Become a "Kitty Sponsor"

You too can help save the life of a homeless cat for less than you would spend on a trip to the movies. By sponsoring a cat for as little as $10 a month you help to pay for ongoing costs of feeding, medicating, and caring for the cat, until a permanent home can be found. Those not finding permanent homes will be kept in our sanctuary, to live out their lives with proper care, feeding and veterinary care. Thanks go out to our vets. Especially Dr. Lorraine Sellers, what a great gal.

Special Needs Cats and Kittens for Adoption

 

Eleanor

Eleanor came to us on April 14, 2008 after her mother died after giving birth. Her four (4) siblings died shortly after, from which is believed to be a virus passed on by the mother in-vitro. Eleanor from the very beginning had a will to live that cannot be explained. She fought and fought against all odds to get where she is today. Although, she only weighs a few pounds and is at least 4 1/2 months of age, her determination still amazes us daily.

Every day she makes very small improvements to stand and walk on her own. She has learned to eat on her own, use the litterbox and enjoys playing with the other kittens that pass through on their way to finding new homes. She is our little 'miracle" baby and teaches us everyday the lesson of how "all life is valuable." We will take care of Eleanor however long she lives, or until a better home can be provided for her.

We are taking donations to help Eleanor in the way of financial support or food (her favorite is Gerber's Baby Food) or litter (she needs a special litter - Yesterday's News.) If you are interested in adopting Eleanor, please contact us.

Katherine Hepburn

Katherine Hepburn came to us on June 6, 2008. She was found on the streets in Cameron Park. Only because of her siblings are we able to determine that she was about 8-10 weeks when she came to us, however, she still remains a pound and a half. Her condition is very similar to our kitten Eleanor's in that she shakes when she eats, walks, etc., (receives stimulation) however, she is completely self sufficient.

We checked with Dr. Sellars, our vet, and she had this to say about Katherine Hepburn: Katherine has Cerebellar Hypoplasia, which means that the cerebellum of her brain did not completely form as a fetus. The cerebellum is the part of the brain which controls the muscle and motor abilities of the animal. She will not get better, but just as likely, may not get worse either. Dr. Sellars doesn't feel her affliction will necessarily shorten her life as long as she is an indoor kitty.
