Volunteers Have Cats Available For Adoption

JACKSON – Calling All Cats is a cat rescue group made up of volunteers, some of whom work at a spay and neuter clinic. People would drop off unwanted cats. As a group, they save the babies that are left alone, the countless mothers that have had numerous litters and those that are losing or have lost their home.

Introducing PJ! He came into the rescue with his siblings Mellow, Gidget and Oliver. He’s seriously so cute and friendly. He is very playful and his whole soft fuzzy body vibrates when he purrs! He loves playing with toys and running around with his siblings. He is up to date on age appropriate

To help humanely lower the feline population, they spay and neuter feral cats and then find homes for the friendly adults and the offspring that have been born. The rescue works extremely hard to find the best homes for cats of all shapes, sizes, colors and ages. While these cats wait, they are cared for in safe, loving, and nurturing foster homes
