My story

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

Meet Whitney – A Gentle Soul Waiting for Her Forever Home Whitney is a stunning black beauty with soulful eyes and a heart full of quiet love. At 3.5 years old, she has spent over two years in our care, waiting patiently for someone to see the gentle, affectionate spirit she truly is. Whitney came to us from a local shelter, a devoted young mother with four tiny newborns. She raised them with love and care—and now, she deserves a peaceful, loving home of her own. This sweet girl adores attention and will happily settle into your lap for snuggles and companionship. She’s laid-back, gentle, and finds joy in the simple things: a soft toy, a warm sunny window, or just being near her person. Whitney does have a few special needs—she requires prescription food that costs around $50 a month. She also prefers to be the only cat in the home and is not a fan of loud or crowded environments (including adoption events). But for the right person, she will be a loyal and loving companion. Whitney is indoor only, and declawing is strictly prohibited by contract. She’s not asking for much—just a soft place to land, a window to watch the world, and someone to love her back. If you’re looking for a cat who’s already past the chaos of kittenhood and ready to bring quiet joy to your life, Whitney may be the one you’ve been waiting for. Could you be her forever?May 16, 2025, 3:47 pm

More about this rescue

Who do we serve?

The Cenla Cat Project (CCP) serves the central Louisiana region (Cenla) residents and homeless felines.

Why are we needed?

There are several humane societies in the Cenla area, but none of them emphasize the feline population. We will work with the homeless feline population, as well as cats that are owned and unaltered. These unaltered feline perpetuate the exponential growth of the feline population. Residents complain about free roaming cats. The government response is to trap and kill these homeless cats.

An organization is needed for the following reasons:
*To educate people about the importance of sterilization of the cats and help them to realize that Trap Neuter Release (TNR) of feral colonies can be an asset (ie. rodent control, etc.) to the community.
*To place socialized cats into homes through adoption.
*To place feral felines as “barn” cats in rural / industrial areas or with the cooperation of the human community return to community colonies.
*To assist people in having felines altered and feline maintenance.
*To educate young people in the care of felines and the importance of sterilization.

What is our mission?

CCP's mission is to be part of the solution of feline overpopulation and homelessness in Cenla. Our goal is to reduce the feline overpopulation and homelessness in central Louisiana by rescuing homeless felines and providing sterilization, medical care and adoption services. It is also our goal to serve the residents of Cenla by providing humane education about feline care and encouraging the sterilization of their homed felines.

What are our programs?

Programs include feline adoption, education on care and importance of population control, working with communities / neighborhoods to setup TNR programs.

Who do we work with?

*Local veterinarians and low cost sterilization clinics
*Volunteer fosters
*Local Future Farmers of America and 4-H members
*Local governmental animal shelter

What resources do we need?

*Veterinary partners to alter, administer rabies and assist with providing health care to sick and injured cats
*Volunteers to foster, transport cats to Veterinary appointments, assist/run adoption events
*Support of the community with donations of money, food, cleaning supplies, etc.
*Local news media to promote the mission of CCP
*Social Media

What do we want to accomplish?

*Reduce the number of homeless cats and shelter cats without the use of euthanasia, through sterilization and adoption placement.
*Create a cat adoption center where a community member may come to interact with cats and adopt.
*Assist the community with low cost sterilization of their cats.
*Encourage and assist the community members to responsibly re-home unwanted cats and kittens rather than releasing them to the outdoors.
