Cat Town
2869 Broadway, Oakland, CA 94612
510-747-9064
Cat Town was founded by Ann Dunn while she was a volunteer at Oakland Animal Services. Ann saw the challenges faced by the severely under resourced shelter to adequately care for the number of animals it receives each year, and the specific difficulties cats face in a shelter environment. In their free-roaming space, guests and cats alike can enjoy a relaxed environment and get to know one another without the stress of the shelter, reducing the barriers to the adoption process. In 2017, they expanded their adoption center and opened The Studios at Cat Town, where Oakland’s most difficult to place shelter cats can get dedicated attention from their staff and volunteers, while being afforded greater opportunities for adoption. Visitors to Cat Town can ask to see the expanded space and visit with approved cats.
