Help for the Cats and Community

Why a building? Here are some of the many ways a building will help not only the cats but the community too!

Cats in homes faster - Having adoptable cats in a facility that is open to the public will allow adopters to meet more cats and find their perfect match more quickly.
More cats can be rescued - By having adoptable cats in the facility it will open up space in foster homes for those that need help. We will also have an area for adoptable cats that have chronic medical conditions to be seen by adopters. These include cats that are on daily medication or that are positive for FIV and/or FELV.
Easier intakes - A facility will give us a designated place for people to bring cats that are being surrendered. We will have the ability to evaluate intakes to determine what they need prior to them going to foster homes. We will also have designated space for emergency intakes.
Temporary boarding program - Having a facility will allow us to have the space to help the pets of those fleeing domestic violence. We will have a program in which we will board their cats for a designated amount of time. Allowing them to get to safety and be able to reunite with their furry family member later.
Pet food pantry- With a facility we will have space and access to funding to be able to help low income residents who cannot afford to feed their pets. This prevents pets from being surrendered to shelters or rescues during times of financial difficulty and allows the pets to remain in their own homes.
Community education - A facility will allow us to hold classes and events to help educate the community on the importance of spay/neuter and other pet centric topics.
More volunteer opportunities - Families and individuals in the community that want to help but can't foster can come to the facility to help with cat care, cleaning, adoptions, sorting of donations, entering medical records and many more much needed tasks.
Future job opportunities - Many grants are only available to rescues and shelters who have a facility. With additional sources of funding it would open up the possibility of having paid staff on site.
