These people were so kind. I went to their cookout today (June 1st, Saturday). I even got a tour of their shelter. Three were so many unique, little kitties. Please please please consider adopting one of their little furballs, I spent only minutes with them and they brought me so much joy. I can almost guarantee if you took one home every day would be filled with smiles and giggles. You wouldn't just be adopting a cat but a best furry friend!

This place is amazing!! Just taking a tour, you can tell they care immensely for these kitties. There’s different rooms to suit all the different personalities instead of one single big room like most other shelters. The cats are happy and not stressed. Ryan is the powerhouse of that place. He is an outstanding human being. Adopt don't shop!

Ryan is absolutely phenomenal and is an encyclopedia of knowledge for every single kitty here. Having gone to numerous shelters, I’ve never encountered so many friendly, sweet cats like the scratching post. So thankful to have found my sweet baby boy Rey here.

My wife and I LOVE this shelter. They are not only NO KILL but take great care of the kitties. I would volunteer there but would end up with 20 kitties in my house. This is a great charity to donate to and we do it as much as we can - please everyone who can donate to this great shelter!! They even have an Amazon wish list to make it simple

I absolutely love this shelter! I adopted my cat here about 7 months ago, and I’m so glad I picked this shelter. Adopting was a great experience, since I got to interact with many of the cats rather than just seeing them through cages. The staff was super helpful and allowed me to spend more time with the cats I was interested in, after they initially showed me all the cats. They even do a final vet check up appointment before you take the cat home, and give you treats and toys. Make sure you give the shy cats a chance- my cat had been there for 9 months and was super shy, but now she’s the quirkiest (see picture 😂) little ball of love! Thank you Scratching Post

This is an amazing shelter. They go above and beyond to do everything and anything humanly possible to save and rescue as many cats and kittens as possible. Everyone that works/volunteers here takes wonderful care of these felines and gives so much love and time to these precious furbabies. Their goal is to save as many cats, kittens and pregnant cats as they can so they can give each kitty an opportunity to find their furrever family. They work tirelessly, to care for every cat they can. The Scratching Post has been around for over 30 year's and they have a great reputation within the Veterinarian community and the public. Anytime they are in dire need of help for food, litter, other supplies or even monetary donations they ask the public for help and people step up and come through. Because of this they are able to keep going and often offer lifesaving care to some of the cats in desperate need. It's a privilege to be able to have such an organization within our city. Because of them thousands of kitties have been rescued and had the opportunity to be given a life and adopted into their furrever family. They are a true blessing to our community and they are definitely Angels to all of the kitties they have rescued and continue to rescue over the years. I pray that God continues to bless everyone that works/volunteers at the Scratching Post. Thank you for caring so much for the cat community.
