While they’re still winding down adoptions, Maine Coon Adoptions has already made sure that their remaining cats land safely on their feet by collaborating with the Oakland-based rescue, Cat Town. Says founder and Director Elaine Lyford-Nojima, “We’ve committed to care for these cats for their entire lifetimes. I’m thrilled that Cat Town will be keeping that promise for us.” Maine Coon Adoptions is making a significant grant to Cat Town to create a new, dedicated fund that will completely cover the expenses of this commitment.
Our focus is to find great homes for cats who are considered unadoptable in the traditional rescue model. Cat Town focuses on the elderly, frightened, stressed, and sick or injured cats who would otherwise be killed. Cat Town’s approach proves these cats are highly adoptable, and since 2011, has helped reduce the euthanasia rate for cats at Oakland Animal Services, Oakland’s municipal shelter, by more than 70%. The entirely volunteer-based organization has helped more than 3,400 cats find homes. Maine Coon Adoptions was selected by Independent Charities of America as one of the best charities in America.
