Orphan Angels Cat Sanctuary and Adoption Center

Orphan Angels Cat Sanctuary and Adoption Center Orphan Angels is a no-kill, free-roaming cat sanctuary and adoption center. We are a free-roaming sanctuary. We are a no-kill shelter.

We aim to end homelessness for cats in the Erie area through fostering, adoption, and education. At Orphan Angels, our foster and adoption programs aim to place homeless cats, including those with special needs, FIV, and FeLV, into loving forever homes. We believe that every cat is adoptable; some just require a little more time, patience, and understanding than others to find the perfect match. W

hen you enter our doors the majority of the 100+ cats that live on the premises are free to roam about the space. The only cats that you will find in cages currently are due to medical or dietary needs – but we are working hard to remedy this issue with our new cage project. We never euthanize based on finances or space within the shelter. We serve as a voice for the voiceless

A few new faces will be moving in for Clear the Shelter on Saturday! Jasmine, Emerald and Jet will be joining us for waived adoptions!

Happy September 🍇

This month we are featuring Moose, a longterm foster with an interesting story! Moose was born with a re**um that was too small to produce stool, a condition known as atresia ani. This required a surgery with an internal medicine specialist to help things move along easier for him. He still requires a gastrointestinal diet, but otherwise is a pretty normal cat!

Moose is available for sponsorship only through our website as he resides with a special needs foster. You can support his care by sitting down with a glass of wine, and dawning your new pin as the smell of ripening grapes begins to take over our region.

Grab yours through the link below or from our online shelter shop! 😸

We are beyond grateful for the outpouring of love and support we’ve received! 💕 Thanks to your generous donations and kitten food sent our way, our tiniest rescues have full bellies and happy hearts. 🍼😽

Every can, every bag, every gift makes such a huge difference for the babies in our care. Because of YOU, we can continue giving them the best start in life and the second chance they deserve.

From all of us at Orphan Angels (especially the kittens 😻), THANK YOU for being a part of our lifesaving family. 💖

Like mother, like son! 👀👀

These look alikes are Paris and Rio! Funny enough, Rio was born three days after the rest of his siblings! Paris needed an emergency spay following his birth, but never stopped caring for her litter! She was truly a dedicated mom! Now, she and her kittens are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, flea treated and ready for their forever homes!

Stop in this weekend to meet these two or put in an app now and we’ll schedule a meet and greet! 🤩

Orphan Angels Cat Sanctuary & Adoption Center

We are a 501(c)(3) no kill, cat only shelter in Erie, PA. At Orphan Angels, our foster and adoption programs aim to place homeless cats, including those with special needs, FIV, and FeLV, in loving forever homes. We believe that every cat is adoptable; some just require more time, patience, understanding, and love than others to find the perfect match. Our ultimate goal is to place the cats that are in our care, but there is no limit on the amount of time they may spend with us. Every cat in our care has a loving home in our sanctuary for as long as they need us.

We can always use scoopable, clumping cat litter, canned Friskies and Fancy Feast brand cat food, and volunteers at the shelter, as well as volunteers to foster cats not yet ready to enter the shelter. We are funded solely by donations, and receive no money from outside sources. Our adoption fees alone do not cover the medical costs associated with the regular medical care of a healthy cat, let alone those who may need more medical care or treatment, especially those who are long term residents of our sanctuary, or those who have chronic health needs. We are always exceptionally grateful for any monetary donations made towards the cats in our care to help defray these costs. Donations can be sent to our PayPal at [email protected] - or if you would prefer to send a check by mail, please contact us for a mailing address. You can also donate directly to our various year round fundraising efforts or emergency medical fundraisers.
