I am an independent rescuer doing what I can to help the homeless cats in my community. I am active in TNR (trap-neuter-return) but whenever I encounter a friendly kitty or abandoned house cat, I do whatever it takes to help them find a forever home! I have rescued and placed dozens of cats and kittens in happy foster and forever homes. I often encounter abandoned house cats who need extra TLC, but I never give up on them. Fosters are always needed! Donations welcome and very much appreciated.

Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
