CATS

Cats at the Shelter are litter box trained, tested for feline leukemia/FIV, vaccinated and dewormed. AGE DISCLAIMER: Unfortunately, most of the orphaned animals who come to the shelter looking for homes don't bring birth certificates. Sometimes we know our pets' ages. Sometimes we don't. So we make our best guess by the condition of their teeth. Sometimes we are fooled. We ask that if you are concerned about the age of the pet you adopt, you take the pet to your veterinarian for the vet's best educated guess. If siblings are adopted, the adoption fee for the second cat is waived. Adoption fees are waived for cats eight years and older adopted by senior citizens 60 years and older with the Ark’s "Golden Years" program.

Accepting Surrendered Animals by Appointment Only

KITTIES! KITTIES! KITTIES!

The Ark has plenty of adult cats in need of homes. Some have been at the shelter for almost a year. In order to find loving homes for these deserving felines the Ark will waive all adoption fees on MANY of the shelter cats. However a minimum donation of $15 will be required pending an approved application. Please call the shelter for more details.

We will soon have a new "Cat-a-Log" so you can search among the Ark cats for your purr-fect feline companion. For now, use the link below to search the listing of our cats on Petfinder.

NEEDED NOW: Volunteers who like cats, to spend some one on one time with cats who need further socialization with people. This requires patience, and can be very rewarding. Personal contact, on a regular basis, can make a cat more interested in human attention, and increase the likelihood of adoption.
