We take in friendly cats and kittens as space permits to get them homes by adoption through PetSmart or Pet Finder. We adopt out fully vetted & microchipped cats/kittens, so we really appreciate all donations, as our vet bills are high.
Only from Aug 1 – 31.

What’s the difference between a stray cat, a semi-feral cat, & a feral cat? ![]()
![]()
Below is some general information. As always, there can be some gray area.![]()
![]()
Stray cats were at one point socialized to people and may be eligible for adoption, while truly feral cats aren’t domesticated and are happy living outside on their own.![]()
![]()
Feral cats are also less likely to approach people, unlike strays, who are more comfortable around humans and houses.![]()
![]()
Semi-feral cats are cats who have had some experience with humans in the past. Semi-feral cats are vocal and may make eye-contact even if they do not allow humans to touch them. Some semi-feral cats can be socialized over time; it depends on the cat and the person working with that cat.![]()
![]()
PLEASE DO NOT LABEL EVERY CAT YOU SEE OUTSIDE AS FERAL. How you label an outdoor cat will determine next steps on the best way to help that cat.![]()
![]()
All outdoor cats should go through the Trap/Neuter/Return (TNR) process - a stray cat might go into foster care after vetting in search of an indoor forever home if a rescue organization has space. Generally, stray cats are candidates for adoption; feral cats are generally not.![]()
