Adoption program

Our Adoption program works with adult, senior, geriatric, and special needs cats who need more time and attention than typical shelters can provide. Thanks to the support of the local community, our cats are mainly housed in a relaxed cage-free environment, that is equipped with lots of safe places to rest and sleep. They have regular human interactions, play with colorful toys, and roam around the outside cat enclosure. Goals: To give second chances to local, adult cats and to take the time to find them the right forever homes. • To provide a safe and protected environment for special needs cats and those requiring additional attention. • To provide, temporary and permanent places of refuges through our network of foster homes, adoption partners, and cat sanctuaries. Where rescued cats can be medically treated, emotionally healed, and behaviorally observed to be given a second chance at finding they're forever ever homes. The cats are also kept in foster homes, and for short periods in a pet store. We have several ways to find our cats new homes: Adopt out cats from Petfinder, Facebook, and our website, as well as partner with Petsense and adopt out cats through the Chehalis store in Washington state and from our private cat rooms.·

Education is the key to keeping more pets with there beloved family. We want to convey to the community, that cats enrich our lives, need attention, stimulation, socialization, and steady relationships. Cat guardianship is a lifelong commitment; most cat issues are fixable with the right tools and information. Goals: • To provide the community with the educational tools that will allow them to be better, more aware, and more responsible cat guardians. • To encourage the members of our community to consider adoption, which will help to keep more cats alive and out of shelters. This is how we do it:- Education tabling at community events- Handouts and posters on cat-related topics - Online resources through our website and facebook page.
