Our teenage kittens are all dog lovers!
And they are all needing homes!

All our cats are only $75 each, which includes spay or neuter, vaccines, microchip, flea and worm medication, plus whatever else they’ve needed while they were with us. And if you get a second cat or kitten, it’s only $50 more!
That is such a great value, you can’t get all that stuff done anywhere else for that price!

We have cats and kittens of all ages available, around 170 in the building to choose from, plus more in foster homes.

Meet Alley, our gorgeous brown tabby girl whose name comes from her favorite pastime before rescue—lounging sweetly in the streets and alleys, hoping someone kind would notice her. 💛

Now that she’s safe, this little lady has shown us just how affectionate she truly is. Alley loves people, soaks up every bit of attention she can get, and seems to do wonderfully with other cats too. She’s a gentle, loving soul who just wants to be part of a family.

She’s now spayed, healthy, and officially ready for her forever home—and just in time for Christmas! 🎄✨ While in her foster home, she was caught gazing up at the Christmas tree lights like the little holiday angel she is!

If you’re looking to add a warm, snuggly sweetheart to your home this season, Alley would love to meet you. ❤️🐾

Everyone wants the fluffy kittens. Everyone wants the Siamese kittens. Everyone wants the pretty calicos. But what about the rest?
Every year we get in so many kittens that grow up with us, are overlooked, and then graduate into our free roam rooms because nobody picked them. Some of them are beautiful, some of them are scarred, some of them are shy, some of them are plain, some of them are special needs, some of them have quirks from their previous life.
But they all deserve a loving home. 
Please come meet our many cats and kittens who are looking for homes, and get to know their personalities. Please consider the ones with funny looking eyes. The ones who take a while to warm up to people. The ones who are just plain black or tabby. The ones nobody else picks.
