Mission

Due to high overpopulation and the surrendered cat rate locally, Ella's exists first and foremost to serve the Napa community. Our mission is to provide a safe sanctuary for unwanted healthy cats in a cage-free environment and to find happy, loving forever homes for adoptable cats. Ella’s Cathouse & Adoption Center also serves as an educational center for responsible pet guardianship and to extend the Jameson Humane mission to prevent overpopulation through support for spay and neuter.

 


Interested in Volunteering?

Ella’s Cathouse & Adoption Center is always on the lookout for great volunteers, so if you or anyone you know might be interested, we could use your help.

Please contact jennifer@jamesonhumane.org for more details.

"I am so touched and honored to have Ella’s Cathouse & Adoption Center named after my sweet little friend. She was a rescue herself—a feral kitten born on the neighbor’s porch—but she rescued everyone she met. She had an instinct for knowing when I was under the weather or having a hard time, and she would stay by my side. She was truly beautiful, inside and out, and she would have been so proud that Jameson Humane chose her as the face of this adoption center for other kitties like her!"
