Mission: The Cat Corner was founded by a very passionate and devoted animal lover, Martha Nicholson. After seeing an overwhelming amount of cats homeless and being euthanized, Martha was determined to open a no-kill shelter to make a difference in these cats lives. In 1981, Martha purchased an old barber shop at her own expense and opened The Cat Corner in Hampton, Virginia. The Cat Corner is a completely volunteer operated organization and is solely funded by donations from the community. Because of the help of our caring and hard working volunteers and the support and donations from our community, we have been able to uphold Martha's dream and make a difference in countless lives...and doing so for over three decades! We are a nonprofit, all-volunteer-run organization and do not receive any federal, state or local government funding and rely solely on donations from our community.
