Is LocalPetFinder a shelter?

No. LocalPetFinder is a free aggregator. We collect listings from local rescues and shelters into one searchable place. Applications and adoptions are always completed through the rescue that lists the cat.

How often are listings updated?

Listings are refreshed regularly from the rescues we track, so adopted cats drop off and new cats appear without you needing to check each rescue's website individually.
