Domino's Cat Rescue League, Inc.

You can make a difference by helping to save Domino's Cat Rescue.

A no-cage, no-kill 501(c)(3) shelter founded by Rita Maris Sine more than 20 years ago, Domino's has been a premier no-kill feline rescue adoption center and facilitator of spay/neutering in the local area in order to reduce feline overpopulation and homelessness.

Domino's mission always remained the same: to compassionately shelter, spay/neuter, and offer for adoption all cats and kittens rescued by or surrendered to us, and to provide a safe no-cage, no-kill haven for those difficult to adopt out due to medical issues, age, etc.

That mission is now in peril.

Over the past 3 years, Maris has known her share of heartbreak and struggles. She lost the love of her life, her husband of over 60 years and co-founder of Domino's. She has battled cancer and is in remission but still in treatment. She has broken her hip, fractured her spine, and suffered 2 strokes. But she has never quit, never given up. With her family at her side willing to work towards a future for Domino's, her priority still remains the same:

The cats come first!

Due to the financial climate and departure of sponsors, Domino's is facing closure.

Our 62 cats are facing homelessness.

The colony we care for is facing starvation.

Our small staff of 5 is facing unemployment.

We have food to last us for another month.

We have litter to last us for the same.

But the money will have run out by mid-January.

We will face the heartbreak that closure will bring. The heartbreak of our 62 cats who will face an uncertain future. Of our small but dedicated staff of 5 who will lose their jobs. Of our founder, Rita Maris Sine, who has dedicated more than 20 years to Domino's. Of all in the local community who look to Domino's for help and those who come to volunteer a few hours to visit with the cats.

Domino's Cat Rescue needs your help and we need it now.

Donations of food and litter are always welcome, but we need the funds to literally keep the lights on, pay the power bill, pay the medical bills, the taxes, the waste collection, pest control, and last but absolutely not least, to pay the wages of our people.

We know that times are hard for everyone, especially now during the holiday period... But please... Please help us save Domino's and allow us to continue to provide for our cats.

Dear friends and supporters,

At Domino's Cat Rescue League, we've dedicated ourselves to providing a safe haven for homeless and abandoned cats in our community for over two decades. Currently, our shelter is home to 90 cats, each with a unique tale of resilience and survival. Through our dedication, we've saved countless lives, providing nourishment, medical attention, and love to cats who otherwise would not have stood a chance. From bottle-feeding orphaned kittens to nursing sick and injured cats back to health, our mission is to give every cat the chance at a happy and healthy life.

However, we face a pressing challenge, with over half of our cats being 8 years or older, it's crucial that we provide them with comprehensive veterinary care to maintain the health of each cat as they age. Regrettably, due to financial constraints, we've been unable to schedule routine check-ups for our beloved feline residents. Given all of this, we refuse to let financial struggles stand in the way of our mission.

That's why we're reaching out to you, our compassionate community, for support. Our goal is to raise $20,000 by the end of April to cover the cost of vet visits for all 90 cats in our care. With your generosity, we can ensure that each cat receives the necessary medical attention to live a long and healthy life.

Your donations will directly contribute to:

1. Veterinary Care: Covering medical expenses such as vaccinations, spaying/neutering, medications, and emergency treatments to keep our cats healthy and thriving.

2. Specialized Care for Sick or Injured Cats: Providing specialized care and treatments for cats with medical needs, including surgeries and vital medications.

3. Continued Care/Health maintenance: Supporting ongoing medical needs and providing specific care to our senior cat population to thrive in their golden years.

Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a significant difference in the lives of our cats. Together, we can ensure that Domino's Cat Rescue League remains a beacon of hope for cats in need, not just for today, but for many years to come.

Thank you for opening your hearts to our cause and for being a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves. We could not do any of this without your kindness, generosity, and unwavering support.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Dominos cat Rescue league.

Please share our campaign with your friends, family, and social networks to help us reach our goal and continue our life-saving work. Thank you for your kindness and support.
