Join us for our Senior Prom

Our Senior Prom is back and will be held this Saturday, June 11 from 12-5 at 34 Hamilton Avenue, Oyster Bay.

This adoption event with a prom-like atmosphere not only highlights our Seniors for Seniors Program, but features cats of all ages that are available for adoption.  Senior citizens who adopt senior cats will receive a gift basket chock full of goodies (while supplies last) for their new companion and adopters of cats of all ages will receive a gift bag of new toys (thanks to KitNipBox) for their furry bundle of love. 

Not looking to adopt?  Join us under the tent for refreshments and/or take a tours of our newly renovated sanctuary.  For the safety of everyone, we request that masks be worn while inside.

In addition to tours, visitors may wish to sponsor a cat to help us continue to provide housing and medical care for cats in our care.  Sponsors will receive a hand-painted ornament (pictured) with your sponsee's name (or your own cat's name you like).

Potential adopters and visitors alike are welcome to stop by to visit our staff, volunteers and kitties and have some popcorn, cotton candy and water.

The votes are in -- meet the King and Queen of the Ladew 2022 Senior Prom

Our King, Shiloh, was a recent transfer from Animal Care and Control in Brooklyn.  His owners moved and could not take this incredibly sweet boy with them.  A favorite of staff and social media, Shiloh was very humble when receiving his crown.  When asked how it felt to be named King, he simply meowed "it's an honor."  

Our sweet Queen, Soca, lost her home due to allergies and was also at ACC.  Fun fact -- Soca was named best air biscuits in high school.  When interviewed about her win, she just glowed and said "I always knew I was royalty, I was just waiting for the world to catch up."

Meet the King and Queen (and runners up) at the Prom (unless they get adopted)!

The science is in - cats are good for our health.

Enjoy this clever video by our friends at The Paw Project with it's wonderful message:  Adopt a cat -- the life you save may just be your own.

Hope to see you at our Senior Prom on Saturday, June 11th from 12-5 at 34 Hamilton Avenue, Oyster Bay.
