The Ten Lives Club
Our Mission
Ten Lives Club is dedicated to promoting, furthering, and enhancing all cat life. We are committed to bringing healthy cats into happy, forever homes through a compassionate, community-focused approach.
Why We Do It
Since our founding in 2001, we have saved or assisted over 40,000 cats. As a registered 501(c)3 non-profit, our work is driven by the goal of reducing the number of cats in need due to overpopulation and limited shelter space.
How We Operate
We function as a non-kill, non-profit organization sustained entirely by the generosity of our supporters and a dedicated network of over 300 volunteers. Our care model combines our main shelter in Blasdell, NY, with a vital foster network and over 18 satellite adoption locations, ensuring our cats receive professional care, including on-site veterinary support.
The Adopter Connection
We believe that every adoption is the beginning of a beautiful partnership, and we prioritize finding the right match for both the cat and the guardian. Because we understand that choosing a companion is a matter of the heart, we guide you through a thoughtful process to ensure each cat's personality and temperament perfectly fit your unique lifestyle.
Get Involved
Ready to find your new feline family member? We invite you to browse our current list of adoptable cats online or visit one of our many adoption locations throughout Western New York to meet your perfect match. If you have any questions, please reach out to our team at (716) 646-5577—we would love to help you start your journey with a new, loving companion.
