Magnolia (#catalumni) would like to thank our friends at @kitnipbox for the goodies!
Truthfully, she's not the biggest catnip fiend, but Magnolia loves a solid box for rubbing.
Thank you, @kitnipbox for keeping our shelter cats happy and high while they await adoption.
You’re invited! 🎂 It’s our 28th Birthday, and we’re celebrating with a mission: 28 new Meow Team members to honor 28 years of lives saved. Will you be one of our 28 heroes?

Does your cat have any odd dinner time habits? At CAT, we’re grateful for our partnership with @purina to keep our cats and kittens nutritionally sound. Even if they request their dish be held by a thoughtful human like #catalumni Midnight here, we know they’re getting a good diet with food from our #PurinaPartner

Our #fosterfriday featured friend is Wendy!
Wendy is a seven-year-old female kitty who prefers the quiet life. She loves to be brushed and petted. Once she gets to know you, she’s all about hanging out for chill time.
She definitely would be happiest in a home that is not really busy and noisy. Wendy has shown mild interest in the resident cats on the other side of the door, and would probably be okay with another laid back adult cat after proper introductions.

Oh, no! Our elevator stopped working!
If you plan to visit us in the coming days, please be aware that many of our cats are housed on the second floor of our building. If you have mobility issues, please check in with our front desk to make accommodations. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope to have the elevator working next week.
