Get to know Lynea Lattanzio, a remarkable woman who gave up her 4200 square foot house so she could take care of her rescued kitties. At the age of 68, Lynea shares her home with more than a thousand cats.
Throughout her life, she has cared for more than 28,000 animals.
Lynea Lattanzio is now living on a 6 acre property called Cat House on the Kings in California. It’s the largest free-range, no-cage, no-kill cat sanctuary for feral and abandoned cats in Parlier, California on the Kings River, about an hour south of Fresno.
She started adopting and fostering cats in 1992 after a divorce and acquired 96 by the end of the year. She even became a veterinary technician in order to grow her mission and find the funds to maintain cat’s life.
It helped to keep the animals’ medical costs down as the number of cats she homed began to grow.
Fortunately, Lattanzio enjoys the support of several volunteers, veterinary professionals, and doctors. Over the years, Lattanzio and her staff have saved over 24,000 cats, 7000 dogs, and 40,000 animals by having them spayed or neutered. Currently, they are taking care of 300 kittens and roughly 800 adult cats.
Although they are love cats, their main goal is to find good and forever homes for poor cats. If you would like to adopt adorable cats or learn more about the non-profit organization, The Cat House on the Kings, be sure to visit their website: www.cathouseonthekings.com
