Let’s help save some lives!!!! Who’s in the market for some working cats? Their payment consists of water, food, and some type of shelter availability! We have some really hard working cats that are eager to get to work. These cats can all be picked up, pet… but prefer to be independent and not cuddly.

If you have a workshop, barn, etc. please consider coming to offer a home for a cat in need! They have all been spayed/neutered, ear tipped and vaccinated!

Who’s ready to help save some lives and put these cats to work? Please come in this week!! Adoption fees have been sponsored!!!

Thanks to everyone that helped to find these babies homes. Remember, we are here for the animals!
