Retention

We strive to maintain a compassionate community for not only cats, but their owners in the Shenandoah Valley. If you — or someone you know face any issues that affect your ability to own a pet, feel free to reach out to Cat’s Cradle. We can offer:

Counseling: We have staff trained to provide owners with strategies to keep their pets at home. We also offer behavioral counseling for those struggling with their cat’s behavior. If your cat struggles with aggression, using their litter box, or any other behavioral issue, consult with Cat’s Cradle for guidance.

Short-term pet food and boarding assistance: We understand that anyone can face financial hardships while caring for a cat. We offer short-term pet food assistance to those struggling to feed their furry friends.

Cat allergy advice: If you are allergic to your cat, try to follow an anti-allergy trial. For six weeks, make bedrooms a cat-free zone, wipe your cat down once a week with Simple Solution Allergy Relief (available at PetSmart), and wash your cat's bedding with hot water and bleach.

Our overall goal is to keep cats in loving homes and outside of shelters. If you are facing circumstances that may effect your pet ownership, feel free to contact Cat's Cradle.
