If you like to knit, crochet or sew, we need you!
Homeless cats and kittens at Petsmart Adoption Centers need new blankets to stay warm while they wait in cold stainless steel cages to get adopted. Once they do, they need something of their own to start their new lives with their new families.
We're completely out of the blankets that were made for us two years ago by Disney volunteers. This is a great project for groups, family home evenings, and the traditional grandmas out there who love to knit.
Please help today!
Blankets can be dropped off at either Petsmart Adoption Center ... Petsmart on Eastern/Russell by McCarran Airport OR Petsmart on Rainbow/Lake Mead in the Best of the West shopping center. Volunteers only there Saturday-Sunday between 12-5pm. If that time is not convenient please ask for a Petsmart manager to secure the blankets for us until we can pick them up.
Blankets should be between runner size to crib size. Nothing fancy, the best blankets are made of extra fabric remnants, extra yarn, but best of all extra TLC and love to help those whose purr will warm hearts for years to come.
If you have questions, please call Donielle at 702-616-3340.

Mission Statement
Homeward Bound's goal is to offer the Southern Nevada community the option of placing for adoption, domestic cats and kittens who are found as strays, or need to be re-homed, by operating adoption centers that provide the community with a selection of healthy adoptable animals, paying for vetting of our available cats for adoption, educating the community on the responsibility of spaying/neutering pets, establishing a network of reliable and loving foster homes to provide temporary care for cats and kittens awaiting adoption, creating a facility in which we care for relinquished cats while we evaluate their behavior, temperament, health, and any special needs they may have prior to placing them in our adoption centers, and reducing the number of domestic cats who are abandoned, euthanized, or placed in local kill shelters.
Description
Homeward Bound Cat Adoptions is a non-profit charitable corporation that offers our community another resource and option for those wishing to find homes for domestic cats/kittens needing to be re-homed. Homeward Bound envisions a community in which no pet owner is forced to make a choice to abandon an unwanted cat or kitten or relinquish the pet to a kill shelter. We adopt only spayed and neutered cats and kittens, therefore all kittens are held in foster homes until they are approximately 14 weeks old. We raise community awareness by sending out success stories and raise funding through parking lot sales and unique and fun events.
