Happy Endings No Kill Cat Shelter

Happy Endings is a 501(c)3 non-profit, no kill organization that has been in existence since 1994. It is run solely by volunteers. Our mission is to find permanent homes for strays, abused or unwanted animals that are either brought in to us or rescued off the street. Happy Endings provides a safe haven for all cats, including; feral, stray, abused, neglected and or critically injured animals. We nurse those who are sick back to health and provide a home for all animals until they are ready to be adopted. No animal is ever euthanized by Happy Endings for convenience sake, but, only when, in a veterinarian's professional opinion is in a state of terminal suffering.

Meet Lana and Leslie

Lana and Leslie are 8-month-old sisters, born with their brother in someone's backyard.  Because they lived strictly outdoors for the first 3 months of their lives, they were a bit wary of humans so they spent 6 weeks getting socialized in one of our wonderful foster homes before arriving at the shelter.  Their brother was adopted soon after arrival, and Lana and Leslie are bravely getting more accustomed to humans, thanks to the loving volunteers who have been caring for them at the shelter for the past three months. Leslie, the beautiful medium-haired brown tabby, is learning to enjoy some head pets and ear scritches as she starts to come out of her shell at her own pace.  Lana, the sweet short-haired tuxedo, has been following her sister's lead and is starting to let volunteers touch her paws through the cage.  Both girls are very interested in watching the other cats and kittens play with the volunteers, but they have been somewhat reluctant to join in as loud noises and chaos are still a little scary for them. Lana and Leslie would do best getting adopted together, into a quiet home with no young kids and no loud dogs.  Their ideal owner(s) would need to be patient with them and show them that humans are not scary things.  Lana and Leslie are becoming quite food-motivated (they LOVE their wet food), so yummy food and treats will go a long way to bring them out of their shells!  They also love to play with string toys and their circular "ball pyramid", and they really enjoy batting the balls back and forth between each other. We are still learning their personalities as they slowly open up with the chaos of the shelter around them, but we believe they will make great progress once they are in a quieter environment where they feel safe and free to play in their indoor home.  We have no doubt they will turn into loving and affectionate cats once they become more confident and comfortable with lots of patience and love from their humans! If you are interested in meeting them feel free to stop in during our Open House hours:  Thursdays from 6:00-9:00pm and Saturdays from 11:00am-4:00pm.

Adoption Process
All potential adopters must fill out an application and go through an interview. Our adoption facilitators walk them through the shelter and help them find the perfect animal that would best match their homes. After a potential adopter signs up for a specific animal, there is a cool-down period. We do veterinarian reference checks and follow-up telephone calls on Mondays to make sure the potential adopters are still interested. After the telephone interview has taken place, a home visit is set up and the selected animal is delivered to it's new home. Our adoption fees are $85 for one cat or kitten and $130 for two cats or kittens. The adoption fee includes various procedures which have already been performed, such as: Feline Leukemia and Feline Immunodeficiency virus tests Distemper shots Rabies Booster Preventative Dewormer Spay or neuter for all cats at least 8 months of age or older An adoption folder complete with an "Animal Health Log Sheet" containing the cat's health history. Kittens must be adopted in pairs if there are no other CATS in the home. Other animals (dogs, birds etc.), people and/or kids do not count. Under no circumstances do our animals leave the shelter the same day they are signed up for.
