Meet Caroline!
Hello,
my name is Caroline and even though I've gone to the Rainbow
Bridge, my spirit lives on in Caroline's Kids Pet Rescue.
Caroline's Kids helps, old and sick cats, like myself, to live out
their lives with care and compassion. Caroline's Kids Pet Rescue
has a no-kill philosophy that allows these furkids, who have nowhere
else to go, to live with dignity. Thanks to generous donors, Caroline's
Kids is making a difference in the lives of cats. The kitties of
Caroline's Kids send purrs of thanks.
Purring too,
Caroline
Currently we are not accepting any cats. We are a limited admission
facility on an available space basis.
Our surrender fee is $70.00 for strays. This is necessary as we are a charity working on donations and this helps us to provide the initial needed vet check and care for the new arrival. It by no means pays for the entire cost, but certainly helps toward it. This is why a surrender fee is required.
Our adoption fee is $75.00. Every cat has been spayed or neutered and is up to date on vaccines along with having been tested for FIV and feline leukemia.
Visitors to the sanctuary are most welcome, the cats love company.
The sanctuary is open for tours Tuesday thru Friday 12pm-2pm or by appointment any other time at 7394 Morley Road in Concord Township, Ohio.
If you unable to have a kitty in your home, you can help our kitties in their home by being a sponsor of one of our furkids for $20.00 per month. Email Us or call for details.

The kitties at Caroline's Kids Pet Rescue and we, Tom and Judie
Brown, and the staff and volunteers at our no-kill cat sanctuary,
Julius' House, in Concord Township, Ohio, need your help to provide for the
cats in our care.
We want to provide
an alternative to euthanasia for cats that are not suffering, but
yet have been abandoned or surrendered by their owners.
Caroline's Kids is a sanctuary for life for old and special needs felines. Although we do adoptions on an appointment basis based on our availability, we remain a sanctuary with the needs of the resident cats coming first.
Our free roam facility provides a last chance for the "furkids"
whose lives would otherwise come to a premature end. Our inspiration,
Caroline, was one such creature who found sanctuary with compassion.

With the deepest gratitude to Tom and Gerri Slavkovsky of Willoughby, Ohio who are the winners of the $1500.00 raffle and generously donated the entire amount back to Caroline's Kids cats.

Thank you Tom and Gerri for the difference you have made for the care of our sanctuary cats.

[News Herald article written by Jenny May on 9/26/08]
To the more than 200 rescued felines housed at Caroline's
Kids Pet Rescue in Concord Township, founder Judie Brown
is viewed as nothing short of a hero.
With a little help from the community, Brown, who operates
the sanctuary for abandoned, sick and abused cats, could
receive that recognition nationally. Brown has been selected
as one of 10 finalists in the Animal Planet "Cat Hero
"contest. [read more...]

We are asking all IDA supporters to help educate others by adding the following text to your emails and web pages:
I no longer use language that accepts the current concept of animals as property, commodities and/or things. Rather than referring to myself or others as "owners" of animals we share our lives with, I now refer to myself and others as "guardians" of our animal friends and to animals as "he" or "she" rather than "it." Guardians do not buy or sell animals; instead they rescue and adopt. I urge you to do the same.

1 House 280 Thanksgiving Guests
By WEWS Channel 5's Ted Kortan Newscast broadcasted 11/25/2010.
CONCORD TOWNSHIP, Ohio - Turkey for 280. That was the task at Caroline's
Kids Pet Rescue in Concord Township.
Fortunately, the cats who reside in the sanctuary are well fed
-- so three 20-pound turkeys were plenty as a holiday treat.
Still, distributing the food to the six rooms filled with furry
felines was something of an adventure. Volunteers quickly divided
the shredded meat onto individual serving dishes and made sure each
cat had one.
A NewChannel5 camera captured the special moment and meal.
Caroline's is a former single-family residence which is now home
to the mainly senior and special needs cats. Founder and Director
Judie Brown said the facility is legally located in an agriculturally
zoned area of Lake County.
The sanctuary has been at its current location for about seven
years. This is the third year for the Thanksgiving cat treat.
Brown told NewsChannel5 it costs between $15,000 and $17,000 per
month to operate the facility.
Brown said monetary donations and volunteers are always needed.
