Catman2 is a dedicated cat sanctuary in Cullowhee, North Carolina, committed to protecting vulnerable felines, supporting responsible pet ownership, and strengthening our community through compassionate rescue and education.
Founded in 1996 by Dr. Harold “Catman” Sims and his wife Kay, our sanctuary grew from a simple vision of a humane home for cats into the safe-for-life facility we operate today. We address a vital need in Western North Carolina by providing a haven for cats who deserve dignity, care, and a second chance at happiness.
We provide a calm, cage-free environment featuring spacious rooms that open onto screened outdoor porches, allowing our residents to play, explore, and relax. Our small, dedicated team and volunteers work tirelessly to ensure every cat receives the socialization and medical care they need while waiting to find their forever homes.
Every adoption changes two lives—yours and theirs. We focus on finding the best match between each cat and their potential family, ensuring that our residents transition into loving environments where they can truly thrive. We believe that adopting a pet is a joyful partnership that enriches the bond between humans and animals.
We invite you to experience the warmth of our sanctuary and meet our residents by scheduling an appointment today.
