Sponsor a Long Term Resident

Looking to help but can’t adopt?  Please consider sponsoring a LTR cat!

The kitties listed on this page have not found their forever homes due to being too shy for most adopters to give them a chance or have medical issues beyond what most adopters are prepared to take on. By sponsoring one of our long term resident kitties you are ensuring that Cats R Us can continue to provide food, shelter and medical care for these kitties for their lifetime.  We are asking for a sponsorship of $25 per month to cover food costs for your sponsored kitty. Anything above that amount would be amazing! If you would like to sponsor a long term resident please complete the form below. Thank you for your kindness and thinking of these kitties who through no fault of their own have not been chosen.
