We're full of cats!

Literally.
We have no more room to take in any cats...

GVAWL has 19 kittens, 6 adults, and 3 senior cats as of Friday 6/12.

Until 6/30...all adult cats will have a reduced adoption fee of $100, or a pair for $150.

Kittens are $150 for one, $200 for two!
5 kittens have been claimed, we are starting to take holds/reservations on the remaining 14 kittens. Photos of all kittens and available status will be posted by the end of the weekend.

**KITTENS CANNOT BE ADOPTED/GO HOME UNTIL THEY WEIGH 2 LBS OR MORE AND ARE SPAYED/NEUTERED. None of our kittens meet these requirements yet. We're getting closer though!**

Senior cats can be adopted for $50.

Please help us navigate catpocalypse by adopting your next best friend...
And don't forget to spay and neuter your cats 🥲

What a cool collaboration!

We were delighted last week to host a tour with Trades Culture. This is a program based out of Gunnison whose mission is to "seek to regenerate community and ecological vitality by cultivating the next generation of builders through hands-on, holistic, and inclusive trades education—rooted in craft, community, and care for the land. We prepare learners for meaningful work, regenerative thinking, and resilient futures in the Gunnison Valley and beyond." Our kind of people!
Many of these students came from New Mexico, and were spending the week in Gunnison, learning various aspects of the trades.
The group asked engaging and thoughtful questions throughout the tour. Giving the students truly expert advice was Chris Klein of Christopher Klein Construction and Tim Williams, a former partner of a large Denver-based commercial construction company.
