| Desc | The Merrimack River Feline Rescue Society's Adoption Program finds loving homes for both kittens and adult cats. Since inception in 1992, we have placed over 22,830 cats in homes. We are a "no kill" shelter and do not euthanize unless a cat is suffering and not treatable. Most cats are kept in a cage-free environment. Cats are accepted from surrounding towns without regard for age or health. We also accept any cat that we previously adopted out that are returned to us, regardless of health or age. Grants and donations cover the cost of veterinary care, vaccinations, neutering, food and shelter. We offer education for the public on the benefits of neutering, as well as on cat behavioral issues. | Desc |
