Cat Care Society

Our mission is to be a safe and enriching place for all cats on their journey to a loving home. Approximately 800 cats come into our care each year!
(256)

Cat Care Society is a non-profit, limited-admission cat shelter founded in 1981 to improve the quality of life for cats in need in the Denver metro area. Our unique and free-roaming approach views all cats as worthy, regardless of their age or abilities. We are non-discriminatory in our love for cats and take in cats that may not have a chance anywhere else. This includes cats that have tested pos

itive for FIV or FeLV, or have been diagnosed with chronic health conditions such as diabetes or kidney disease. We pride ourselves in finding these cats loving homes and educating cat owners on the care requirements for cats with special needs. We provide a temporary refuge for cats in need until an appropriate home can be found for each. Veterinary care, premium diet, and human interaction are lovingly provided by dedicated staff and volunteers. As we receive no government funding, Cat Care Society is supported by a number of loyal volunteers, donors, and partners, without whom we could not operate. Our staff and board of directors work together to ensure that every cat receives an enriching environment and the opportunity to find a home where they can flourish.

It's a hot one today. Probably because Sunshine is using all of her power to attract potential adopters to pay her a visit!

This sweet gal is 9 years old, loves crunchy treats, and of course, soaking up the sun! Bring her home today, and you'll never have a cloudy day! ☀️

HELP US HELP CATS!

National Nonprofit Day may have been yesterday, but the mission continues today. We’re just $1,475 away from reaching our $5,000 goal — funds that will go directly toward caring for the cats in our shelter as they wait to be adopted into their next loving home.

Thanks to generous supporters, we've already raised $3,525, but we need your help to close the gap before the end of the day. Could your kindness be the reason another cat finds love?

🐾 Staff Pick: Olive 🐾

Meet Olive, one of our most memorable residents and a personal favorite of our Lead Adoption Counselor, Christina.

Here’s what Christina has to say:
"Olive is my favorite cat not because she's the sweetest cat in the shelter but because of the true chaos she brings to everyone's lives. When Olive first came to Cat Care Society, I gravitated towards her because I love older crusty looking cats who have had a hard go of things. Now that she is healthy and not as crusty anymore, you can tell she feels much better because of the amount of sass and mischief she gets into everyday. I think the chaotic cats often are underrated and just need the right person who is looking for a cat that will make them laugh and have fun. I hope she finds a great home soon!"

If you’re ready for a little chaos in your life, Olive might just be your girl. 💛

Didn't get a chance to adopt at our event on Saturday? No worries, there are plenty more ways to help!

Starting right now, Hill’s Pet Nutrition is matching donations dollar for dollar up to $5,000. Which means your gift can go twice as far to help our cats. But the match only lasts until the $5,000 cap is reached across all participating shelters, so don’t wait!
