Meet Helen

This sweet girl is a fan favorite of the sanctuary. Helen was found with her sister Lola under a pile of brush in the woods, thought to be dead. Although Helen was very much alive, vets believe that she has a condition called cerebellar hypoplasia. Because of this, Helen is unable to walk right. But, that doesn’t stop Helen! Helen can still do all the other things normal cats can do, it just takes her a little bit longer.

Meet Leroy Jones

Leroy is one of our first cats to arrive at the sanctuary. LJ is calm, cool, and collected and likes to just mind his business. He can usually be found lounging on the back deck or inside some sort of box to stay out of the heat.

Meet Fiona

Fiona was found abandoned by a dumpster in San Antonio. This sweet girl is one of our only long-haired cats in the sanctuary. Because it’s so hot, she tends to spend her days inside or lounging under a tree. She is very friendly and loves any attention she can get!

Meet Tabitha

Tabitha is a female orange tabby with orange eyes. Even though Tabitha typically only makes an appearance for breakfast and dinner, we still look forward to seeing her every day. She loves to welcome new friends whenever she can find time in her busy schedule.

Meet Sean

Sean was found in an apartment complex in Northern San Antonio and is one of our most recent additions to the sanctuary. Sean is currently getting used to the new environment in one of our welcome kennels, where he will stay for a couple weeks until he is released to roam on the sanctuary. Sean is a bit skittish, but we are hoping with time he will warm up. More updates to come!

Meet Allen

Allen was found in Hondo, Texas with his brother, Hondo. Allen has alopecia that is currently being treated. Despite that, Allen is an incredibly loving cat who loves to play with his brother and all his new friends. He loves to greet guests of the sanctuary and especially loves dogs.

Meet Carol

Carol was found at Home Depot and had clearly been dumped. She is a friendly cat who spends most of her time lounging on the back deck or under a shady tree. Carol enjoys meeting new people and loves to chase bugs.

Meet Lola

Lola and her sister Helen were found under a pile of brush in the woods and were thought to be dead. Luckily, both Helen and Lola were very much alive. After lots of nursing and cuddles, Lola became the sweet, loving kitty that she is today. Lola’s favorite thing to do is sleep right next to your face, purring so loud it’ll keep you up all night!

Meet Hondo

Hondo was found in Hondo, Texas with his brother Allen. His favorite thing to do is play with his brother and all the other kitties. Hondo loves to spend the day outside and loves to meet new people.

Meet Wall-E

This sweet boy was abandoned at a Walmart. When we first got him he was so scared that he scratched up my entire arm. Now that he has adapted to his forever home, he is one of the sweetest, gentlest, kindest cats in the sanctuary. Seeing how far he has come makes us so happy.

Meet Harry

Another one of our ferals. Harry was left at a dumpster behind HEB by his previous owners, and has since been very wary to trust people. That being said, he still likes to watch things from a distance and play with the other cats. Harry has warmed up a bit over time, so we are hopeful that with a lot of love and treats we can earn his trust.

Meet Moose

Moose is one of our feral cats, meaning she is scared of people and only lets sanctuary staff that have been around her for a while get near her. Moose was found at an Academy when she was a kitten and has been with us since.

Meet Henry

The alpha cat of the sanctuary. Weighing in at a whopping 19 pounds, Henry is our largest cat at the moment. Henry is a friendly boy who likes to spend his days lounging in the sun and eating lots of treats. Even though he’s very personable, Henry does not appreciate when other cats get in the way of his food. Henry loves to welcome new guests to the sanctuary and likes to clean new foster kittens himself!

Meet Bobby

Also known as Bobby Bojangles! Bobby was brought to us Christmas morning after being dumped in a parking lot. Bobby loves to play outside and come inside for some cuddles. She is a sweet kitty who gets a long with pretty much everyone.

Meet Lulu

Lulu was found as an abandoned kitten and is one of our few long-haired cats on the property. She spends most of her time climbing trees and chasing bugs, but makes sure to never miss breakfast or dinner. Lulu is very affectionate and has adapted very well to her life on the sanctuary.
