WELCOME TO FAT KITTY CITY

Learn why our organization is different.
Nestled among a twenty acre tree-studded park-like setting outside Sacramento, California, Fat Kitty Sanctuary is a new concept in animal sanctuaries, providing much more than just a “warehouse” for rescued animals crammed into small cubicles in a warehouse building.
​​
Our furry friends receive the proper room to run and play, climb and jump, chase and explore. They roam in a spacious enclosure which allows them to go indoors and outdoors, as they wish, and to be placed in an environment similar to what their new “forever home” will be like, when they are adopted.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where does the Agee Memorial Wildlife Fund and Fat Kitty City get its funding?
Funds are raised through adoption fees, surrender fees, and donations. All labor comes from unpaid volunteers. Fat Kitty City.org does not receive any government funding.
Where do the residents of Fat Kitty City come from?
Many of our residents are abandoned or abused animals that have no other option but to be killed. Fat Kitty City is their last chance. Sadly, the economic downturn has also resulted in a huge increase in people surrendering their pets because they can no longer keep them.
What kinds of donations does your organization need?
The most pressing need is always for cash donations, which help us provide for the resident cats, as well as support our low cost spay and neuter programs. In addition, in-kind donations are helpful.
You can see a current Wish List of items that are in most need. We also ask that you consider a Will or other Bequest though Planned Giving. Always consult legal and financial advisors to assist you in setting up this type of bequest.
Volunteer We also have a number of Easy Ways to Help, with your purchases generating contributions so we may continue our work.
Does the Fat Kitty City accept feral cats?
We presently support a large community of feral cats at Fat Kitty City. Contact us with your specific need and we can try to help. We also help place feral cats.
Do the cats really roam around free at Fat Kitty City?
Most of the residents are free to roam nearly 2 acres of fenced area, with multiple types of shelter available for them to get out of inclement weather–sheds, Igloos, bales of hay, our barn and other out-buildings, as well as individual kitty condos located literally in the trees. We do have some cages that are used for temporary housing as new cats become acclimated to their new environment or require medical treatment.
​What other services does your organization provide?
Fat Kitty City provides low cost spay and neuter services, a Barn Cat program, to place feral cats that are otherwise unsuitable to be adopted, and Kitties for Companionship which places cats in retirement or assisted living homes.
