Norfolk, VA
Serenity Trail is a no-kill, nonprofit feline sanctuary based in Norfolk, Virginia, dedicated to providing community feral and stray cats with food, shelter, and medical care in a compassionate environment. On average, the sanctuary spends about $500 per cat or kitten on veterinary care alone. Because most of its cats and kittens are rescued and socialized from feral colonies, adopters must agree to keep them as strictly indoor pets, to prevent them from trying to find their way back to their old colony and getting lost or injured. With an approved adoption application and agreement, the tax-deductible adoption donation fee is $175, which covers less than half of the sanctuary's vetting costs and none of its housing, food, or litter expenses. Supporters can also help by registering a Kroger Shopper's Card to Serenity Trail, at no extra cost to themselves.
