We are getting upwards of 50 calls a week from people looking to dump their pet cats. This is desperate for the cats because people are not willing to tackle the challenges arising from cat ownership.

Place for Cats is a very small network of a handful of foster homes with an extremely modest budget. Put simply, we lack:
