Cat Club
Welcome to the Cat Club! We have been an active club in the Village for almost 50 years, and over those many years have found homes for thousands of cats. We are passionate about our cats and their well-being, and operate our club professionally to make sure these furry creatures have the loving homes they so deserve.
You may count on us to support you either in finding that perfect cat to share your life, or in finding a new home for your cat.
Or, in the joy of becoming a Foster – that temporary care-giver we count on so much. We are here to help you share the love.
