Why We Rely on Donations—and Where Your Support Goes

ree

Running a cat sanctuary is a labor of love—and it’s one that relies heavily on the kindness and generosity of people like you. Every meow, every purr, every second chance we give is made possible because someone cared enough to donate.

We’re often asked why donations are so important and how the money is used. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at what your support truly means for our cats—and how every dollar makes a difference.


🐾 Medical Care: Saving Lives Every Day

Many of the cats who come to us have never seen a vet. Some arrive sick, injured, malnourished, or with chronic conditions like FIV, FeLV, or diabetes. Your donations help cover:

  • Emergency surgeries

  • Spay/neuter procedures

  • Vaccinations and microchipping

  • Dental care and ongoing treatments

  • Prescription medications and special diets

Medical care is often our biggest expense, but it’s also the most life-saving.


🐾 Daily Essentials: Comfort and Cleanliness

Cats in our care need more than just love—they need daily basics to stay healthy and happy. Your support helps us buy:

  • Food (including kitten formula and special diets)

  • Litter and litter boxes

  • Cleaning supplies

  • Bedding, blankets, and carriers

  • Toys and enrichment items


These everyday essentials might seem small, but they add up quickly, especially when caring for dozens of cats at a time.


🐾 Safe Shelter: A Place to Heal and Grow

We provide a warm, safe, and loving environment for every cat that enters our sanctuary. Whether it’s a scared kitten born outdoors or a senior cat surrendered after years in a home, your donations keep the lights on and the heat running. They help us:

  • Maintain clean and safe enclosures

  • Make repairs and improvements to our facility

  • Cover utility bills

  • Keep our operations running smoothly


🐾 Adoption Outreach & Education

Finding the right forever homes takes time and effort. Donations help us fund:

  • Adoption events and promotional materials

  • Photos and bios of adoptable cats

  • Educational resources for new cat parents

  • Social media campaigns and outreach efforts

The more people we reach, the more lives we can save.


🐾 Emergency Rescues & Special Cases

Every so often, we get a call we weren’t expecting—hoarding cases, abandoned litters, or cats left behind after a move. These urgent situations require fast action, and your donations give us the flexibility to say yes when it matters most.


Your Generosity, Their Second Chance

When you donate, you’re not just giving money—you’re giving hope. Hope to a cat who was discarded, injured, or forgotten. Hope to a volunteer who can see the difference your support makes. Hope to a family who finds their perfect companion because you made that match possible.


We couldn't do any of this without you.
