community members for 60

adopted within that amount
of time, just let us know

NOTE:
Our shelter always has a large number
of unwanted cats and kittens.  Would
you consider adopting two?  (Ask us
about a two-for-one deal!)  Two cats
are twice the fun - but often not twice
the work!  When you adopt two, you
give them both a friend for life!
