Overview

Mission

We rescue stray and unwanted cats and kittens and offer them for adoption. We operate a building to safely care for and socialize cats until they're adopted. We provide monetary assistance for people desiring to spay or neuter their pets, and trap, neuter, release services for feral cat colonies. We hold weekly free pet food pantries for pet owners facing financial difficulties. We help people with financial assistance for veterinary services.

What it reported doing in 2024

Our rescue/adoption center continues to house approximately 111 cats while awaiting their permanent homes, while providing for another 12 in foster homes. Our weekly adoption events saw 164 cats find homes.we continued our partnership with local community cats' caretakers in their mission to trap, alter and vaccinate both feral and stray cats before returning them to their familiar colonies.we were able to maintain our pet food bank, with the continuing generosity of the local walmart distribution center, helping an increased number of caretakers of cat colonies, and individuals in need, feed the cats and dogs in their care. A similar relationship continues with amazon, which donates cat and dog food, small animal supplies, cleaning supplies, and paper products. We received a $15,000.00 donation for spaying and neutering from the john c williams charitable trust. A total of 118 animals were spayed or neutered in less than four months. In addition to the animals spayed and neutered through the grants, the hchf also paid for the spaying and neutering of many more animals.we paid for emergency veterinary care for an increased number of sick or injured animals, eliminating animals' suffering and enabling their recovery. Many of these were pets whose owners had no money for veterinary care, while some were strays. We received a $1,000 donation from the parkersburg area community foundation's ruth hornbrook memorial fund for the purchase of a refrigerator/freezer.we received a $2,000 grant from the pugliese chariable foundation and $1,000 from hancock co. Savings bank for the purchase of insulation.
