Nonprofit, shelter for cats. Since 1981

Read our humble little story on our new website: http://www.thecatcornerinc.com/who-we-are.html

In 1981, Martha Nicholson purchased an old barber shop at her own expense and opened The Cat Corner in Hampton, Virginia. The Cat Corner is a no-kill, non-profit cat shelter for homeless cats, that has been operated by volunteers since 1981 and is solely funded by donations. Cats are accepted into the shelter as space becomes available and each receives proper medical care, will be spayed/neutered and updated on their shots prior to becoming available for adoption. Adopting families are screened and care is taken to closely match cats and their new families to insure a good fit. It would be unfair to the cat to get attached to a family...only to be brought back to the shelter. We do ask though, if it is not a good fit or there is a change of circumstances and you can no longer provide care for you cat, please bring them back to the Cat Corner and to not take them anywhere else. Please come by and visit the kitties, we are always looking for dedicated volunteers and wonderful forever homes for our kitty residents. Cats know the song in your heart and purr it to you when your memory fails.

If you would like to help us care for our cats and kittens, you can order directly from our wishlist below or buy locally and bring it to our shelter anytime Monday thru Saturday 9 am-2pm. We have updated our wishlist to accommodate availability as well as pricing as best we can during this time 🐾

We are super excited to announce that our “Patches” has found her forever home!😍 Off to create a lifetime of memories with her loving family!

Meet Ashby, 12 YEARS YOUNG & READY FOR HER HAPPILY EVER AFTER!

Do not let her age fool you this girl still has plenty of s***k! Ashby loves getting the zoomies, chasing string and feather toys, and hunting down her toy mice. Sometimes she will even let out a triumphant yowl while carrying on with her "prey," just to make sure everyone knows what an accomplished hunter she is! When she is not showing off her hunting skills, Ashby is a total sweetheart who loves being near her people. She enjoys lots of affection and is always happy to curl up on a warm lap for some quality cuddle time. She can occasionally become a little overstimulated from petting, but she is a polite lady who will let you know when she has had enough and needs a little break while still wanting to stay snuggled up with you.

Bonded Pair Alert 🐱🐱

Meet Teddy!

Teddy is a gorgeous grey fluffy boy with the softest fur that practically begs to be touched! He LOVES being brushed and he is even A-OK with having his nails trimmed. Teddy also takes cleanliness VERY seriously. This boy keeps himself looking his best, and apparently, he believes his humans should meet the same high standards. Do not be surprised if Teddy decides you need a little grooming too! And then there is his voice! Teddy has the cutest little soft, squeaky meow that just adds to his already irresistible personality.

Teddy would do best in a home with his beloved brother Frankie and older children. Teddy and Frankie really are the perfect little package, two nearly identical fluffy brothers with sweet personalities, playful spirits and SO much love to give.
