2023 Calendar Photo Contest
June 05, 2020

The third annual CRAN Photo Calendar Contest has started! Will your cat be the 2023 Cover Cat? Enter your cat and get all of your friends and family to vote (It’s just $10 to enter and votes are $1 each). All proceeds from the entries and votes go to help cats and are tax-deductible. Our goal is to make $12,000. It’s been an incredibly busy year and we could sure use those funds to help more cats. This contest is open to all cats everywhere.

Is your cat nervous about competing? That’s OK. You can reserve a day for them in the calendar.

Calendars are also available for purchase and will be mailed to you (no post contest sales this year). Check out the contest:

Kitten Shower – 2021
May 30, 2020

We have kittens and are expecting a lot more. With all of these kittens comes the need for lots of supplies to care for them until they are ready to be adopted. We need food, formula, bottles, litter and many other things to ensure these babies grow up happy and healthy. You are all invited to our second Kitten Shower! It’s really easy to help. Just go to our Kitten Shower Registry and you can purchase items to support the care of all the kittens:
