Meet LEVI!
A Distinguished Gentleman with a Heart of Gold
Levi is an 8-year-old tuxedo gentleman who has mastered the art of being a loving companion. With his handsome black-and-white coat and sweet personality, this charming fellow is happiest when he's spending quality time with his favorite people.
Levi is a true love bug who enjoys affection, companionship, and the simple comforts of home. Whether he's keeping you company during a quiet evening or stopping by for some pets and attention, he's always ready to remind you just how special the bond between a cat and their person can be.
As Levi has gotten older, he's learned that he prefers a more peaceful lifestyle. He is looking for a quieter home where he can stretch out, relax, and enjoy having a little more space to himself with fewer animal roommates. A calm environment will allow him to settle in and truly thrive.
Levi is also on a prescription urinary diet to help prevent bladder crystals from returning. Staying on his special food is an important part of keeping him healthy, comfortable, and feeling his best.
If you're searching for a loyal companion who is past the kitten chaos and ready to fill your home with love, purrs, and companionship, Levi may be the perfect match. This sweet tuxedo boy is ready to trade shelter life for a cozy spot in your heart-and on your couch

Meet AILEEN!
Aileen is fearful with new people and unfamiliar environments, so she will need a patient adopter with large breed experience who understands that confidence is built slowly, not forced. She is not the kind of dog who will walk into a new place and instantly decide everyone is her bestie. She needs time, consistency, and someone willing to earn her trust at her pace.
With the right person, Aileen has the potential to become an amazing companion. She needs a calm, steady home where she can learn that the world is safe, people can be kind, and she does not have to be brave all at once. Once she feels secure, this sweet girl has every chance to blossom into a loyal, loving best friend.

City Cats seeking Country Life
Got Mice? We can Help!
Our Barn Cat Program is designed
to match highly trained mousers
with welcoming barns, shops, or other
safe environments. Qualifying barn
cats are altered, vaccinated, and micro-
chipped, and they prefer living and
working outdoors to living an
inside life.
Please call 406-758-2412
or email dbrusell@flathead.mt.gov for more information.
Farm Life is the Life for Me!
If you have a barn, stable, warehouse, shop, nursery, etc. then you can help save a cat!
While the majority of cats can easily live as indoor house pets, sometimes we have cats who prefer to live as a working cat. Cats in our Working Cat Program, also known as our Barn Cat Program, fall into one of these categories:
-
Under-socialized cats who prefer the company of other cats/animals over people.
-
Feisty cats who are on a mission to hunt and when kept as indoor cats tend to bite or scratch.
-
Cats whose litter box habits make them unable to live in the house successfully.
-
Cats who were outdoor cats prior to surrender and cannot acclimate to an indoor home.
Please note that we do not adopt indoor house cats who are suitable to being household companions into barns, warehouses, etc.
Adopting a working cat can help you control a rodent population while providing companionship for your barn animals.
What we provide
When you adopt a cat through our Working Cat Program, the cat will be:
-
Spayed or neutered
-
Up-to-date on vaccinations and testing for common feline diseases
-
Micro-chipped (a form of permanent identification)
We will review guidelines to help you acclimate your cat to your environment in a safe manner.
What you provide
-
Shelter in a warehouse, barn, outbuilding, or stable, away from high traffic streets
-
Daily food and water
-
Long-term veterinary care, as needed
-
A secure dedicated space to allow for the cat’s acclimation to its new environment. This can be a tack room or an indoor enclosure that they cannot escape from. In some cases we may be able to lend you a crate or cage for the introductory period.
Things to consider
Adopting a cat through FCAS can help save the life of a cat who may not have other options. However, the care of a working cat is still an important responsibility. You will be assuming care for the cat for its lifetime, which may be as much as 15 or 20 years. In exchange for providing the essentials of food & water, medical care, and shelter, your working cat will earn its keep by helping to control the rodent population in your building.
Please call 406-758-2412 or email dbrusell@flathead.mt.gov for more information.
