Little Kit Kat (above) was just 4 weeks old when she was found by the mother of one of our volunteers. Kit Kat weighed less than 2lbs, had an eye infection and was dehydrated. Our volunteer took Kit Kat in and fostered her for 6 months. As you can see from the picture below, Kit Kat is now a healthy, beautiful cat. All of our volunteers take pride in what they do for Cats in Need. Fostering is just one of many wonderful things our volunteers do for our organization. |

Special Needs cats are wonderful and unique pets, but they are in need of special humans who are patient and devoted to taking care of them. Below is a list of most common cat related subjects. Please be sure to check this site often as we will add more information. Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) Feline Infectious Peritonist (FIP) Tips on Taming Feral Cats and Kittens Caring for Feral Cats (pdf file) Older Cats make wonderful companions and there are many benefits to adopting one instead of a kitten. Kittens are cute and adorable, but they are no different than children. They need supervision and they need to be protected. An adult cat can pretty much take care of itself. Also, an older cat has already developed its personality and you’ll know a lot sooner if the cat is a good match for you and your family. Also consider your current lifestyle when choosing to adopt a cat. If you are a busy professional or you travel a lot, a kitten might not be a wise choice.

Older cats are fun too! Quigley was 7 years old when he came to Cats in Need. He was with us for a few weeks before he was adopted. |
