Our Story
For more than twenty years Pet World has donated the space for the Kitty City Adoption Center to our sponsor, Stray Pets in Need. Designed with cats in mind, the facility is two multi level rooms connected by an overhead “tunnel” allowing the cats and kittens freedom of movement and choice twenty-four hours a day. Cats of most personality types thrive in the environment where they are able to eat, sleep, play and explore at will. If they enjoy the company of other cats, they can choose to socialize. If they prefer to be alone, the facility provides hammocks, beds, a cat tree and many one-cat-sized perches for some peace and quiet. As many as twenty-five cats and kittens can live happily together in Kitty City while waiting for their forever homes. As of today, 8877 cats and kittens have been placed in homes from this unique habitat.
In addition to donating the space for Kitty City, Pet World also employs the day-to-day cat caretakers and the Kitty City Manager/Adoption Specialist. Assisted by several Stray Pets in Need volunteers, the cats never lack for attention! Pet World customers and interested adopters are encouraged to visit inside the Adoption Center to play with and interact with the cats. Many cats have found new homes after being introduced, up close and personal, to that special person. We believe that there is a special bond that occurs between human and feline and that bond is harder to identify when a cat or kitten is confined to a kennel or limited to a photograph on a website. An Adoption Specialist is on hand six days a week to facilitate those special connections.
The Kitty City adoption process is pleasant and relaxed. Potential adopters are asked about their preferences, their lifestyles and living situations. We match the people to the cats based on our knowledge of the cat’s personality, age and history. Before approving an adoption we must see that the human/feline bond occurs and have no qualms about refusing an adoption if we believe it is not in the best interest of the animal. Cats are, contrary to popular belief, social creatures. Whenever possible we encourage multi-cat households and adopt kittens in pairs unless there are already other cats in the household. When we receive bonded pairs of adult cats to be placed for adoption, we make a point of adopting them together regardless of how long it takes to find them a home. We place special needs cats, senior cats and cats with quirky personalities into understanding, qualified forever homes and offer a lifelong support system for all of our adoptees.
