Volunteer
Volunteer time or resources to help us. There are lots of ways you can help homeless cats outside of adoption or fostering.
Foster
We are committed to finding foster care for cats, whether they are abandoned, neglected, homeless, and/or have special needs.
Adopt
Being small gives us the opportunity to know each cat – their personality, what they like to eat, and how they like to play.
Donate
Your monetary donations – which are tax deductible – enable Furry Friends to continue our rescue program and community outreach.

Ren’s Story
This is Ren (we called him Sadness because he always looked sad). Today (August 4) we had to be there for him while he crossed the Rainbow Bridge. He was my bottle baby and has been with me since he was a tiny baby. After many tests it was concluded that he had Intussusception which is where a part of his intestines slid into another part. This caused him to go into sepsis and his best option was to be humanely euthanized. He would not have survived the surgery he would have needed to repair it. Jesse was with him holding him. It's heart breaking to lose him but at least he was loved while he was here. He was such a funny, sweet little boy. Rest in peace little sadness

“Although she’s extremely playful and has a lot of energy, she simply ADORES people and wants to be with us all of the time. She greets strangers with ‘open arms’ and always manages to finds a chest to lie on whenever we’re watching movies on TV.

Furry Friends Fur-Ever Tail: Pookas and the Vidmantas
“When we adopted Blackberry, we renamed him Pookas, which is similar to the Lithuanian word for ‘fluffy’ since he’s a fluffy, long-haired tux kitty,” Diane explains. “He has a brother about the same age, Karvee (cow in Lithuanian), a cow tux. Because my husband’s parents were born in Lithuania, we try to pick names that work in both languages.

- Feline Pancreatitis
Pancreatitis — inflammation of the pancreas – is relatively rare, but recognizing its signs early is essential to any cat’s health. These signs can include lethargy, increased thirst and urination, poor appetite or refusing to eat, dehydration and weight loss. What then, is the pancreas? A small organ tucked between the stomach and intestines, it […] Read more » - Excessive Tearing in CatsVeterinarians usually divide epiphora, or excessive tearing, into two categories — excessive tear production or inadequate tear drainage. Similar to our own eyes, a cat’s eyes will tear after being exposed to irritants like chemicals and dust, smoke and smog. When the irritant in question either subsides or disappears, so should the cat’s increased […] Read more »
