My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Lake came to the refuge from a high-kill shelter and is still adjusting to life at the refuge. Lake is an all black-kitty with a small burst of white on her chest. She would love nothing more than to find a peaceful, quiet home where she can relax and enjoy being loved by you, so come meet this sweet girl soon! Approx. DOB: 06/15/2016

If interested in adopting from the Goathouse Refuge, please plan to take the following steps required in our adoption process:
1. Come for a Visit: No appointment necessary: just drop by during our normal visiting hours of noon-3 PM. We're open seven days a week, including holidays, though we recommend that you come on the weekend if possible, as we have more volunteers available to assist.
2. Complete our online application: Visit our website (click link above or go to www.goathouserefuge.org under the 'adopt' tab).
3. Home Visit: All adoption applications will be reviewed by the refuge staff, and if the applicant seems to be a good fit for the cat(s) of interest, the refuge will contact the interested party to set up a home visit. Only after a representative of the refuge conducts a home visit will the refuge then consider continuing with the adoption process.

More about this rescue

Siglinda Scarpa is a potter and a sculpter who owns 3 acres of fenced-in property in which she houses up to 258 homeless cats.The Refuge is a sanctuary for these cats, who never have to leave, but if they are adoptable, the cats are posted on our website and taken to adoption events in the community. The more cats that we find homes for, the more cats we can rescue.
