Do you know Lil Bub, the internet phenonmenom? If not, google her. She is a darling little kitty with a birth defect that has risen from internet stardom to be an international spokeskitty and fund raiser.
Merlin is our spokeskitty and he needs a platform. Merlin was born with no feet. It doesn't stop him from running and playing with the other kitties, and he wants to let the world know that kitties with special needs can live full and happy lives!
We need a PR person who can give Merlin the exposure needed to reach the masses. We envision this beginning with social media and expanding to other venues - with fund raising opportunities to support special needs adoption and services nationwide.
Are you the one for Merlin? If you have the skills and time, the heart and desire - call me. Let's talk about how to make this happen.
We're looking forward to hearing from you!
LuAnn (and Merlin)

Mission Statement
CCAS offers lifetime care and rehab for cats with special needs considered unadoptable. Outreach services for homeless cats and guardians are also available, including education and training, linkage to resources, TNR and rehoming, when possible.
Description
Lifetime Care for Special Needs Cats: Our primary objective is to care for cats with manageable or treatable conditions that are considered unadoptable. In some cases, these cats need time to rehab before moving to an adoptive home. Most will live at the sanctuary as long as their quality of life is good. Over 85% of our cats are under 5 years old, so it is a long-term commitment as they are expected to live a normal lifespan.
Spay and Neuter Program for Rescued Cats: As an agency and animal advocates, reducing pet overpopulation is an area we are greatly concerned about. Part of our outreach program in Bailey and the surrounding area includes assisting people who rescue homeless pets in obtaining neuter and spay services. CCAS is partnering with Crow Hill Pet Hospital in Bailey to offer this program as funds permit.
Rehoming and Adoption Services: Another resource CCAS provides is adoption assistance to facilitate rehoming pets that need to be moved due to unforeseen circumstances, with priority given to special needs pets and pet guardians. These services are offered on a case-by-case basis, with no guarantee of placement.
This is an alternative to relinquishing pets to a shelter which can be traumatic for both the pets and families, and places the pet at risk of euthanasia. A donation (adoption fee) is required to cover any costs incurred and adoption services. In emergency cases, temporary foster care may be provided, when available.
