Cat Depot claims to be a no kill shelter that rescues and saves lives and provides a safe haven for around 130 cats until they go to a "forever home". They quote experts statistics on required space for a stress free, healthy environment. The truth is, more often than not, they cherry pick kittens and special cats from their waiting list and spit them back out like a transaction at a 7-11. But that's ok. It's all about racking up bragging numbers and now the goal is 1000 cat out the door.
The other goal, per Shelly Thayer, is to purge their building of any cats they consider outdated inventory that take up space they can fill with "rescued" Ragdolls and Persians.This is their dirty little secret!!! They seek out people with rural property who will allow them to unload these undesirables(older, plain, timid cats ).
In their so called "exchange program" these cats are forced into the harsh life of a barn cat,completely alien to what they have known and if they flee in fear and starve to death or become no more than part of the food chain, no safer than a rabbit or a sguirrel- that's ok....who will know! The public will only know from their website and newsletter the "outdoor paradise" built for "Max and Artie."
Don't believe their propaganda!!! These cats that they are quietly moving out there back door will not be placed in bona fide sanctuaries providing protective housing. How can anyone trust and support this "rescue organization". Shelly Thayer must have been booted from Best Friends in Utah. She's turned a once compassionate shelter into what should more accurately be called Cat Dumpot!!!

You are SO right!! Have you seen the latest undercover results about Cat Depot cat dumping email that has gone out? It is all over the place!!
No kill? Not in the Cat Depot building, perhaps. But by leghold traps, raccoons, wild boars, dogs and yahoo hunters...freezing and starving to death. where CAT DEPOT put them!!!
How does Shelly Thayer sleep at night???
