Interview! Susana Della Maddalena, CEO and President, Central OK Humane (Oklahoma)
August 2, 2016Interview! Alice Burton, Program Manager, Animal Control and Shelter Liaison
August 4, 2016“Relationships and people make all of the work we do in animal welfare possible.”
CAT is the largest feline-only shelter in the Pacific Northwest, and Karen outlines their focus on taking in cats from other shelters and rescue groups for necessary medical care and rehoming. One secret to their success is that they are committed to “give each cat the housing and support and care they need to be successful in the shelter and then successful in their adoptive homes.” The Portland area is a pretty great place to be a community cat, she observes, given shelters like CAT as well as the local Feral Cat Coalition, which has provided 80,000 (!) free and low cost surgeries for cats.
