WHO WE ARE
The New Mexico Chapter of FELINES & FRIENDS was formed in 2001 and registered with the New Mexico PRC in March 2002.
As a "Second Chance" Organization, the NM Chapter of Felines & Friends works with the Santa Fe and Espanola shelters by accepting special needs cats, such as kittens who are too young for placement or need to be socialized, and adults who have health or behavioral issues... most of which can be resolved with loving attention and time.
To date, we have found homes for over 2,000 cats and dogs.
In 2009, food, supplies, vet care and medicines cost us an average of $274 per cat; but we request an adoption fee of only $100
Felines & Friends relies solely on donations and 100% of funds collected are used for the vet care and supplies for the cats. We are a 501(c)(3) non profit organization and gratefully accept donations of any amount, which are tax deductible.

FOOD AND LITTER NEEDED!
We need donations of canned and dry food, clay or pine
litter, or gift cards with which we can purchase
much-needed supplies for our foster homes as well as
low-income families who ask for help with food so they
can keep their pets. Both Dog and Cat food welcome.
JOIN OUR GODPURRENT PROGRAM
FELINES & FRIENDS tries to help every needy cat, even
though many of them are considered
"non-adoptable" because of age, medical
condition or temperament. We attempt to find permanent
foster homes for these orphans and take care of them
food, veterinary care, litter, etc. for the rest of their
lives. Needless to say, our expenses far exceed our
income.
FELINES & FRIENDS Godpurrent Program provides funding
for the care of these cats. You can become a Godpurrent
to the cat of your choice for as little as $25.00 a
month. Your money goes directly to the care of that cat.
Your money is not used for administrative costs, postage
or salaries. In return for your generosity, FELINES &
FRIENDS Foster Family will send you anecdotes,
information and updates on the condition of your little
friend.
You're sponsorship is a tax deductible
charitable contribution. The Godpurrent Program is
perfect for those who wish to help, but cannot personally
take in a cat.
SUPPORT THE "LUCKY FUND"
In honor of the dog that was rescued last year and who
required several surgiers performed by Dr. Bob Gruda, we
have started The Lucky Fund so that we can have monies set
aside for the next dog or cat who needs life-saving
surgery. If you would like to help, please send a check to
our mailing address or donate on line and note that the
donation is for The Lucky Fund.
PETCO on Cerrillos Rd is our permanent Adoption Center
Cats are displayed throughout the week on a rotating basis in new comfortable space thanks to Petco assigning the old "bird room" to us .

FOSTER HOMES
We are a "shelterless" shelter!
This means that we rely 100% on foster homes in Santa Fe.
If you have room and in your heart and home for an extra
furry, please let us know. Even if you only live here part
time, we would love to hear from you.
TRANSPORT: Do you
commute between Santa Fe or Albuquerque and other cities?
Would you be willing to take a cat as a "carry
on". Except for Southwest Air, most airlines allow
cats in carriers or Sherpa Bags; if you fly on a charter or
your own plane... even better. Believe it or not, we
sometimes find great homes for cats in other states, but
need a safe way to transport them. Sending them in the
cargo hold is not an option for us...it is just too
traumatic and dangerous.
HOW TO ADOPT
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING, PLEASE FILL OUT OUR
PRE-ADOPTION QUESTIONNAIRE AT THE FOLLOWING LINK http://www.felinesandfriends.org/forms/preadopt.htm
IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE TO YOUR APPLICATION WITHIN
24 HOURS, PLEASE CALL 316-2281 OR E-MAIL US at
askfelinesandfriends@yahoo.com IMMEDIATELY AS WE ARE
EXPERIENCING TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES WITH OUR ON-LINE
APPLICATION.
The minimum adoption donation we request is $100
and goes towards covering a check-up by our vet, FELV/FIV
test, vaccinations, sterilization, deworming, microchip,
collar & tag. It does not cover the cost of food and
supplies while waiting for a new home and our overall cost of
rescue is often far in excess of this amount.

LOW COST SPAY/NEUTER IS AVAILABLE!
For an appointment, please call
Santa Fe Animal Shelter's Spay/Neuter Clinic at 474-6422
The clinic is open from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm every Monday, Tuesday, and Friday, as well as the first and third Thursdays and second and fourth Saturdays of each month. Vaccination clinics are held each Friday from 8 am to 11:30 am and 1 pm to 4 pm.
MOVING FORWARD FOR FELINES!
Thanks to the generous gift of an anonymous donor this program is designed to raise the profile of cats in our communities by helping to fund spay and neuter. This fund will allow those who need it most to receive spay/neueter services for even less than our already-low prices. For only a $10 co-pay in most cases, owners can ensure that their cat stays healthier and doesn't increase the population of unwanted cats already filling our community by getting spayed or neutered in our high-quality clinic.
PLEASE NOTE: This offer is only available at the Santa Fe Animal Shelter Spay/Neuter Clinic. To take advantage of this offer if you qualify, please request it at the time of scheduling surgery. Funds are limited each month, so act now!

HAPPY TAILS
We leave adopted cats on our site because we have found that if someone who is looking for a cat to adopt likes the look or personality of one of these cats, we can often help make a match with another cat in need of a home at one of the shelters in our area.
