The road doesn't seem as long when we're there with you.

WE ARE a sanctuary for people and our sanctuary cats and an old dog named Rowdy who all needed a home. A sanctuary that holds on our grounds what I have believed since, that the animal/human bond is sacred and can heal both if given space and time to do so. 

This sanctuary also serves as an adoption center for the amazing cats who were brought to us needing a second chance. All cats are fixed, vaccinated and vetted as soon as they come into our sanctuary.

And where this spring gardens will grow.
