ASKING FOR DONATIONS
They’re safe—and thanks to an incredible team effort, their future is already brighter.Yesterday, with the help of the Johnstown Police Department and Johnstown Animal Control, we took in 18 cats and kittens from a cruelty situation in the City of Johnstown. About 15 more cats and kittens were rescued and being helped by another organization- showing what’s possible when we work together. Despite what they’ve been through, many of these cats are already showing how affectionate and resilient they are. They’re now safe, receiving care, and on the path to a better future.

Caring for so many animals at once puts a strain on our resources. As the only brick-and-mortar shelter in our immediate area that cares for cats and kittens, we rely heavily on community support. We are in immediate need of:

  • Non-clumping clay cat litter
  • Pâté-style canned food any brand for adult cats and kittens

Monetary donations are also greatly appreciated and will support veterinary care, spay/neuter surgeries, vaccinations, and testing. Donations can be made via PayPal at jabmhs@yahoo.com, dropped off at the shelter, or mailed to 437 Nine Mile Tree Rd. Gloversville, NY. Your support makes it possible for us to continue helping animals in urgent need, and we are deeply grateful.

A special thank you to Dr. Emily Frollo for beginning the important work of spaying and neutering these cats so they can move forward healthy and ready for homes.

These cats will not be available for adoption until sometime next week, but we currently have many wonderful cats and kittens ready for adoption now if you’re looking to add a new family member.

For now, enjoy these photos. Thanks to your support, their next chapter is filled with hope, love, and second chances.

**WE NEED CAT AND KITTEN ADOPTIONS!**
Right now, we're assisting with a local animal cruelty case in conjunction with the City of Johnstown ACO and Police Department

and we know that more cats and kittens will need a safe place to go.

The reality is that there are very few resources for cats in our area, and we are one of the only shelters in our immediate region that provides

housing and care for them. The only way we can continue saying "yes" to cats in need is by making room through adoptions.

To help us create that much-needed space, adwe are temporarily offering reduce adoption fees on all of our

adoption-ready cats and kittens!

Every cat and kitten available for adoption is:

  • Spayed or neutered
  • Vaccinated
  • FIV/FeLV tested

When you adopt, you're not just giving one cat a forever home—you’re opening a space that could save another life.

Our normal adoption policies and procedures remain in effect, and we are committed to making the best possible matches

for both our animals and their new families.

If you've been thinking about adding a feline friend to your family, there has never been a better time. Please stop by the shelter, meet our

wonderful cats and kittens, and help us make room for those who need us most.

Adopt. Save a life. Make room to save another.

These are just a few of our available cats/kittens below.

ADOPTION FEES FOR ALL CATS

Cats over 6 months of age - $100

KITTEN SEASON IS HERE… and we have kittens!
Our kitten room is full of adorable little personalities just waiting to find families of their own! We currently have boys and girls ranging from approximately 10 weeks to 4 months old, and every one of them is:
  • Spayed or neutered
  • Vaccinated
  • FIV/FeLV tested

While any kitten can make a wonderful addition to a family, we strongly encourage adopting two together whenever possible. Kittens raised with a feline friend are often happier, more confident, and less likely to develop unwanted behaviors. They keep each other entertained, learn appropriate play from one another, and always have a built-in cuddle buddy when you’re away. Two kittens really are better than one!

With so many wonderful kittens available, there’s a perfect match (or two!) waiting for just about everyone.

Please note: We will not be answering questions about specific kittens in the comments on this post. If you’re interested in adopting, we encourage you to stop by the shelter during our regular business hours, fill out an application, and spend some time meeting the kittens in person. Finding the right fit is part of the fun!

Come prepared… because it’s almost impossible to leave with just one!
