ROCKY SAYS WE ALWAYS NEED MORE VOLUNTEERS.

Rocky really did sit down on that chair at our front desk
during one of his visits with his owner, a volunteer.
No trick photography was needed.

ADOPTIONS

Our cats and kittens are not in cages,
so you can walk around the main rooms
and have a seat on one of our benches.
You won't be alone for long!
Our cats are already spayed or neutered,
checked by a vet, had all inoculations.
(if over 4 months old),
and tested for FIV and FELV.

ADOPTION FEES

Who says you can't buy love?

We collect $100, either cash or check, for each cat.
Think about how much more money you'd spend
for spay/neuter, blood tests
and inoculations at the vet.
A two week health warranty is included.
Some special breeds may be more than $100.
Sorry we cannot take credit cards or give refunds.

SPONSORSHIPS

Since there are many people who want to adopt but can't
for various reasons, we offer a sponsorship program.
Look at the photos above for Tricia with Zane,
Juan with Zane, Tamara, Dystiny,
Sadie, Connie, Cass and Harley.
These cats have been with us for many years.
Some are not likely to ever be adopted,
so Grateful Paw is their home.
Zane is an angel now looking down on his dear buddies whom he loved so much.

For only $30 per year, you can sponsor a cat.
Your donation goes directly to the medical care of cats at our shelter.
You get a picture of the cat you are helping,
and you are welcome to visit your cat.
A great gift idea and a very meaningful
gift given in someone's memory.

DONATIONS of course are always welcome
Items such as Fancy Feast or 9 Lives cans of cat food, Deli Cat dry food,
paper towels, small paper plates, large kitchen or lawn bags,
bleach & detergent are always needed here.

EVERY DAY IS TAG DAY.

I'm Tex, and I just happen to sell stylish collars
here in case you need some for your pets.
April 4th is officially Every Day is Tag Day,
but hey, let me repeat, EVERY DAY!
Even if your pet stays in your house, you'd never
want him to accidentally scoot out un-tagged!
Please, tag or microchip your pets. Of course,
only one collar with a tag is needed for each pet.
