We’ve been celebrating some of our favorite adoptions — stories shaped by collaboration, patience, and the belief that every cat deserves the time they need. In Part 2 of this series, we’re remembering even more cats whose journeys were made possible because so many people showed up for them.

Cat Town’s supporters have deeply changed the course of so many lives — and they’re just a drop in the ocean of what’s come to fruitions. They’ve helped hundreds of cats land on their feet, filled homes with love and comfort, and helped our staff remain connected to reasons why we do this work. 

Each year, Cat Town’s staff members look back on the year’s adoptions, and reflect on the cats who found safety, confidence, and loving homes. From frightened cats curled tight in the back of a shelter cage, or a pair of hissy, unsure kittens trying to make sense of the world, each story begins with the faith that these stories will end with extraordinary transformations. 

In 2016, James won the youth division of Cat Olympics at Cat Town's Meow at the Moon fundraiser — perfectly pantomiming a cat's prowess with speed and style. James has visited our cats for years with his family, and this month, he became a monthly donor to help us secure our $10,000 challenge match.
