Cat Connection is an all volunteer, registered non-profit organization, with 501c3 tax exempt status. CCC does not receive public funding and is supported entirely by donations. All donations and the receipts from adoptions go towards paying veterinary bills and maintaining the cats in our care. There are no paid employees and with no shelter overheads are at a minimum.
Rescued cats are accepted from members of the public and from other non-profit animal welfare organizations. Household cats may also be accepted, on a space available basis, in cases where the owner can no longer offer care due to illness, homelessness, death, etc
Cat Connection does not have a shelter. All cats are cared for in foster homes until ready for adoption and or space becomes available in PetsMart.
All cats are health checked by our vet. Cats and kittens are not put up for adoption until they are spayed/neutered, tested for FIV and FeLV, checked and treated (if necessary) for fleas, ear mites, intestinal parasites or any other medical condition and given age appropriate vaccinations.
Cats are offered for adoption through TriCounty PetsMart and www.petfinder.com. Adoptors are screened, asked to sign a binding contract and charged an adoption fee.
All Cat Connection cats are adopted out as indoor cats only.
Cat Connection does not permit the adoption of kittens (12 weeks and younger) into homes where there are children 5 years of age and younger.
