These are the vast majority of cats currently at the shelter, Please click on the image to enlarge it and read the descriptions. The typical adoption fee for cats is $60 - this fee includes a 4-way vaccination, Rabies shot (if old enough), and Microchip.
Due to the fact that some cats are wild or ferral, not ALL cats are pictured, therefore, please check with us if your missing cat is not pictured.
As you can see, this is our busiest time of the year. There is a leash law on cats as well as dogs. Love them and leash them! Save a life and adopt a shelter animal. Thank you!
The following is a list of EVERY cat that is brought into our shelter. This list is updated daily with the exception of Sat/Sun. If you have lost your Cat/Kitten please check here daily and contact the shelter at 279-6968 to report your lost pet. Thank You!

I am a friendly herbivore that very vocal. I am nocturnal pet that will require frequent dust baths. Can't have a dog or cat, then I am your girl. Please consider choosing me.

Please check KCAU Channel 9 each morning for our "Stray of the day segment". Each day (starting June 6 M-F), one of our lost animals will be featured in this segment in attempts to find his/her owners. Who knows, you may find your animal OR a new best friend.

Cat Sponsorship.
Maybe you like the look of one of the above cats, but are unable to adopt him or her for yourself? You can always sponsor a kitty - which will make it a lot easier for someone else to adopt. Any amount that you sponsor will be deducted from the adoption fee for that particular cat and you will receive recognition in the cats description for your generosity! (plus, you get to have a nice, warm fuzzy feeling inside - knowing that you are helping a cat in need) ;)
​
Cat sponsorships are proving to be extremely successful, with the vast majority of sponsored cats finding a home quickly! If you are interested in sponsoring, please complete the form below and be sure to enter the kennel number and brief description of the cat in the message subject line. Please enter the recognition or message (that you would like us to add to the description) in the large box at the bottom of the form.
​
Cat adoption fees are generally $60, You can sponsor more than this amount if you would like to and spread it between as many cats as you want to - just let us know how you would like your sponsorship money split up.
​
After sending the form to us, please use the "Square" button (below) to send your chosen sponsorship amount.
