East County Magazine profiled Friends of Cats, highlighting the organization's decades of service to homeless cats in San Diego's East County.
The article describes how Friends of Cats houses up to 270 cats at a time -- young, middle-aged and mature -- at their Olde Highway 80 location. As a no-kill shelter, all cats that are adopted have been spayed or neutered and micro-chipped.
The shelter operates a lifetime care program, providing a safe home for cats whose owners have passed away. These cats reside in the shelter's Cozy Cottage.
"There's nothing like a cat," said shelter manager Janet Bianchini. "They're so giving."
