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

✨✨ Hello 2025 ✨✨

Our medical pin series continues this year, kicking off 2025 with our cuddly crew SURVIVORS, Tiara and T-Pain. They have officially cleared their calicivirus quarantine and are working hard to catch up on gaining weight and growing strong!

These babies are fighters and survivors, and we are so excited to celebrate them. Their litter survival rate was expected to be 18% and standing at 40%, we beat the odds. Our dedicated medical team provided around the clock care and in a few short weeks, they will be available for adoption!

Join in on the fun and grab your pin to support their care! We’ve appreciated your support every step of the way!

Are you a sucker for black kitties?

Ringo has been with us for nearly 3 years. She’s a quiet gal that keeps to herself, loves her wet food and would love a quiet home to nap in.

She’s an all around great girl and would make a wonderful lap cat. She’s nearly 5 years old. We have plenty of adoption appointments open this week! Put in an app for Ringo! 🥺🤞🏻

We were very fortunate to have FIVE sponsorships this holiday season. That means someone paid the adoption fee of these five cats so that whomever takes them home can take them for free!

Donna ~2yo female left in a carrier with her sister and single kitten last spring. She is sweet, cuddly, vocal and would be a great lap cat.

Dorset ~4yo female that has spent her whole life with us. Enjoys climbing, wet food and being the center of attention.

Whiplash ~4yo female FIP Warrior. She is a chatty cathy, loves attention and must go home to a family with another cat to keep her company.

Tick & Tock ~3yo sisters surrendered after losing their owner. They went to a socialization foster and have made a lot of progress. We’d like them to go together with someone willing to give them time to adjust to a new environment.

Fees are WAIVED, but applications are still required! Put yours in now and give one of these longtime residents their forever home!

Nearly two years ago, we took in 7 undersocialized cats after their owner passed away. 5 of them are still here!

Sisters, Tick and Tock, rely on each other for companionship. They have really come a long way with allowing us to approach and love on them, but they still need someone who will be willing to give them the time they need to warm up!

These ladies are approx 3 years old and are ready to find their forever. Could that be you? Apply now! ⬇️

Whiplash just celebrated her fourth birthday with us and we’re hoping the next one is in her furever home.

She is a:
Chatterbox ✅
FIP Warrior✅
Social gal ✅

Whippy was one of our first successful FIP cases and has had a clean bill of health ever since. She was adopted once, and as the only cat in the home, became quite lonely. She will need to go home to a house with friends and lots of love!

Can Whiplash close out 2024 as our 200th adoption?! Put that app in now! ⬇️

An update from Superman and Homer’s foster…they are available for home to home meet and greet as the shelter is a high stress area for them❤️ https://orphanangels.org/adoption-application/

Orlando, Billy, and Lenny are still waiting for their forever homes! Look how sweet they are ❤️ You can find the link to put in your adoption application here! ⬇️ https://orphanangels.org/adoption-application/

Do you remember Ariana? She has been in foster, where we have been trying to figure out her case. She went to a neurologist, and they said she needed an MRI, but we thought we had the seizures under control. Unfortunately, the seizures came back. Then, they go away for a little bit. But then they come back. When they come back, they are more violent and traumatic each time. So our vet is recommending we do the MRI. If you are able, please donate towards her care so that we can get the diagnostics she desperately needs. https://www.orphanangels.org/product/shelter-donation/126 ❤️PayPal: http://PayPal.me/OrphanAngels 💜Venmo: @Orphan-Angels 💙Kindful: http://Orphanangels.kindful.com 💚Linktree: http://Linktree.com/orphanangels 💛Checks can be mailed to: 5439 W Lake Road Erie PA 16505

Kohler is ready for adoption!
Kohler is ready for adoption!

Remember Kohler?! He was hit by a car, had previously been shot, and was scared of humans. Well... he is now available for adoption! He is healed, neutered, microchipped, and is loving life! Apply below to set up a meet and greet! We can't think of a more deserving sweet boy https://orphanangels.org/adoption-application/

September 22-28 is National Dog Week We are always sharing pictures of our cats, but let's see your cat's canine friends! Share your loving, quirky, and love/hate canine friends of your felines. 🐈 🐕

Kohler Update Our hit by car on Clear the Shelter day He was ready. We did a bullet removal and he got neutered. He is in foster and doing so well!!! We couldn't be any happier with his progress. He deserves this new indoor life beginning. ❤️

Kohler update! We are pleased to share the most positive news possible. His condition has been stabilized, with no indication of hernia or fractures. While he still requires neurological care for a head injury, his swift improvement is a direct result of your collective support. We thank you for your positive thoughts, donations, and for sharing his journey. Your contributions are making a significant impact. We are overjoyed to confirm that he is expected to make a complete recovery. At some point in his life, he was shot. It is an old injury and showed up on the x-ray. We are so happy he is off the street away from all of the dangerous situations that come with it. ❤️

We had such a great weekend with clear the shelter but rescue never stops. During our event, we got a call about a kitty that was hit by a car. We knew by the callers tone that this was urgent and he needed us. Meet Kohler. He was hit by a car with obvious signs of head and interal trauma. He has head swelling, bleeding behind his eye, possible fractured pelvis, and possible diaphragmatic hernia. We addresses his pain and bleeding immediately. We were able to do an ultrasound to check on his organs but he goes to the vet first thing this morning to determine the extent of his injuries. With a construction project, limited available fosters, limited space, and funds always a concern, we knew we still needed to help him. He is an intact male and we suspect living the stray life. Once we get him through this, he won't have to worry about surviving the streets any longer. Kohler is now a part of the Orphan Angels family and he has an amazing team of people helping him but we need your help. He has a long road ahead of him. He could use all the vibes you can send! Due to our medical facility limitations, we are outsourcing to the vet and any donations will go towards his care. We will continue to update you on his journey.

As our walls come down, emotions flood. We all have great memories within these walls. Blood, sweat, and tears have kept this place going. Dug up SOME memories over the last few years. We truly can't wait to have our remodel with a design dedicated to the cats. But also, they sure did have a great time within these walls when we worked with what we had. We made it work, and I think every cat that came to us appreciates everyones dedication. We sure do!

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.
