Celebrating 5 years!
Since 2009 our rescue has been working tirelessly to end animal suffering. 2014 marks five years of hard work and dedication to saving unwanted, abused,sick, feral, FIV +, blind, one eyed and handicapped cats deemed unadoptable by most shelters standards and providing quality care for these lucky animals.
We also have worked to educate the public in an effort to end the suffering of animals in our county as well as work with the county in disaster animal rescue.
To commemorate this we have put together a beautiful memory book that is available when you support our rescue. Thank you for supporting our continuing efforts to help end the needless suffering of animals in Graham County. Click on the link below!

" The righteous care for the needs of their animals" - Proverbs 12:10 NIV "If only we can overcome cruelty, to human and animal, with love and compassion we shall stand at the threshold of a new era in human moral and spiritual evolution - and realize, at last, our most unique quality: humanity." ~ Jane Goodall |

Please help us get the kitties to the dentist!
Cat Ranch Rescue is in desperate need of your help! We are trying to get several urgent kitties to the dentist. This can be very expensive and runs usually from $400 to $600 depending on what all they have to do. Most of these kitties have never been to the dentist. Some have painful lesions on their teeth and resorptive lesions that need to be extracted .We are raising money for 2 cats at a time so we can get them in faster. If you can help with even just $5 we would be grateful. Please use the youcaring link below to donate and read more. Please check for updates on the youcaring fundraiser. You can also choose to donate directly to the vet at Wayside Animal Hospital (706-692-2210) and put on our account Cat Ranch Rescue! That way there are no paypal fees taken out. It's up to you! Remember, it's caring people like YOU who help give these deserving kitties the best of care. Click on the iGive add below and sign up and earn our rescue some much needed funds!
Please help CRR kitties get a new building!Help us help the kitties
This year we would like to ask everyone to help us give the kitties a much needed new building by donating to our building fund. We need a building with several rooms for older cats, kittens and some that just don't do well in large groups. The grading is getting done now so we need to be ready to start on the building asap. Once we get prices we will post a fundraiser. In the meantime we can always use food/toys/supplies by using our AMAZON WISH LIST. Let your kind donations make a difference in a rescue kitty's life today. Thank you to all those who helped us fulfill our rabies fundraiser. We will be getting those done on June 5th. Also a big thanks for those helping to fill our food fundraiser for 2 pallets of dry food! Without your kind donations these kitties would not have a home. Thank you for helping us continue with our mission of helping unwanted abused cats in Graham County, NC have the life they deserve. The kitties and all of us at Cat Ranch Rescue say THANK YOU! We hope all you dreams come true in 2014!

Featured kitty of the month
Brody
Brody is a very sweet loveable boy. Saved from being eaten by a huge bulldog where he spent 2 days in a tree, Brody now lives in safety in a Puddy Tat's Paradise.
Where did Brody get his name? He was named by Kylie, the CRR's founders granddaughter after watching Jaws! She decided she would name him after Sheriff Brody.
SInce then he has come out of his shell and is very outgoing. He loves to play and will attack your feet. He is very inquisitive and likes to get right where he can watch everything you do. He is good buddies with Doc Watson CRR's blind kitty and they run and play all over the house.
Please help Cat Ranch Rescue continue helping cats in Graham County by becoming a Sponsor Superhero today!

The Cat Ranch Critters need your help!
We work very hard to provide lifetime care to the unwanted, abused, and unadoptable cats we have rescued through the years. We provide food/shelter, medicine and vetting as well as maintain their sanctuary which includes yard maintenance, cleaning the kitty building which includes washing bedding daily and cleaning supplies as well as air conditioning in the FIV+ room and fans in all the other rooms in the summer and heat in the winter which is a mixture of electric and propane in the main building.
This can get very expensive! It costs us over $100 a day to operate and provide care for these deserving kitties. We need your support! We get no government funding and rely solely on your kind donations. How can you help? We are looking for monthly sponsor superheroes! Help us to continue to provide the quality of care these kitties need and deserve. Sponsoring a kitty starts at $20 a month. You will receive a picture and story of the kitty you wish to sponsor via email. Be sure to give us your email address when you sponsor. Won't you consider helping the kitties today? You can also make one time donations. The link below has several options for one time gift donations. Just click on the arrow on the left to see all the options. You can leave us a note in the comments box if you like. Join us today and help us help the kitties! Click on the HELP NOW tab to learn other ways you can help.
