The Independent Cat Society is about more than just cats. People and pets in need find help, support, and refuge here. Run totally by volunteers, ICS is a soft place to land when people and their pets hit hard times. They do everything in their power to help their community and the cats and kittens in their shelter.
After our beloved pet rabbit, Cashmere, passed on in March 2023, the house was too quiet. We knew we wanted cats as our next pets and we knew we wanted two, adults so they would not be as rambunctious, and have company. Having seen ICS ads in the local newspaper for years, we knew we wanted to support and adopt from them. We visited twice, petting all the cats (probably 100+ cats!!) And fell in love with Checkers and Shrimp (Hera). The adoption process was easy and they even hung on to our babies for a few weeks while we finished up some other commitments. In August, we brought them home! It took some adjustments, but at the three-month mark, our Shrimp and Checkers are the best of pals (with minimal swiping! Haha) but seriously, they play and keep each other entertained for literal hours. We love are fluffy little pals and the house is quiet no more! You can tell ICS volunteers socialize their cats so well and give them so much love. Having been there to visit on catnip day, those cats are treated like royalty! I'd recommend ICS to any adopter.
I love coming to visit the kitties and the staff is so nice! They do everything they can to make sure these cats have a good and long life.
Love ICS! I adopted my first kitties from them in 2012, I then started volunteering and I continue to be impressed with everyone’s passion and enthusiasm. They truly have the cats’ best interest at heart.

Meet Larry, Darrell and Dyngus , 10 year old brothers who came to ICS as farm kittens after their care giver passed away. They were considered “feral” when they came in but with patience and love they have become absolute snugglers. Here they are together in their purrever home!
I volunteered here as a teen and many, many years later have returned to give one or two cats a forever home. After losing my 20 year old, who had been with me my entire adult life, I am finally ready to open my heart and home to another cat. Tinsel's story spoke to me and I can't wait to bring her home.
The ladies were extremely welcoming to our family when we wanted to come meet all the adoptables. They were very patient with our 3 year old son and helping us decide on the best cats for us. They were also very knowledgeable about every cat which also helped us make the best decision for our family. We ended up taking home 2 kittens that fit perfectly into our family. They even called a little after they were adopted to make sure everyone was adjusting well in the house.
Independent cat society has been a huge part of my life. They have taken in friendly strays in my yard with loving open arms . Any questions I have they are responsive and helpful . I adopted my first cat from
ICS and within a few weeks it became VERY sick . I took it to my vet and the vet told me to put it to sleep. I wanted to contact ICS before I made this choice and they guided me to a second opinion Vet . I rushed my cat to the Vet they suggest and they saved my cat with one easy surgery! He is the most wonderful cat I have ever had and I am grateful for ICS every day for helping me! I am trying to rescue a mom and baby currently in my yard and ICS said they will be there to help me once I trap them . They are just the best organization.
My kids and I decided to adopt a kitten and when we got to ICS, we quickly fell in love with two! We had the best experience there and saw how much everyone loved being there and loved all the animals. We are so thankful we got our babies from such a wonderful, caring organization.
Many years ago, I started visiting ICS to pet cats and help to keep them socialized. Having 9 cats of my own, I couldn't adopt any more, let alone foster. I got to know several fur babies who then either got adopted or crossed the bridge. I met a special cat who stole my heart, so even though I couldn't adopt, I sponsored him for many years. He finally got the grand prize of being adopted last year. The next 3 cats I sponsored have all gone to their forever homes. Just yesterday, I brought home a new family member, after losing 3 of my babies in as many years. This particular guy showed up at my house one day, very friendly and obviously well fed. I took him to ICS where they scanned him for a chip. He had one, but there was no information to lead him home. After thinking about him for the next 4 months, I decided to bring him to my home. As an adopter, sponsor and a volunteer, I can say everyone here has a heart of gold. The cats are so well taken care of and every possible avenue is taken to match people to cats for the best fit in their homes.
ICS does a wonderful job caring for hundreds of cats day in and out! I personally know some board members, medical workers, and volunteers that help run this organization and their passion for rescuing animals is incredible. It doesn't matter if the shelter is at 200+ cats or less than 100. They ensure every cat is individually looked after and cared for. I adopted my cat from there in 2021 and the shelter ensured his shots were up to date, he was fixed, and even paid for a quality of life check and eye exam for my cat even after bringing him home. If you're interested in adopting, ICS is the place to go. If not, I'd highly recommend spending some time to volunteer and witness this amazing cat rescue for yourself and be apart of this amazing team.
ICS has shown that cats are their #1 priority! The cats are given the best care- lots of love, toys, play time and cuddles! Check it out! I’ve met cats there that are cooler than most humans.
I have volunteered and worked with the independent cat society since I was a teenager. The work that they do is beyond phenomenal. This is no kill shelter. Sick cats, even those who are unadoptable, get treatment and a place to live out their lives. The volunteers are tireless. Thousands and thousands of cats have gotten a second chance through the independent cat society. Volunteers even take sick cats home for treatment until they can be incorporated into the ICS population. They also help people trap, neuter, and return feral cats to help reduce the feral population. They educate people on how to care for colonies. Their work to ensure the humane treatment of animals improves the lives of cats, humans, and communities. This is the most amazing organization with which I have ever worked.
ICS is able to make a big impact on animals in the local community, thanks to volunteers, donors, and their small crew of employees. Some of the ways ICS makes a difference: TNR for feral and community cats, low cost spay/neuter vouchers to the public, providing vet care to cats needing medical attention, and finding homes for many cats each year. Being a part of an organization that helps so many people and animals is very rewarding!
Thai place is a JOKE ! They fired me for not signing write ups AFTER THEY CUT MY HOURS! they have NO POLICIES ABOUT CALL OFFS At all… they make up rules as they go along other employees missed WAY more than me but I get fired because I refused to sign a write up that is not in policy anywhere ! This place should be shut down ! They run it how ever they see fit and wonder why cats rarely get adopted !! Kitty ans Jocelyn are the rudest people I have ever met and Paulette speaks to people like they are beneath her and she does her laundry there with the shelter supplies that is THEFT !! but yet she can do what she wants when she wants
I got my cat Phoebe here. I had the best experience ever! I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a loving cat.
The do amazing work! They help save so many lives. My baby Mookie came from there. I have terrible anxiety and he always comes to me when I'm having an attack. He just knows and really helps ground me. Some people say I saved him by adopting him but he really saved me. I'm able to live a normal life and am much more comfortable and outgoing now. If ICS hadn't saved him and taken him in, I wouldn't have my best friend.
In 2004 we adopted this big ball of fur. "Furball" was his name given by ICS. When we asked his age after letting them know we would adopt him we were informed 9. I wasn't wanting a cat that old but this ball of fur won us over. We got to enjoy 9 wonderful years with our fur baby and he was one spoiled kitty. Cody as he was renamed after adoption left a big hole in our hearts when he crossed that rainbow bridge. The ladies at ICS were great and really care about finding every cat a loving furever home.
I had a lifelong cat and best friend pass away after 19 years. Finally, when the time was right my husband and I were ready to adopt. We go into each room waiting for our cat to "pick us." Finally, two cats from the same room (Boppers) picked us. Fast forward a year, and both cats have changed our lives for the better. The one kitty is actually just like my late cat that had passed. By no means did I expect this and honestly she wasn't very needy and affectionate at the shelter. She really came out of her shell and she is a literal answer to prayers. I know this story is above and beyond most stories, but ever since we adopted our kitties, we decided it was time to do more and give back to the shelter that does so much for all the kitties. My husband and I are now are new volunteers!
About 7 years ago I began feeding and caring for a feral cat. After her second litter I decided to catch her and have her spayed. She was easier to catch than I anticipated so I found myself in need of assistance because I had no kittys or supplies. Her surgery was 3 days out. I called a local shelter that I donated to regularly and was told there was nothing they could do to help me. I took a chance and called Independent Cat Society. They gave me a large kennel, a small kennel for transport on surgery day, a litter box and filled it with litter. All they asked for was my name and address. When I returned their supplies I was happy to make a donation. I will never forget their kindness. Also I adopted 2 from her last litter. Thank you iCS!
The volunteers at this shelter spend time socializing cats/kittens before adoption. They help adopters long after that first day they take them home. If by any chance you need further help they are always there. They have unconditional love for all their adopted cats and welcome them back if need be where they can spend the rest of their lives. A Rainbow Garden is set up on their property where you can reflect on the past lives of your pets. You can purchase a brick to memorialize your pet(s). This is a "no kill" shelter that is approaching the 40 year mark and continues to assist in "trap,neuter,return" for feral cat communities. They go above and beyond what a shelter usually does.
I had a young kitty show up at my door, and was sickly and I had no idea what to do. They helped me out with open arms and heart.
When my dad was 83 years old, he lost his dog. Casey had been his only daily company since my mom died a year ago. He had never had a cat before, but he loved mine so we decided to adopt a senior cat for him to keep him company. I called Independent Cat Society before we went there so they would know what we were looking for. They emailed me several photos and stories of some senior cats who would be calm and not too big, so my dad would be able to pick him/her up. When we went to the shelter, the ladies were awesome! Taking us to meet the senior cats and allowing my dad to spend time with each of them so he would find the one that was a perfect fit for them both. He decided on Precious, a 13 year old ginger girl who was very shy and probably would never have been adopted since she stayed to herself in the corner when adoption days came. We took her home and she and my dad, after some time for adjustment, hit it off! He loved having her to feed, play with, brush and talk to. He had her for 5 years, then she came to live with me when he could no longer take care of her. She made those 5 years so much happier and healthier for my dad. They were true buddies and she knew just how to get treats from him when she wanted them! I'm so glad he had a pet to love in his final years and I will always be grateful to ICS for the time and care they gave helping him pick the perfect cat for him! This photo is my absolute favorite of them together.
Having to care for a cat colony of 20+ in our neighborhood in 2019, ICS was very helpful in the process of getting them trapped, fixed and released to prevent the situation from getting any worse. They helped the cat we fostered and ultimately made apart of my home. She is my entire world and I don’t know what I’d do without her in my life. ICS is truly a great organization with the nicest bunch of individuals with the biggest hearts for these kitty moos!
These folks work very hard to maintain an aging building. They take excellent care of the cats in their shelter.
This is a great organization. A friend and I found a beautiful black cat. He was pretty beat up from fighting. We took him and had him checked out and he tested positive for FIV. Because of this no shelter or rescue would take him in. Our last shot was Independent Cat Society. By this time we had pretty much lost hope. What a great feeling it was when Independent Cat Society said of course they would take him. Thanks to them he was safe and within a few weeks he had a new home!
I've adopted a cat twice from this shelter. Superb staff. They really care about their kitties they care for.
I bought 2 of my kittens and I just got 2 more! They are such nice and caring people and always know the background story to every cat! They love and spend time with each one of them and the cats are all social! I recommend this place to everyone!
I had a young friend with very little financial ability to get her cats horribly swollen ear taken care of.
I reached out to. ICS for help and they funded the treatment for her cats ear.
Seems small but for my young friend and her cat it was life saving
The people are awesome, friendly and knowledgeable. They truly love animals and working with other people who do. Personally, I have not adopted a cat from their shelter, but they have helped me in getting my cats fixed thru reduced cost programs. I've also sent others there to partake in the programs. My best friend adopted a cat from ICS after months of us going to visit and pet kitties. It was a fun experience. The more you go to visit, the more the cats will get to know you and you will know which one is right for you. Carol seems to know the personality of every cat and knows all their names. She's a great help in playing match maker. I sponsor a buddy, because I have way too many cats at home already, and I go to visit him. The facilty is clean, organized, healthy and full of love. Shelter life is hard, but so many huge hearted people at ICS give each cat the love it deserves.
ICS TNR program helped me get a colony of cats that showed up at my house (that I now take care of) spayed and neutered. I couldn't find anyone in my area to help with this and they were amazing! These cats are now living much better lives without the worry of having babies, certain health issues, having to be territorial, etc. because of them - we will be forever grateful! I have also been to the shelter a couple times and the people there are so caring and the cats are so happy and well cared for.
The ICS community do a fantastic job of taking care of all cat and all their needs no matter what. They are selfless in the way they treat every cat as if it were their own to love.
All the volunteers that we dealt with when adopting our cat were amazing. You can really tell that everyone there loves and cares about each cat.
I sponsor-a-cat every month! I also adopted two kittens several years ago who have since passed away! The people there do a fantastic job taking care of so many kittens and cats! I would recommend anybody to go there to adopt a cat!
independant cat society is westville indiana do an amazing job helping cats and kittens find good homes. they are very compationate about their job and have great consern for their fur baby guests. i adopted from them and will do it again. great staff and volunteers
I adopted 2 cats from ICS. They helped us by taking in my grandfather's cat after he was placed in a nursing home. She had diabetes and she is doing so well in their care. The workers are so dedicated and caring.
Love this group! They have been around for awhile and the only place I refer anyone to adopt a rescued cat. They are out in the public making people aware and not just sitting back asking for donations.
We wanted two kitties so bad. ICS had a large interviewing process they took very seriously which made me feel so good about adopting from them! They truly care for the kitties. When I first walked in after getting approved I saw all the kitties in rooms instead of cages! It was amazing! They treated us like family and made me feel so grateful to have chosen them. I will forever get a kitty from them. Also, they told me if anything were to happen and I couldn't keep Ollie and Skye they would always take them back. Now that is love!
I love visiting ICS and seeing the cats that are there and I even adopted one of my cats from here. The staff is all friendly and its obvious that they love what they do there. The cats are well taken care of and I really like that the cats have rooms rather than being kept in individual cages. This is by far my favorite shelter.
This is an outstanding group! The cats are well cared for and the shelter is very clean. They even work with semi-feral cats to make them adoptable. Hats off to all involved.
Ics is a very good rescue group. They take very good care of the animals in their care. They also run adoption specials. I recommend adopting from this place.
We love the Independent Cat Society! We adopted our beautiful tortie from there in 2013. ICS went above and beyond to help this lil kitty and we couldn't have been more excited to bring her home!
I have three gorgeous cats all of which I adopted from the independent cat society. I also have been involved in some of their fundraising events. This shelter is full of people who do what they do for the love of the cats, you can tell. It is a great nonprofit
It is incredible what this organization does for the kitties. I've volunteered with the ICS and got to see all of the kitties and the excellent care they receive. The cats are all taken care of so wonderfully and they even offer a voucher for vet service with every kitty adopted. Love it!
I have adopted 2 wonderful kitties from ICS. They took really great care of my cats before I discovered them and I am very grateful. I like the way they work with the cats to get them ready to be adopted. I also love the support I have received since bringing them home. They call and check in on us all and they accept and seem to actually enjoy all of the photos I like to send them to brag on how wonderful the cats are. Our cats are dear members of our family. Thank you ICS!
I recently attended an event at ICS and was so impressed! The shelter was beautifully cared for and the cats were so loved. The staff are great giving people!
The Independent Cat Society is a great place to adopt a cat or kitten! The shelter does a great job caring for the cats. We just adopted our kitten from them. They also offer spay and neuter assistance!! I also worked there years ago so I know firsthand what excellent they do!!
I have known about this shelter for 15 years. The volunteers dedicate so much time and love to the cats. To see cats go from feral to lovers is amazing!
I love visiting the Cat Society, I love that the cats are kept in rooms as opposed to cages and you can interact with them. The staff clearly love their cats and are all so nice.

The volunteers who run this shelter are so dedicated to helping the cats. I took in a cat named Harley from a foreclosed home and they accepted him into their adoption program and found him a home. I made a small cash donation when I dropped him off and also donated some supplies. They are fortunate to have many long time volunteers who each take on different roles. They do a great job, but there are always more cats in need.... so please support them any way you can.
ICS-Independent Cat Society in Westville Indiana has been serving the families and cats of this community as well as surrounding communities for over 40 years!
They are the most caring and compassionate group that I have the privilege of knowing. They have helped me in several stray kitty situations, and I have recently become an official volunteer to try and repay their kindness, as well as desiring to contribute to their TNR program.
ICS really cares about the cats that they rescue. The facility is well kept and clean. The organization hosts frequent events and fundraisers that are relevant to the community, and fun to attend. When a stray kitten found its way into my crawl space, ICS loaned me a trap, and I was able to capture the kitten. The kitten is now a cat, named Ace, and he belongs to my son. ICS is very well-known in our community, and they provide a great service and help to our stray and feral cats.
The mission and need this organization fulfills is beyond amazing! The kittens and cats that are given a home at the Independent Cat Society inspire so much love. In addition, its TNR (trap neuter return) program keeps safe, peaceful living for many cats within the community. As a volunteer for the past 16 months, I look forward for weekly visits as a room parent and assisting at education and adoption events within the community. My time with the cats at the Independent Cat Society is relaxing and rejuvenating after long weekdays of working. Plus, many of the free roaming the cats will greet you with enthusiasm and meows of appreciation as soon as you walk inside.
Wonderful organization to adopt a kitty from. Two of my fur babies are ICS alumni. I adopted Paisley Mae, who was a rescue off the streets of Gary, IN. My Rainbow started out as my "God-kitten". Fell in love with her and adopted her as soon as she could be spayed. All the kitties are so happy there. I also have "sponsored" a kitty for many years. I've met some of the most compassionate, caring individuals who volunteer there. II've recommended them several times.
I have not adopted a kitty or cat yet, but I have been to the society and am a member. I support this society because it does a brilliant job of taking care of adorable kittens and cats who need a forever home.
ICS has always been willing to help when they can. We found a cat outside that was declawed and had serious oral problems (I believe they named the cat Zita). They took her in and found her a forever home. We are forever thankful that they were able to help the kitty. They do such a wonderful job advocating for cats and I love the work they do!
We had recently lost 18 year old cat and was looking for another kitty to love. I found Taylor at the Independent Cat Society. Because of my crazy schedule, they worked with me and about 2 weeks later I was finely able to bring her home. She is now a much loved member of the family and we would be lost with out her. With the help of ICS, Taylor has found a forever home and we have found a companion and friend to love. It is a perfect fit.
I first discovered the Independent Cat Society about 6 years ago. I was moving into my new home and I wanted to adopt a couple of kitties for companionship. Prior to going to ICS I had dreaded going to shelters because I felt so bad for the animals there. In the last six years I have adopted several wonderful cats, volunteered as a room parent, worked on fundraising and advertising and participated in multiple events. I enjoy the time I spend at ICS and I believe the time we spend with the kitties is positive for them and us. And, amazingly, I don’t feel “bad” for them. Some cats are with us for weeks, some their entire lives. I believe it is important that we realize to us the shelter is a place to go for a few hours a week, but to them, it is home. I believe ICS respects that idea and it makes the cats feel special and loved.
The Independent Cat Society is a wonderful shelter. The volunteers and staff care so much about the cats....I have taken care of outdoor colony cats for years, and for years they have helped me by taking in house cats that get dumped or wander into the colony. I really don't know what I would have done without them. When they have extra donated food they always ask if I need any. When the shelter is full of cats and kittens, they still try to help, because that is just who they are and what they are about. All the cats that enter the shelter are fixed and vetted, and get shots and tested for diseases before they are adopted out, and that is so very important, because many times people who adopt have other cats at home and you want to make sure you know exactly what you are bringing into your home. Not all shelters do this. They love when people come and visit with the kittys that are there, because they need attention, and to be played with, and loved...It is good for the human soul and good for the kitties too. I have come to know a lot of the people who work there and it is a very friendly place. People have a tendency to ask me what shelter is the best (because they know that I deal with cat situations a lot) and I always say "The Independent Cat Society," because they are the best one out there.
Also, this year has been a big year for our TNR program. It is now headed by Jodi Dusek and we have been trapping and fixing more cats than we ever have....I believe we are up to #135 for this year. This will help keep the kitten births down and help control outdoor cat populations.
The photo is of Bubba my ICS permanent foster....He is the love of my life!
ICS is the best..great volunteers who provide so much care and love for the beautiful purr babies . I adopted from them and he has been a joy. I tell people to check them out ..go play with these babies ...I go as much as I can and donate .
I went to Independent Cat Society looking for a friend for my dog. We had no certain kitty in mind. The staff was brilliant. They walked is us to each ROOM (not cages) where the kitties were roaming free. They told us back stories on the cats, and we were able to sit in the rooms and have some meet and greets with all of them. I loved it. We did meet a few babies that were kept together looking for a home. There were three that had been kept together; two of which were recommended to stay together. I did not have the heart to separate them so we ended up filling out an application for all three cats. Surprise, doggy! The staff was awesome about it, and to our surprise, only gave us a small fee for taking all three babies. Since the cats are regularly handled, it took a whole maybe 3 days to get snuggles between the cats and dog. We now have a happy home full of purrs, love, and happy tails. Thank you, ICS. You made our home whole.
I've supported ICS for over 20 years and have now been an active volunteer for the past 4 years. ICS is run by volunteers and funded solely by donations, but it works because everyone cares about each and every one of the cats and kittens who come in as if they were their own. The organization celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2017. It is a wonderful place to volunteer, and most importantly, it is a great place to find your fur-ever feline friend. Most cats are not in cages but rather in communal rooms where you can go and interact with them, and let a cat choose you.
If you can't adopt, you can always visit and get your "cat fix", or, ICS has a program called Sponsor-A-Cat where you can donate towards the care of one of the shelter cats and receive a picture of the cat, as well as birthday and holiday cards from your sponsored cat. If he or she is adopted, you are notified and sent a picture of a new cat.
ICS also has a Low-cost Spay/Neuter program in conjunction with some local veterinarians that provides a less expensive way for people to get their cats (pets as well as outdoor cats) fixed, helping to reduce the number of kittens that are born each year.
All in all, ICS is a wonderful place!

My family and I went to Independent Cat Shelter to find a kitten for my kids.
The staff was absolutely amazing, very nice and they was all so helpful.
We would recommend this facility to anyone!
Our application was approved and we will be picking our new baby tomorrow! ❤
The people at ICS are kind, dedicated, caring people. They work tirelessly to find homes for cats of all ages. The cats are well cared for, the shelter is no kill, and every effort is made to find forever homes for every cat.
I adopted my two cats from ICS and it was a great experience. I have friends that have gotten vouchers to get their cats fixed. They take in as many animals as they can. Always willing to help. I think it's a great place if you want to adopt a cat/kitten. D J Daniel
I adopted my cat from ICS when they were kittens. ICS went above and beyond to make sure the kittens were going to a good home and even let us borrow a carrier to take our baby home. Everyone who volunteers there is always beyond friendly. I go to ICS occasionally just to visit with the kittens/cats. I attend events at every chance I can to help ICS. I recommend every person I know who is looking to rescue to go to ICS.
I have been a volunteer with ICS for a few years now and recently an adopter. The staff and other volunteers at the shelter are wonderful people. They really care for the cats and give them the best quality of life possible. Along with the care that takes place inside the shelter, they also do amazing things to help within the community by offering help for spaying and neutering and also TNR services. They also work hard on their fundraising efforts to help support the shelter. A great organization all around!
I adopted my 2 cats from there in 2008. Very kind women that work there. You can tell they really care for the animals very well. They work so hard. Bless these ladies
I have volunteered with the Independent Cat Society for over 25 years and I never ceased to be amazed by the conviction, dedication and care exhibited by the volunteers in this organization. Their shared motivation to assist animals in need is what keeps this shelter going. People give their funds, time, talents and expertise in order to care for needy animals and ultimately get them homes.

The Independent Cat Society, a no-kill shelter is run by a diverse and dedicated team of volunteers provides shelter and loving care to the most needy cats. The cats are housed in rooms rather than cages which provides potential adopters with an opportunity to interact with many cats at one time. Cats are never euthanized for space or any reason other than to alleviate end of life suffering under a veterinarian's advice. Many programs support life-saving efforts including adoption, foster, spay/neuter, TNR, fundraising events, etc. all run by volunteers, proud to give their time & energy to this most noble cause. I am honored to be among them.
ICS with little paid employees and many volunteers manages to save lives and assist the community. They advocate for low cost spay and neuters, as well as have a great TNR program. Those are two of many needs they fulfill. I love supporting this primarily cage free facility and love provided to the residents. I have adopted two wonderful brothers from ICS. Thank you for all that you do for cats and the community!
This shelter works hard at saving all of their 9 lives! Once adopted they will never turn their back on a cat that was adopted from them whether it is returned because it is sick, unloved, abused or old. They give them much needed love, food, health care and dignity. I have adopted a returned cat who was unloved and had to be fed thru a tube to regain his strength. He is so handsome, playful and loved! ICS does so much for people to help them financially to spay and neuter their pets thru grants. They are always there to lend a helping hand however they can!
ICS is a wonderful, supportive environment where everyone is interested in the same thing - helping the animals. The people all have wonderful stories and backgrounds to share and I've made some of my best friends through volunteering there. They care deeply about the cause and are a diverse, amazing group. It's very rewarding to work with them and with the kitties to help them lead better lives, and find good homes.
Awesome Rescue. The volunteers spend limitless amount of hours and dollars to help all the cats and kittens they can. There is no end to the kindness of the volunteers that work at this organization. The animals are very well cared for, socialized and loved. Anyone adopting from this shelter is sure to get the most awesome pet of their life.
