rehome your cat
Space is always a limitation, please contact us ASAP if you think you may need to surrender your cat in the not too distant future. If we have room to accept your cat into our care, we ask that your bring the animal in a secured carrier. We also require any and all vet papers and documentation you have for your animal. Depending on the medical and disposition of the animal you are surrendering, we charge a give-up fee of $25-50 per animal. Please email us to discuss surrendering your cat(s) and to request give-up forms.
We are nearly always at full capacity and have a waiting list for cats to come into our care. While we can add you to our waiting list, being on the list does NOT guarantee we will be able to accept your cat. We want to help every cat we can, but often times we are not able to meet the specific needs and care requirements of your particular cat. There may also be situations where coming into our care would be detrimental to the overall health and well-being of your cat.
A wonderful service to use when rehoming your pet is:

i found a litter of kittens
It’s natural to want to scoop them up and try to care for them yourself or take them to a shelter. But both of those options may actually place them in more danger. To give newborn kittens the best chance of survival, follow these steps:
- Leave the kittens alone and try to figure out if their mom is still around. Observe them from a distance every couple of hours for 12 to 18 hours. If the kittens seem content, clean, well-fed and are not fussing, there’s a good chance their mom is coming back.
- If the kittens are in danger due to their location, move them to a safer spot nearby so the mom can easily find them when she returns.
- If the kittens are dirty, meowing or appear sick, underweight or dehydrated, contact a local rescue organization; they can help you determine if the kittens are at risk and if you should intervene.
- If you spot the mom, leave the kittens alone. When the kittens are about 4 weeks old, it is safe to remove them from mom and begin to socialize them for adoption (don't forget to have their parents go through TNR to prevent another litter from being born). Kittens over 12 weeks of age are past the socialization point and they, along with their rest of their family, should go through the TNR process.

I found a stray cat/dog
If you have found a lost dog or cat, contact your local non-emergency police about the animal and where to take him/her. The best chance of reuniting a lost pet and their owner is through your local animal control services.
