CAT’s mission is to work with our community to save the lives of homeless, sick and injured cats and kittens by offering shelter, adoption, foster, hospice, and veterinary services to end needless feline euthanasia in our community.
Is your house is a little too quiet; the rooms too empty?
Maybe you miss the sound of young ones bounding down the hall or clamoring for your attention?
We can help you fill that empty-nest with foster kittens or cats.
“Fostering has turned out to be one of the most rewarding and satisfying things I’ve done,” states CAT volunteer, Barbara Pirk (60+). “I’ve fostered over 100 kittens and am looking forward to the next 100!”
You provide them with a temporary home while they grow or heal. Shower them with love and attention so they will blossom into wonderful pets. Then CAT finds each one of them a great home.
“Fostering is perfect for those who enjoy having pets for short periods of time – it can fit around trips, surgeries, and visits from out-of-town guests,” comments Anne Jacobs (74). “I’ve foster over 175 cats and kittens over the years. I love it and continue to foster kittens in addition to caring for a long-term foster senior cat.”
Fostering with CAT:
•Provides a safe, nurturing environment for mother cats to raise their kittens
•Socializes shy or timid cats/kittens
•Allows sick or injured cats/kittens to heal in a relaxing environment
•Corrects behavioral issues to help a cat become even more adoptable
CAT will provide you with all the training, a “baby” bag full of necessities, and a knowledgeable mentor to help you every step of the way. You provide the love.
John Carradine (65) shares that helping the cats and kittens is more than fun and purrs: “CAT is a wonderful place that provides a chance for cats and kittens to grow into, well, our favorite pets. At the same time it offers me, and other volunteers, a high degree of satisfaction knowing we’ve been instrumental in helping some of God’s creatures.”

Anne warns, “It’s easy to foster but hard to say goodbye to them.”
