Wyatt is a large, handsome tabby with soft, wispy fur, a giant heart, and a résumé that includes overcoming truly impressive odds. When he first arrived at the shelter, Wyatt was dealing with one of the worst eye infections our veterinary team had ever seen (40 years of experience—no small claim to fame). He was uncomfortable, confused, and having a very rough time.
Enter months of dedicated care, gentle burrito-wrapping, daily ointments, and a whole lot of patience. Wyatt took it all like a champ. Today, his eye is well managed and he simply needs a daily antiviral medication to keep everything in check.
And here’s the thing: once you meet Wyatt, the “extra care” part fades into the background. Wyatt is no ordinary cat. He’s big and gorgeous, wonderfully affectionate, and proudly lives the *big ol’ lug* lifestyle. He loves laps (yes, he will try to fit), adores sunny windowsills, and has never met a friend—human or animal—that he didn’t like. He gets along fabulously with other pets and would be thrilled to join whatever cozy crew you’ve got at home.
Wyatt is proof that sometimes the cats who need a tiny bit extra give you so much more in return. If you’re looking for a laid-back, loving companion with a soft coat and an even softer heart, Wyatt is ready to lumber his way right into your life.

1) The first step to meet the cats at Animal House is to email us at AHcatadoption@gmail.com. Be sure to include your full name, age, address, and phone number. We will respond as soon as possible to answer your questions and schedule an appointment to visit our shelter. If you have already submitted an inquiry through Adopt-a-Pet or Petfinder about a particular cat, there is no need to send a separate email.
2) During your appointment, you will complete a questionnaire and work with an adoption coordinator to find the cat that is right for you. This process may involve meeting with numerous cats, or even making more than one visit to Animal House. You and your new cat will live together for a lifetime, so this step is important.
3) Before adoption, we ensure that your cat has been spayed or neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated.
4) When your adoption is finalized, the adoption paperwork is completed and a $130 adoption fee for adult cats and $150 for kittens is collected.
We are located at:
2151 59th Street

More about this shelter
Animal House Cat Rescue and Adoption Center is a private, non-profit, “no-kill” organization dedicated to providing the homeless, abandoned cats and kittens of St. Louis with a better life. We are committed to maintaining an adoption center that provides a safe, healthy and enriching environment, and our goal is a solid and lasting adoption for every cat and kitten in our care.
Animal House opened in 2010 when the City of St. Louis closed its municipal shelter and ended a number of services for stray animals. Not only did the 75 cats residing in their shelter need a place to go, the St. Louis community needed services for abandoned, homeless cats. Animal House was born out of that need. Today we house 100-250 cats and kittens at any given time.
The cats and kittens at Animal House are rescued from the streets of our community and often come from challenging circumstances that include neglect, abandonment, or injury. We have created a safe place where cats in need find shelter, medical and nutritional support, individualized socialization and interaction, enrichment, lots of love, and the opportunity to connect with a loving, lifelong family. We impose no time limit on this process, giving each cat or kitten the time they need. We emphasize matchmaking throughout our adoption process to ensure the best possible match.
