What We Do
Look What the Cat Brought In exists to care for cats that require longer shelter stays than a traditional shelter can provide, securing adoption when each cat is healthy and emotionally ready. We were founded in 2008 as the first shelter in Colorado Springs serving cats exclusively. We are proud to be a limited admission, adoption guaranteed shelter.
Mission Statement
To help cats, particularly those with special needs, find and stay in loving homes, and have life-long well being by empowering cats as well as their communities.
Check Out Our New Book!
In a small-town welding shop where sparks fly and laughter rings, life changes forever when Gracie the shop cat welcomes four curious kittens into the world. Meet brave Wingman, playful Susie Q, mischievous Leslie, and tiny Peg as they turn the workshop into their playground. From muddy pawprints and yarn tangles to hide-and-seek among old cars, every day is an adventure filled with giggles, surprises, and heart.
But when Wingman’s curiosity leads him on a journey far from home, the whole town holds its breath—will he find his way back to Mama Gracie and his sisters? Brimming with warmth, humor, and tender moments, Wingman’s Great Adventure is a delightful tale of family, courage, and the joy of finding forever homes.

We adopt hundreds of cats annually, both from our shelter and through three local pet stores. Our alumni have gone to homes as far away as China and South America.
Our Cat Quarters
