I found a cat, what do I do?!

We try to reply to every email and message but as I am only one person, sometimes it is impossible to reply to every one in a timely manner. If you have found a kitten or sick cat here are some suggestions as to what to do if we are unavailable: 



​

Caring for a kitten: 
Kitten Lady is amazing. Her videos taught us most of what we know. We recommend watching them to learn how to care for cats and kittens:
