our rehoming service
My Grandfather’s Cat provides a free service to help seniors and terminally ill people arrange homes for their pets. Rather than housing animals in a foster system, we arrange for them to move directly from their home into a second forever home.

our pet pantry
My Grandmother’s Pet Pantry provides seniors with free pet food shipped directly to their door. The goal of the program is to help alleviate the rising cost of pet food for seniors, ensuring they are not forced to give up their beloved pets simply because they can’t afford to feed them.

our story
My Grandfather’s Cat was inspired by our founder’s experience adopting her grandfather’s cat, Mackenzie, when he passed away. Knowing the options were either to adopt her or take her to a shelter, she adopted her in December 2019.
After realizing many families go through a similar experience when their loved ones passes away, and many are not able to adopt the animal themselves, she launched My Grandfather’s Cat as a solution to this need on May 18, 2021, her grandfather’s birthday.
