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

Microchip Magic: A Happy Tail!

Last week, we took in a sweet kitty who was found outside, crying for help. Thankfully, a kind-hearted Good Samaritan brought him to us. As always, the first thing we did was scan for a microchip—and we got a hit!

It turns out this adventurous little guy had slipped out while some work was being done at his home. Because he was microchipped, we were able to contact his owner right away and get him back home safely.

This is a perfect example of why microchipping your pet is so important. Accidents can happen in the blink of an eye, but a microchip can make all the difference in reuniting you with your furry family member.

Our cat clinic offers HomeAgain microchips for just $40. If your kitty isn’t chipped yet, we highly encourage you to schedule an appointment—give yourself peace of mind and your cat a better chance of finding their way back home if they ever get out.

Call our clinic today to schedule for a chip!

Meet Olivia! 👋🏻

Olivia’s dad just moved into a nursing home and she had nowhere to go so she’s bunking with us. She’s still getting used to the place, but has made huge strides coming out of her shell over the last week. Her sweet and timid personality creep up on you in just the right way! She loves to show affection with headbutts and purrs while you’re petting her.

We heard she used to love watching the birds, so if you’ve got a window for her to look out of and a lap to sit on, Olivia is sure to be content! She is approx 12 years old. Put in an app to meet her below!!

Kitten Season Has Arrived – And We Need Your Help!

Kitten season is officially here, and to be honest… we're feeling a little overwhelmed. When tiny, fragile lives come through our doors, we need your help to give them a fighting chance.

We're in urgent need of:

Kitten milk replacement formula

Heating disks

Heartbeat stuffed animals

Thermometers

Small miracle ni***es

Monetary donations

Bottle babies require feeding every 2–3 hours around the clock, but with just a few key supplies and a dedicated foster, they stand a real chance at life.

Are you an experienced bottle baby foster?
Do you have a flexible schedule and don’t mind staying up at night?
If so, we’d love to hear from you! Please fill out a foster application on our website.

It truly takes a village to save these orphaned angels—and YOU are a vital part of that village. Whether you're able to foster, donate, or simply share this post, your support makes all the difference.

Thank you for helping us save lives—one tiny heartbeat at a time. ❤️

Meet Fuego
Today, we were contacted by a kind Samaritan who found a stray cat showing signs of illness. Concerned for his well-being, we had him bring him right in, and we are so glad he did.

Upon arrival, Fuego was cold, weak, and in distress. After a thorough examination and bloodwork, we discovered that Fuego has a urethral obstruction more commonly known as a blocked bladder —a serious, painful, and potentially life-threatening condition. This condition can cause a rapid decline in a pet’s health, and without treatment, it can be fatal.

Fuego was immediately hospitalized, receiving heat therapy, IV fluids, medications, and a urinary catheter to relieve the blockage. He will need to keep the catheter in place for several days to ensure proper recovery. Once removed, Fuego will need to urinate on his own and will require a very specific urinary prescription diet for the rest of his life to prevent future issues.

We are committed to giving Fuego the care he needs, but his treatment comes with significant costs. We are asking for your support to help cover his hospitalization, medications, and prescription food. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a huge difference in Fuego’s recovery.

If you are unable to donate, we ask that you please share Fuego’s story and send positive vibes his way. Fuego needs all the love and support he can get, and we appreciate any help you can offer.

Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity!

Donna and Roslyn just turned two!!

These sisters were abandoned last spring with a male cat and a little kitten. Roslyn (left) is an independent lady with a lot of s***k. She will tell you when she wants attention and otherwise she likes to be left to do her own thing. Donna will be your best friend as long as there is food involved! 😹

Both of these ladies do well with the other cats in the shelter and would be a good addition to any home, although Roslyn may do better in a home without young children.

If you’d like to give them a home to spend their birthday in, fill out an application below! These girls are not bonded, but do get along well!

Today we wish a happy 8th birthday to Violet!! 🥳

Violet has been in our care since she was eight weeks old. She was found under a pile of debris in a shed, including a plank that had fallen and paralyzed her. Our director fostered her ever since. With our new remodel, we are very fortunate to have new spaces and resources to house Violet comfortably! After all, we’re a sanctuary, and provide longterm options to any cats that need it.

Violet loves her new room, and especially enjoys when visitors stop in to pay her special attention. You’ll probably find her snuggled up in one of her favorite beds.

Make sure to stop by today from 1:00-4:00 to wish Violet a happy birthday!! We’ll see you then! 🤩

Do you have a kitten in need of a friend? Rock LOVES babies!! Whenever new kittens move in, he is the first one to snuggle up with them. He is slow to warm up to people, but quick to adapt to new feline friends. If your cat needs a buddy, you can’t go wrong with Rock!

Stop in today from 1:00-4:00 to meet him or put in an app below! 🤩

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.
