Marie Valentino, a retired school teacher, founded Feline/Canine Friends, Inc. in 1989, as a shelter primarily for unwanted pets with an emphasis on special-needs animals. The shelter originally was located in Grand Marsh, WI, and is now our sanctuary, which houses our non-adoptable & special-needs cats. In 2014 we built a large facility in Westfield, WI to expand our organization. In 2011 Feline/Canine Friends became an Adoption Partner with Petco in Plover, WI. This partnership has been instrumental in finding adoptive, loving homes for over 200 cats per year! All of our animals at the shelter receive medical care from board certified veterinarians which also includes spay/neuter, vaccinations, and parisite control.
If you are interested in adopting one of our cats, please e-mail us at felinecaninefriends80@gmail.com. After you contact us, we will ask you to fill out an application. Please allow 2-3 days for us to process your application. Once the application has been processed, a volunteer will contact you and arrange a time for you to meet the pet to ensure that it will be a good match. Next, you will sign an adoption contract and pay an adoption fee. After this is complete, you can take home the newest member of your family. All adoptions include: spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccines, deworming and an application of flea prevention. FIV/Feline Leukemia testing is available for a fee of $15.
