Simply apply for a ShelterCare Pet Insurance Program by using the ShelterCare banner-link. Here’s how it works: ShelterCare Pet Insurance Programs cover you when your pet needs essential veterinary care from an illness or injury. Also, every time a completed application for a ShelterCare program is generated through our shelter’s website, we automatically receive a $25 donation to help cover common needs like blankets, litter and food. This donation is at no extra cost to you and provides us with essential funds. Make the right move and enroll today!

Who We Are

We are a Non-Profit 501(c)3 All-Volunteer All-Spay/Neuter No-Kill Cat Rescue Organization primarily serving Seaford and Western Sussex County. Our purpose is to further the process of Delaware becoming a no-kill state, through the twin goals of 1) reducing cat procreation / overpopulation, and 2) reducing the euthanizing of cats and kittens, especially those that are tame and healthy. We coordinate a Low-Income Spay/Neuter program, and also coordinate a Trap/Neuter/Release (TNR) endeavor for feral cats. In addition, we facilitate adoptions of kittens, 8 weeks and older, and cats, all of which are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. To further serve the community, we sponsor annual low-cost Rabies & Distemper Vaccination Clinics in the Fall, which serve as fund-raisers to support our rescue efforts. We are always seeking fun ways to raise funds. Our future goals include a cat and kitten adoption facility, a feral cat sanctuary, and an educational outreach for school age children. We are building a network of cat rescuers in Sussex County, and always welcome new volunteers! People that can participate either on a continual basis or just every so often, from a few hours a week to one day a year, could be of great assistance to our efforts! If you are interested in becoming a Helper, by donating and/or volunteering, please contact us!

PEDIATRIC SPAY/NEUTER
There are at least 11 national organizations which endorse sterilization surgery for all kittens 8 weeks and older, prior to their adoption. Below are the links to 10 national organizations' specific WebPages on this topic, by its various names: Pediatric Spay/Neuter, Juvenile Spay/Neuter, Pre-Adoption Sterilization, Early Neutering, and Prepuberal Gonadectomy. (Also, The American Kennel Club has endorsed this protocol in a video produced by the American Humane Association, although they do not have a webpage endorsement.)
