Contribute (YOU Can Make a Difference)
We are desperately in need of donations if The Cat House is to survive.
It costs us $1 per day to feed and provide for a cat, and with over 700 residents, we need all the help we can get!
Please give whatever you can, and rest asssured that your donation is being used to help the animals (we're a thrifty lot!). All donations are tax-deductible under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (EIN 27-0015288), and receipts are available upon request.

If your employer has a matching gift program, you can double the value of your donation! Many large companies match employee charitable contributions and all you have to do to double the value of your donation to us is to fill out their form and send it in.
Donate Stock
There are several tax advantages to making a charitable gift of appreciated securities. You may hold appreciated stock and don't intend to sell it primarily because of the substantial capital gains tax due when an individual sells the stock.
As an example, if you bought stock for $1,000 several years ago and it is now worth $20,000. If you sold the $20,000 stock, you would pay capital gains tax on the $19,000 gain in value. However if you donate the stock you avoid paying capital gains tax and the full fair market value of stock qualifies for a charitable income tax deduction as permitted by law.
When the charity sells the stock, there is no capital gains tax due and the charity receives the full $20,000.
Make a Memorial or Tribute Donation
You may make a tribute donation in honor of, or in memory of, a person or pet. We will send an acknowledgement card to the person you choose and will display the tribute on our Memorial or Tribute page.
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.

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.

Cat 8472
This little guy came to us along with several other cats from a hoarding situation. He is an awesome cat who loves to play and likes giving and receiving attention. He had a rough start in life, but after being here with us for a bit he blossomed into a fun-loving cat. Kitten 8472 will fit into any type of home or family. This amazing cat needs a sponsor!

Jimmy
Stray Ear tipped at NVP. Tested at Cat House. Stray from the news station. A sponsor would be appreciated.

Wilt7645(kumar)
This fellow was left displaced and luckily his neighbor found sanctuary with us. He's a very reserved cat, and soon he will get to enjoy his life at The Cat House. A sponsor would be appreciated.

Sam
feral colony cat - lost his home Sam arrived at the feral colony 4-5 years ago. He is a mellow, shy cat who gets along well with others and stays out of trouble. He lost his home at the feral colony when the land owner made plans to remove all the cats. I trapped him and took him home.

Candy
Candy is a Tortoiseshell short-tail cat who enjoys other cats but she's a wee bit wary of people and noise (and noisy people!) She is quite the explorer and climber and can often be seen up a tree, on a bench, or even on top of some fence posts! She would really appreciate a sponsor.

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.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.
