This is the fundraiser for the cat caretaker of these remaining 17 cats:

I have been caring for these 17 cats for the past two years in my warehouse. I am now in need of a safe haven for these cats. These cats were living with a hoarder who had over 75 cats/kittens living in unimaginable conditions. The hoarder, although he meant well, was obviously not doing right by these cats. Sadly, not all 75 survived. I took in all the cats and kittens and had every one of them vetted and spayed/neutered. I worked with his vet to help rehome all the kittens and many of the adult cats into wonderful homes. There are now 17 remaining. I built a cattery in the warehouse where I have been providing them with a wonderful and safe living environment. I have been caring for these beautiful cats for years at my own cost. I have reached out to many groups, but no one has been able to help. My landlord was tolerant of the cats but now I am being forced to leave my office/warehouse and the cats have no place to go.

They are all between 2-7yrs old. Some are bonded, but most are not. They are not feral; they have never lived outdoors. They are shy but very sweet. They will require patience and love. They are all healthy, up to date on all and have been tested and chipped.

I am finally working with a local Animal Rescue group, the only one who offered to help after many requests. We have found a cat sanctuary that will take some in where they will live for the rest of their lives if they cannot be adopted. This requires a large donation per cat. The others will remain in a special built cattery but we need funds to care for them. I have donated a good sum, but funds and supplies are needed as the rescue group, as most rescue groups have no funds. It has been extremely challenging for animal rescue groups the past few years. Too many animals in need of homes and not enough people looking for animals to adopt. We need more funds to care for these cats. Please help me reach my goal of $7500 to keep these cats safe.
