(June 23, 2010) We are in the process of getting permanent cages in PETCO so our adoptables are there on display during the week and not just on Saturdays. This could be BIG!!

(December 13th & 14th, 2009) We had two terrific adoption days at PETCO on Saturday and Sunday. With Santa photos and a grand re-opening of the PETCO store, we found homes for 10 cats one day and 5 more the next! This broke our record for adoptions over a two day span. Thanks to PETCO and all those who helped us have so much success.
(Aug. 7th, 2009) Our dream of a permanent shelter remains a dream as our PETCO Foundation grant request was denied. Anyone have $100G's just laying around? We could put it to good use!
(June 30th, 2009) We have just completed an application for a capital grant from the PETCO Foundation to fund a permanent shelter for our cats and kittens. This facility would be used as an adoption center as well as a low-cost spay/neuter and vaccination clinic. Keep your fingers crossed that they find us worthy of funding. This shelter would be a dream come true and could help many felines and feline owners in the surrounding communities.
In February 2009, believe it or not, we were down to one cat in our adoption program. Every other cat had been placed. But now that kitten season is back in full swing, our shelter is filling up again. Adoptions are picking up as people are wanting kittens. We continue to have success at PETCO in Bloomington-Normal on Saturdays. We are blessed that we can meet the needs of the animals and the requests new owners. Thank you for your continued support!
One of our new friends, Kathryn Capley, is an awesome and unique animal sculptor/artist. She donated one of her metal cat sculptures for us to raffle off.
The sculpture raffle was held at her home on May 3rd, 2008 and raised over $900 and was won by Joanna Norton of Heyworth. She purchased her winning raffle ticket at the "Home Show" at the Interstate Center and was really excited about winning the sculpture.
Thank you to all of the people that purchased tickets to help in our fundraising efforts! Again, thank you to Kathryn and Sterile Feral for all of their help in the raffle. We couldn't have done it without you.
The proceeds of our raffle will be used to purchase medical and surgical supplies to help cats in our adoption program and to provide spay/neuter assistance to low income families and feral colony managers.
