their heads at night, or fifteen pounds of cat on their chest and kitty breath in their face as they try to watch TV in the evenings.

Most kitties though are "lap" cats.  They are content to get the attention they desire by jumping on their owners' laps and lying down quietly as they await the strokes they just know are coming.  The rest of the time, wanting only to be in your presence, they just suddenly appear in whatever room you're in, and unobtrusively lie down on any convenient surface.  (If the room is the bedroom, the surface is usually the clothes you've just laid out on the bed.  Now if that's not affection, what is?)

Other considerations are dogs and/or children in your household.  Some kittens, raised with dogs, consider dogs just big kitties.  Other cats just aren't, and never will be, at ease when dogs are around.

So, enrich your life, lower your blood pressure, and add a bit of elegance and grace to your life all at the same time - adopt a cat.

Cat of the Month--Baby

Baby is very lovable once she gets to know you. Loves to lay on your chest and sleep with you at night. She has been declawed as well. She is looking for a new home because her new human baby brother is very allergic to her.

Baby needs a permanent home

Message From the President

Well here it is the end of our first full year of operation. This year things have really kicked into gear. We have adopted out 150 cats and kittens this year. Our feral trap, neuter, and return program (TNR) is approaching 60 cats caught and released for the 6 months the program has been in operation. This program allows us to trap feral cats and have them altered at no cost as long as we release them in a cared for environment that provides food and water. Our efforts in this area will increase for the next few months to try and limit the number of litters born later next year. Also the free feral spay and neuter program may come to an end next year unless the CVMA and Maddies fund renew the Feral Cat Assistance Program or FCAP.
