who understands shy or semi-feral kittens.

If you are already approved to foster with us and have room in your heart and your home to help these little ones, please text 701-367-1511.

Please share to help us find the perfect foster match for these babies. ❤️

Come see us and all our friends at Open House today Tuesday 5/26 from 3pm - 6pm at Cats Cradle!!

🖤🤍 Meet Chococat & Mermaid 🤍🖤
Two gorgeous black-and-white girls looking for soft beds, sunny windows, and someone to love them exactly as they are.

✨ Chococat, 14: Retired. Refined. Professional napper. Ready to live the rest of her life in luxury.
Her ideal day includes cozy blankets, gentle head scratches, and being reminded she’s the prettiest girl in the room. She’s sweet, calm, and ready to spend her golden years in peace and comfort.

✨ Mermaid, 5: Soft as a cloud with a tiny black nose and a heart full of love. She’s happiest lounging beside you on the couch, collecting affection, toys, and the occasional special treat (but not too many, she's wanting to watch her figure). She’s friendly, gentle, and absolutely stunning.

💌 About us: • Big fans of comfy beds
• Quiet companionship experts
• Looking for a calm home with lots of love
• We came to the shelter together but are purrfectly okay to set out on our own adventures.

If your dream roommate situation includes purring, cuddles, and matching black-and-white elegance… we may be your girls. 🐾

Follow-up Friday:

***ADOPTED***

Although we were closed for part of the month of April, we still were able to re-home many sweet felines to their “fur”ever homes. Thanks to everyone who supports our mission. 😻

UPDATE: Foster FOUND

These three scared little kittens are looking for a foster home where they can learn that people are safe and loving. They are approximately 8–9 weeks old and were recently live trapped.

Don’t let their fearful behavior fool you… with the right environment, patience, and dedicated socialization, they should come around quickly. They do not swat or bite; they are simply scared and unsure right now.

What they really need is some good old-fashioned blanket therapy, quiet time, gentle handling, and a foster willing to help them build confidence and trust.

Watching frightened kittens blossom into affectionate companions is one of the most rewarding parts of fostering. If you can help give these babies a safe place to decompress and learn to love, please reach out by texting 701-367-1511.
