In Need

For the past three Saturdays at Petco, we have had zero adoptions. We are extremely overrun with cats and literally have no room left within the organization. On top of low adoption numbers, we struggle with rising food, supplies, and vet costs. Plus we have very low volunteer rates as our need for help increases. If you are interested in adopting a cat, donating, or volunteering, I urge you to step forward. We need help to keep this wonderful organization going, so we can continue to help the needy cats of Bakersfield. As a frequent volunteer myself, I can say that my experiences with The Cat People have been nothing but rewarding. 

I would like to thank everyone who participated in the Panda Express event and express how thankful we are for your support. 

Thanks,
