For years, this group of cats was living outside at an armament proving grounds.
A caring employee contacted Feline Rescue last fall for help getting the cats spayed and neutered to break the cycle of homeless cats on the property.
Remarkably, the cats were all friendly.
So volunteers were able to help not only get them all spayed and neutered but also to get them all out of harm’s way and into loving homes.
The very sociable patriarch of the family,
Moose, who was missing most of his ears but more than made up for that with his enormous feet and extra toes, went to the
Feline Rescue adoption center and was adopted right away.
And sweet
Cally, who had lost her tail out there, found her forever home not long afterwards, also at the adoption center.
Two of the cats were taken in by company employees.

Three moms with young kittens were cared for by Feline Rescue volunteers. Three-legged and blind, Athena somehow survived many years outside and is now at home with volunteer Mary, who also adopted Athena’s kitten LouLou. Ginger and her son Mitts have made themselves at home with volunteers Mike and Susan.

Princess Leah and
Concho were the very last cats to be brought in from the cold.
Before coming to the adoption center, they got to spend some time living in a house.
They liked it and are hoping to be back in a home again soon!
Princess Leah and Concho have always stuck together.
They are both a little shy, but they’re sweet and will do well in a new home if they stay together.
They love to play and cuddle. To meet them, stop by the
Feline Adoption Center or call 651-642-5900, ext.3 for more information.
