Shelter FAQs

We are a small NO-KILL home-based shelter in the Forest Hills neighborhood of Jamaica Plain and a network of loving foster homes, friends, sympathetic veterinarians and feline rescuers all working to reduce the number of homeless cats in our backyards and on our local Boston streets. We are strictly NO-KILL. We believe that no one has the right to judge (as many shelters do) who is deserving of his or her own life. We euthanize only when a veterinarian concludes an animal is terminally ill with no hope of recovery. We are always asked our hours of operation. We are not staffed during the day, we receive no state, city or federal funding, we are all volunteers who give our time and money for love of the animals. We all work paying jobs during the day and care for the animals every evening.
Our goal is to rescue animals in the City of Boston. There are THOUSANDS of homeless and feral cats on the streets of our city, and we created this shelter to help the cats here first.

Additional adoption info

We use many private foster homes, and Petsmarts, so potential adopters must complete an adoption application showing vet and/or personal references. An adoption fee helps to recover our costs, and supports our work:
Adult Cat: $300.00-already neutered/spayed,combo-tested, vaccinated.
Kitten: $325.00-includes spay/neuter (whether already done or to be done before 6 months of age), combo-test, rabies & distemper vaccinations.
All cats/kittens are de-fleaed and wormed.
