KATMOM/DOGDAD Rescue

Our Adoptable Pet List

Click to see our events!

Last month a very nice older lady was removed from her home and placed in an assisted living facility by APS. She had 12 cats that have been given to KATMOM in order to help them find homes. All 12 of these loving cats will be out at Super Adoptions at PETSMART this saturday and sunday. We have found new homes for many of these loving cats but we still have 6 that need new furever homes! Their names are Bubbles, Lucy, Rapunzel, Thomas II, and Peek-a-boo.

Our Featured Pet Cat...

Our Cat of the month is "Sparkle"

Sparkle is good with children and cats. She was a good mom. She is a very quiet cat and stays out of trouble. She is a love, would prefer to be an only cat and likes to sleep in her own chair. Is a tiny bit shy but warms up quickly. Sparkle was born on 6/24/2008

Our Dog of the month is "Oscar"

Oscar is a very sweet and playful boy. He is very attentive and always aims to please. He comes right away when called, sits, lays down and shakes. He goes into his crate on command and he is housebroken. His previous owner neglected him and would leave him in his backyard for days without food and as such he learned how to get out of the yard to go look for food, now that Oscar is being fed on a regular basis he no longer tries to get out of the yard. He is very sweet and submissive with another dog that he is currently fostering with. Oscar is a lot leaner in his build than many pit bulls are and he has the unique trait of having one blue eye and one brown eye. We believe that Oscar is about 18 months old.



NEWS

Katmom would like to give a big THANK YOU to 1800PetMeds for their donations to our rescue group. You can go to Pet Meds for more information on their pet meds, programs, and blog information.

KATMOM ALSO HAS BARN CATS TO PLACE. These cats do not have an adoption fee. We prefer that these cats go in groups of TWO OR MORE.

Please contact us at info@katmom.com for more information.

Currently we DO NOT have a TNR or Spay/Neuter program at this time. We are trying to gain grant money to return these very valuable programs to our rescue group.

WHO WE ARE

KATMOM is a non-profit, no-kill organization founded in 2003 to reduce the population of unwanted pets. Since there are so many feral and semi-feral cats wandering the streets of our neighborhoods, KATMOM decided to help take care of those animals. In the few years KATMOM has been in existence, we have successfully trapped, neutered and returned many animals back to their colonies, preventing thousands of unwanted litters of kittens. As KATMOM has grown, we now rescue abandoned, abused, and homeless cats and kittens.

If we are to accomplish more this year we will need more help from all of you. All KATMOMs animals are tested, vaccinated, wormed, spayed/neutered, and micro-chipped before being placed in loving homes. KATMOM is operated entirely by volunteers and has no paid employees. Our major source of funding is monetary donations from people like you. Other funding is obtained through adoption fees. You can help us by Spaying/neutering your pets. Donations can also be made through adoption events and by contacting us through e-mail. Please contact us at
info@katmom.com for more information on how you can donate.

Thanks for your support!

Dogdad grew out of Katmom's rescue efforts. We began rescuing small dogs and puppies when we would go and rescue cats and kittens on location. Since Dogdad's inception, we have networked with Animal Control offices up and down the State of California saving many dogs from the fate of the state system.


BY THE NUMBERS

In the few years KATMOM has been in existence, we have successfully trapped, neutered and returned many animals back to their colonies; as a result; we saved unwanted litters being born over the lifetime of these cats.

From 2003 through 2005 Katmom TNR over 250 cats and adopted out 580 cats and kittens.

In 2006-07 KATMOM was able to TNR more than 200 cats and was able to place over 1100 cats and kittens into loving homes.

In 2006-07 Dogdad was also able to rescue and place 250 dogs into new loving homes.

So far in 2008 we have TNR 100 cats and placed over 300 cats/kittens and 30 dogs into new loving homes.
