I'm going to say that I'm at the top of
[5]
the list of the eccentric crazy cat
[8]
ladies
[13]
I like cats because they're independent
[17]
they're beautiful they are just graceful
[20]
and I enjoy watching them I have taken
[23]
in and lived with 28,000 cats that's
[27]
probably a record the cat house on the
[32]
Kings is California's largest snow cage
[34]
sanctuary for feral and abandoned cats
[38]
founded by the Nile at Anzio in our home
[41]
the sanctuary currently houses around
[42]
800 adult cats and 300 kittens and the
[46]
sheer numbers have force linea to move
[48]
out of the main house boy there wasn't
[51]
room for me anymore I ended up with 60
[54]
some cat cats in my bedroom with dogs
[57]
and I just said that's it and I moved
[59]
out we had a rental on the property and
[61]
I moved to that rental I went from 42
[64]
hundred square foot five bedroom home
[66]
with a pool and a wet bar and a view of
[69]
the river to 1,600 1,800 square foot
[72]
mobile home with a view of a rusty metal
[74]
shed I've come up in the world this is
[77]
my cat free zone haha in 1992 linnaeus
[84]
father had asked her to help him find
[86]
some new cats she went to an animal
[88]
shelter and brought home 15 kittens by
[91]
the end of the year she rescued and
[92]
rehomed 96 cats it was then that she
[95]
realized she found her calling
[99]
when I first started this endeavor I was
[105]
out of my own pocket for seven years I
[107]
spent my retirement I sold my car I saw
[111]
my wedding ring he is so fat in 1993 she
[119]
became a veterinary technician to help
[121]
keep the animals medical costs down and
[123]
the number of cats continue to grow the
[125]
sanctuary is now so big that Linnea has
[128]
staff and a team of volunteers to help
[130]
run it currently for food litter
[134]
maintenance a staffing vet medical we're
[141]
at 1.6 million US dollars a year we come
[147]
in about four o'clock in the morning and
[151]
you know we start by feeding it usually
[153]
takes us like maybe like 30 30 minutes
[155]
to an hour to feed everyone I first
[158]
started here I wasn't really a cat
[160]
person but after that you know work with
[162]
them five days a week and get attached
[164]
to him everybody has different
[166]
characteristics and you get to know them
[168]
and they get to know you kind of wait
[170]
for you while you're watching the game
[171]
pretty cool this is our ICU we have a
[174]
hospital an ICU
[176]
a kitten quarantine a senior quarantine
[179]
but that is where our critically ill
[181]
cats stay we have a vet that comes once
[185]
a week to check our animals we take
[188]
animals in to him every day for a check
[190]
and we have seven vet techs on staff
[196]
when a generous donor left Linnea her
[199]
estate in 2004 the profits from the sale
[202]
allowed her to buy the neighboring land
[203]
and expand the grounds to 12 acres an
[206]
install cat-proof fencing around the
[208]
perimeter meaning all the cats could
[210]
roam freely see under the trees are
[214]
those cats over there there's one on the
[217]
straw there's that's their feeding
[220]
station and their bedding in their
[221]
heater back there but see there's a cat
[224]
over there as much as Lanaya loves the
[226]
cats her aim is to find them new homes
[228]
not to keep them for herself if you are
[232]
interested in adopting you would go to
[234]
our website and fill out the adoption
[236]
form there's 500 up for adoption that
[239]
are friendly and ready to go I must be
[248]
allergic to cats
[250]
