I love cats. I have 3 indoors only cats, a momma and her 2 babies. Owned 6 over the last 40 years. They are very special and need lots of love and attention. I would like to help because I know it's hard to find anyone willing. Not all cats can be left alone. I promise they will get everything needed.
