What it does

To advocate for the welfare of cats by being a model cage-free sanctuary and no-kill shelter.

The overall program of Hermitage is focused on saving cats and finding their forever home. The 2025 year had the following accomplishments: The Hermitage admitted 792 cats and kittens and adopted out 695. As part of the 695, we admitted 35 FeLV+ cats and kittens adopted out of 21. We updated all processes related to fostering, adopting, surrendering, and volunteering. 195 volunteers logged 22,177 hours. Through our Pet Pantry, we distributed food and supplies to 745 people and distributed almost 33,000lbs of food and litter.
