Featured Cats & Kittens

Venus, Fergus, and Marcus are 4 months old and fixed and vetted. They were born to a shy, stray mama kitty who entered someone's basement via their open doggy door. We were called in and I was able to remove the kittens once they were weaned. Venus, the brown girl tabby, is the most outgoing and adventurous of the trio. Marcus, white/gray tabby is a sweetheart and very calm. Fergus, also a female, is the other white/gray tabby and is quite shy at first but very sweet once she trusts you.

Volunteering & Fostering

The Cat's Cradle relies on volunteers and foster homes to continue to save vulnerable cats and find them forever homes

You love cats & kittens and you want to make a difference.
Please join our team, there are many ways to volunteer.

Foster Homes – All of our cats and kittens are in foster homes. The more foster homes we have the more cats and kittens we can help.
Fundraising – We need ideas and organizers.
Grants – Research and help write grants , sometimes just forms need to be completed, we can teach you.
Adoption Event Assistants – We do adoptions on the weekends at Hickory and Morganton.
Adoption Center Cleaners – Our Petsmart cages need to be cleaned and cats fed daily, a great way to get to know all our kitties.
