Ivy Woods Feline Sanctuary

Ivy Woods Feline Sanctuary Ivy Woods is a rural sanctuary for feral cats rescued from the streets of Baltimore City. There are now over 60 cats on the property.

The sanctuary exists primarily due to the generosity of one very hard-working woman. Theresa created this place so that the cats she found on the streets of Baltimore would have a safe place to live and she provided a beautiful piece of farmland near Westminster. We are excited about the future of the Ivy Woods Feline Sanctuary. Our biggest challenges are keeping our kitties in food, clean bedding

and litter. Medical care is very expensive. We are grateful for your donations, well-wishes, support and "likes".

It is with very much sadness we have to write this very sad update - today we lost our beloved MJ 🥲🥲🥲
We observed him breathing very heavily on Sunday and we got him in to be seen today. X - Ray showed his lungs very full of fluid …due to a tumor in his chest. He would have begun to suffer very soon literally days - even though you can see him eating on the video…
Him eating on Sunday made me hopefull that he had a treatable condition but unfortunately it was not the case🥲
Rest in Peace our precius MJ🌈
We will miss you terribly 🥲
And feeling very sad for your buddy Jack… how he is going to take it not seeing his buddy. Very sad day today

I didn’t know that Bug was a LAP cat! 💖😻
Since his preference is to be an outdoor kitty at Ivy Woods Feline Sanctuary he doesn’t get a chance to do this very often.

One of the most rewarding moments for volunteer is seeing kitties dry and warm with complete opposite weather outside.

Our Story

Ivy Woods is a rural sanctuary for feral cats rescued from the streets of Baltimore City and the surrounding suburbs. The sanctuary exists primarily due to the generosity of one very hard-working woman. Theresa created this place so that the cats she found on the streets of Baltimore would have a safe place to live. She provided a beautiful piece of farmland near Westminster. There are now approximately 100 cats thriving on the property. We are excited about the future of the Ivy Woods Feline Sanctuary. Our focus is to continue to provide a home for unadoptable cats, while partnering with area non-profits to find our adoptables loving family homes. Our biggest challenges are keeping our kitties in food, clean bedding and litter. As we take a lot of the hard-luck cases, medical care is very expensive. We are grateful for your donations, well-wishes, support and "likes".

An update: Our dear Theresa is now a volunteer. She still is very actively involved with Ivy Woods Sanctuary, but she chose to semi-retire as Sanctuary Caretaker, and is no longer on our Board of Directors. The new owner of the Ivy Woods Feline Sanctuary is Lana Finn Jacoby. Since Lana has a full time job, we have to rely on the services of live-in Caretakers.

The mission of Ivy Woods Feline Sanctuary remains the same: it is to provide a safe, caring haven for feral, stray and displaced cats for life. Our facility has a large enclosed area with barns and shelters where the cats can roam freely and safely. All cats are neutered/spayed, tested for FIV/FeLV Leukemia, and given shots. Veterinary care is provided to all cats as needed and a care provider/facilities manager lives on site.
