I can personally vouch for Carmen's C&W sanctuary. She takes VERY GOOD care of her residents. My Milo was treated like a king there. Alice Hanson

Our special needs sanctuary for felines has five very nice buildings and a brand new large sixth building is being completed or will be by March. It will have a clinic room for our med tech and spay/neuter clinics, a storage bay, overnight guest 'apartment' for volunteers who come and help us and room for cats. The PETA report on the S.C. sanctuary is horrific and it also gives the word 'sanctuary' a bad rap. We need more positive stories. Just be sure to visit if you take an animal to any so called 'sanctuary. It is very important. We always tell people to come either first, or take the kitty home with you if we are not the fit for your cat. It is the staff that makes the difference for us, the board and our volunteers as well. We have a couple cats coming from a so-called 'rescue' (gone bad) and the animal welfare groups we are working with are doing what they can for the animals. The cats have been kept i 1.2 x2' cages one since she was 9 weeks old and she is 5 years old now. Needless to say she is kind of 'crazy' and adoption challenged. I have never been to Caboodle Ranch but there have been many problems there. On Facebook you will find a lot of information from Caboodles Angels, all who have taken a cat there and it went missing very quickly..
