From the article: Tabby's Place - a Cat Sanctuary
I make no bones about my fondness for Tabby's Place. It is a sanctuary for special needs cats - cats that were literally snatched from death row and brought to a wonderful state-of-the-art shelter for rehabilitation, medical treatment, and loving care by staff members, volunteers, and visitors alike. If not adopted, each of them has a home for life here. If you have a favorite shelter, share your experiences here. Do you volunteer? All the better. Share how it makes you feel.

SPIN..
- While I LOVE the foster agency that rescued my vowels, I have to say I really love SPIN (Stray Pets In Need), in Natick, MA. The shelter is in a local, family-owned pet store. And the thing that makes me love it the most, besides the fact that it is no-kill, and that they have the kitties in a huge cage that spans an aisle, and has lots of cat trees, and there are old cats there too, is that it was started by an Animal Control Officer. She didn't like the alternatives she had, and so she started a no-kill shelter!

Tabbys Place Is Awesome!
- We live in NJ about 30 miles from Tabbys Place. I read about the plans for Tabbys Place in our local newspaper and followed its progress through several years. We were present at the grand opening in October 2003. What a wonderful day that was. We visit often and have sponsored several cats over the years. Our latest is Tashi -a parapelegic kitten. Tabbys Place is fantastic!

Tabby's Place is Awesome!
- I heard about Tabby's Place on the Cats forum, and I have sponsored a number of special needs cats. I am currently sponsoring a feisty geriatric cat named Hillary, who reminds me a lot of my old girl Raleigh. I get progress reports and pictures each month, so I feel like I know her. Every contact I've had with the staff, including Jonathan himself, has been wonderful.
