Sponsor a Cat or Dog
We know that some of our cats, for whatever reasons — old age, trauma, or medical problems — will never be adopted and will spend their lives here. We cherish these kitties and always want to be able to provide the best for them. We promised them that they would never again have to worry about having enough food to eat, a warm bed in which to snuggle, or a caring human to give them lots of love and to take care of their health.
We also realize that some of you may not be able to adopt one of our cats but would like to be , able to help them out. That's why we have the SPONSOR-A-CAT program. You can become a sponsor for just $15 a month. Your donation helps pay for the basic needs of each cat during his/her stay with us. You can see your sponsored cat's story and latest picture via the Sponsor Check-in form on the right side of this page. You are also welcome (and encouraged!) to visit us and "your" cat as often as you can. The cats do remember frequent visitors, and enjoy the individual love and attention their sponsors provide.
To sponsor a cat or dog, please choose one of them from the Sponsors Needed section on the right, click on the Sponsor link and then fill out the simple online form or email us if you want to sponsor a cat or dog who is not currently listed.

Volunteer Your Time and Skills
Come to The Cat House and help us care for the cats! The Cat House couldn't operate without our wonderful volunteers, and we always need more! We offer a variety of volunteer opportunities and try to match each person's skills with the activities they most enjoy. Volunteers of any age are welcome, but volunteers under 15 years of age must be accompanied by an adult. Please fill out out online volunteer form if you are interested in helping with any of the following:
- Shelter Workers and Cat Cuddlers assist the staff in caring for our cats. They groom, cuddle and play with the cats and kittens, scoop poop, clean, sweep, and mop, in general ensure that our shelter is clean and the animals get all of the affection and socialization they need.
- Adoption Volunteers help us place more cats and kittens into permanent homes by coordinating off-site adoptions in Fresno. Duties include screening potential adopters, unloading cats and kittens from carriers into cages, keeping cages neat and clean, and loading everything up at the end of the day.
- We desperately need Foster Parents! Being a foster mom or dad to a litter of kittens, or a mama cat with kittens is a wonderful experience, and critical to the little ones' lives. If you're interested, please fill out our online foster application to tell us about yourself and your home.
- Fundraisers are needed year round. We welcome ideas and suggestions to build our financial resources so that we can continue to improve and operate the shelter. We also need volunteers to assist at fundraising events, such as yard sales, open houses and Super Adoption, throughout the year. Fundraising is another opportunity for those with limited time to help.

Sponsors Needed
We make a reasonable and good faith effort to keep track of all of the cats in our 12 acre sanctuary, but for practical and logistical reasons our ability to locate and keep updated records on every animal is not always possible. Please note that some cats may be sponsored by more than one person, but rest assured that all sponsor funds are used for the ongoing care of our cats. We reserve the right, when necessary, to substitute cats.
Dax
Hello everyone, my name is Dax! I am a large, magnificent creature, but some people just can't see that...some say black cats are "less adoptable"..and that is my story, I was not adopted as a kitten so I have been living here my whole life...that is OK with me...I LOVE it here, and I want to stay, however I need a sponsor, a kind stranger that will help with my living expenses. Are YOU that kind person that will help me....PLEASE??????
Cat 6458 (Ernie)
This Little persian guy is very "persiany". He came to us from the CCSPCA. When he came he was not in the best of health so, he went directly to Lynea the owner of The Cat House on the Kings were he recieved the best medical care and some TLC. After Lynea worked her magic he was sent to the kitten Q adoption Center. Now he is waiting patiently for his new owner to come along and get him. If you love BIG bulging eyes, a very large roundy head, and an extremely mushy face then you must be the one for him. He looks so much better than he did when he first came. We here at The Cat House on the Kings hope that this will be one of our many Zeros to heros stories that we can share for many years to come. We also feel that he would do best as either an only cat or maybe the second cat in a persian lovers home. But the sad truth is Ernie will probably not be adopted, so this great guy really needs a sponsor...can you be that special human in Ernie's life?
Munchin
Munchin is the result of another thoughtless human hording cats. However he is one of the lucky ones, he made it out alive and was brought here to live a quality life. Won't you please help us provide for this gorgeous boy...please sponsor Munchin.
TENDERHEART
This gorgeous boy is a feral trapped by a good citizen that had been feeding him but now has to move. Tenderheart is not a candidate for adoption, so he really needs a sponsor, a special person that understands that while he will never come up to them for belly rubs or ear scratches he is indeed a magnificent cat that derserves a quality life.
Growly
Growly was named for his insistence on growling and hissing at his caretakers continuously.

Each year we hear the same sad stories: "We didn't think she was outside that long", "They said she was too young", and "I thought I could find homes for all of them." Because of these excuses, we have plenty of kittens in need of foster homes.
We are currently updating our list of cats (and dogs) who need a foster home. Please check back soon. You can can fill out our foster application in advance and we will be in touch as soon as we have a cat in need of a foster home.Affiliate Partners
