pets The pets listed below have special needs because of one reason or another. They need a special family who is willing to give them a chance at a good life. HELP believes every animal is precious and needs a chance despite needing a "special" home. All HELP cats are FeLV/FIV tested. They have received age appropriate vaccinations. They have been dewormed and spayed/neutered. We can tell you their good and bad habits. We will tell you! We are looking for a lifetime commitment to these cats so we look for a good match. The adoption donation is $90.00 which includes all the above.

MayKat
- This little doll baby was given a crummy hand in life. At only
6 months old, she found herself in Animal Control and worse, she was
diagnosed with Feline Leukemia and about to be killed. We were
contacted by a caring person to see if we would have room for MayKat to
come to our shelter. Unfortunately, we had just lost 2 kitties
but fortunately for MayKat, that meant there was room for her.
She is such a pleasure to be around, so fun and loving. Even
though she wont get to live a real long life, she still deserves to
live it. If you have no other cats and would consider giving
MayKat a chance, you wouldn't be disappointed. Or maybe you have
a special kitty with Feline Leukemia that would love to have a friend,
please consider MayKat. MayKat,
girl, born approx 8/07EMAIL US or

Dear
sweet soul Jackson, anyone who meets him falls in love with him.
Jackson was taken from a hoarder. A hoarder is one that has many,
many cats and cannot provide proper care for them. That is how
Jackson lost his eye. It was so diseased and causing him so much
pain that we have the veterinarian remove it. That changed him
from a timid boy to one who seeks affection, ALOT! Jackson does
have a sinus issue and unfortunately makes him go into sneezing fits
and snot goes flying......honestly, its not pretty but we know he just
cant help it. Jackson, affectionately known as One-Eyed Jack,
boy, born approx 2001.EMAIL US or

Handsome
is just that! What a gorgeous Russian Blue this boy is!
Someone moved out of their home and just left him to try and
survive. The neighbors fed him and took care of him as best they
could until someone finally decided to get him neutered. It was
then that they found out that he had Feline Leukemia. He doesnt
get along with other cats and can be very aggressive, but what a love
bug he is for people affection! Of
course, he wont get to live a long life but what a difference you could
make in the life of a kitty that wont get to live a long time!

Blond
boy is desperate for affection, he simply cannot get enough. He
will grab your hand if you stop petting him and draw it back to
him. He gets along with most other cats, but it seems that if
another cat provokes him, he gets upset and goes into a fighting
mode. He was diagnosed with Feline Leukemia about 3 yrs ago but
is still healthy as a horse, FeLV+ cats just need to be monitored for
any health concerns. Of course, he wont get to live a long life
but what a difference you could make in the life of a kitty that wont
get to live a long time! Blond Boy, boy, born approximately 2002

Brando
is the cutest big fat cheeks boy you could imagine! He is super
talkative and affectionate. He gets along great with any
other cats and loves all sorts of people. His tail had to be
partially amputated because of an injury, so big cheeks and short tail
are part of this wonderful companion package! Brando has FIV, so
he would need to be indoor only. Brando,
boy, born approximately 2004 or 2005. EMAIL US or

Chamilia
believes she is a Princess and should be treated as such, well, what
can you say, she does look like one! Chamilia is front paw
declawed and it doesnt appear that she is crazy about other cats, so an
"only" princess is called for. Chamilia,

Saffron's
the name, "where's the food bowls" the game! This gorgeous boy
came to the shelter in a trap. He was trapped in a neighborhood
scavenging for food, how sad is that? He was very frightened when
he got to the shelter and would freeze in the back of his cage, hoping
no one would notice him. We assured him that he was safe now and
he could relax and exhale. It took us a while to convince him of
that but wow, now he is relaxed! Enough so that he enjoys a good
belly rub! Saffron has tested positive for Feline Leukemia, which
means he wont live a normal life of 20 yrs but that doesnt mean he
should die now. We believe he should be able to live his life for
however long that is. We hope that someone else will feel like we
do and give this guy the family he deserves! Saffron, boy, born
approximately 2003. EMAIL US or

If
you look closely you will see that this little boy's ear is straight on
the left one. That's his "badge of courage", but technically
called an eartip. When feral cats are TNRd (trapped/neutered and
returned), they get the badge of courage so they are not trapped and
taken to the vet again. Unfortunately, Thyme was not able to be
released back to his home because the neighbors were not being kind to
animals. So, Thyme is timid of people but he is a GREAT friend to
other cats, he LOVES them. And he is getting used to people but
would need a patient family to help him trust. If you are looking
for a buddy for your kitty but dont really have extra lap time, Thyme
would be GREAT in filling that request! Thyme - boy - born
approximately 6/06..EMAIL US or

Poor
baby Skyler, he has
a food alergy and has to be on a special diet of non allergenic
food. He eats the food well but it means he has to stay in a cage
because the food cannot be fed to all the residents. He wails to
get out of the cage but then eats the others food and starts itching
which causes the raw spots. He is great with other cats and is
very social and still just a kitten. Skyler was born
approximately 5/06 and really needs a place to romp and stomp and only
have access to his special food. We know there is someone out
there that will give him what he needs.....is it you? EMAIL US or

Yeah,
I gave 'em hell, sure did, but I got it back too! So, if Gibson's
face looks funny, it's because of the wounds he suffered in a fight
before he was rescued and sent to a local veterinarian. They
fixed up his wounds (and pride) and now he is neutered and ready to go
to his new home. He is a flame point Himilayan mix. He is
very animated and affection. He adores people, he cries for
attention, oh and he will tell you if his box needs scooping.....he
doesnt like that stuff sitting around, yuk! Gibson, boy, born
approx 2002.EMAIL US or

Meet
Jordan!
You cant see well in this picture but this boy has deep blue eyes and
he is not deaf! Alot of white cats with blue eyes are.
Jordan was found with many other cats in a trailer park. He had
blood and pus all over his head. We had NO idea what was wrong
with him but he was immediately taken to the vet where they determined
that he simply had such a bad case of earmites that he had literally
scratched himself bloody and infection was setting in. He is very
healthy now except that he has tested positive for FIV. All that
means is he needs to be an indoor kitty (all kitties should be anyway)
and needs to be an only kitty or live with other FIV+. This guy
is the purrfect lap cat/couch potato. He gets along great with
other cats and would love nothing more then to be your buddy lap
cat. He is so laid back and never tears things up or causes
trouble. Wont you give this big boy the chance he deserves?

Columbo
is a gorgeous boy with unique patterns in his coat. He was
trapped in a neighborhood that was working on TNRing feral cats, but
Columbo is not feral, so he joined us at the shelter. He is a
little nervous, so he wouldnt do well with small children. He is
great with other cats but he has tested positive for Feline Leukemia,
so he could only be with other cats that have the same disease or you
could adopt 2 from us! He has a limp on his hind leg from an
injury that healed before it could be set straight, sometimes he favors
it alot but other times you can hardly tell. Columbo,
boy, born approx 2005.EMAIL US or

Sunni
is a gorgeous
Russian Blue........ when he was a tiny baby, he had horrible bloated
stomach problems. It was determined that he had Mega Colon.
After an extensive surgery to fix it, he actually had problems with the
stool leaking. That is much better now but the vet just doesnt
know a long term prognosis on a cat this young with this type of
surgery.....its usually done on older cats. Sunni is AWESOME with
other cats, he shows the newbies around and makes them feel
comfortable. He loves people and affection. We hope he
finds his special family! EMAIL US or

Phoenix
is such a couch potato, so if you are looking for someone to share the
couch and a movie, here's your boy. You cant see in this picture
but he is a classic tabby with swirls and bulleyes in the
pattern. He sure hopes that someone comes soon to give him his
family, he really needs some couch time! Phoenix,
boy, born approx 2004.EMAIL US or

Cotton
is very animated and comical. You cant help but notice him, and
if he thinks that you dont, he will take care of that. He is very
affectionate and playful at the same time. And as you can see,
quite the handsome strapping boy! Cotton's time was up at a
nearby shelter but the ACO had fallen in love with this guy, so she
asked for him to be transferred to us. Luckily, we had the room
at the time. So, now we need to fulfill our promise to him of a
family......is that you? Cotton,
boy, born approx 2004.EMAIL US or

Alamo
is a real
love bug! He is a tad bit battle scarred but not a lot. He
is happy to be inside and warm and snuggly but he is missing one thing,
his person's lap! Please give him the chance at a family that he
deserves, he wont ask for much! Alamo does have FIV but that just
means he needs to be an indoor only cat (and they all should be) and
that he might not fight off a cold as easily as a cat without FIV, but
antibiotics helps! Look at that FACE! How could you resist
such a sweet plea!!?EMAIL US or

Ellis
is a young
Snoeshow boy that has a gentle spirit. He honestly lives to be
loved. He loves to get as CLOSE as possible to his person.
That includes your face, so if you like a kitty that you can REALLY
snuggle with, Ellis is a good choice. When he knows I am about to
sit down, we have a race to the chair because he just cant wait to get
on a lap. He has been through tough times, we know this because
of the condition he was rescued in. He has deep blue eyes that he
holds looking down. Ellis does have FIV but thats not a death
sentence for an indoor kitty. They can live just as long as those
that dont have it. He just needs a chance, can you give him one? EMAIL US or

When I was rescued, I had hurt my tail. The vet said he was unable to save it and it had to be amputated. Then I had a little bobtail that everyone said was so cute. I used to wag it up and down. But because I have FIV, it never healed and was always sore and hurting me. The vet finally had to remove my tail completely, so now I look like that Manx cat that lives here, only he is my foster mom’s real cat, not just a foster cat like me. I wish I were someone’s real cat. There were complications from having so much surgery and it affected my vision. It is hard for me to judge distance and depth. My foster mom had to elevate my water bowl, otherwise I dig the water out onto the floor because I can’t tell where the level is. The elevated bowl helps me with that problem. I share a room with other FIV cats in my foster home. I am a very good boy and I never jump up on the counter. I am the first one to greet my foster mom when she comes in to visit and take care of us. The other cats sometimes pick on me, so I would really like to have a home all to myself. My name is Gus and I am about four years old. EMAIL US or

Newman
is a doll! He will roll around and talk away to get everyone's
attention. He immediately gives up his belly for a
good ole rub! Newman was abandoned by his family to fend for
himself and he ended up in a feral colony where they were given
food/water on a daily basis. Newman is very talkative and would
love someone to mull over their day with.....course this would mean
that you would have to appreciate feedback, because he gives it whether
you want it or not! Newman,
