Support our Claws
Crash’s Landing is Grand Rapids’ largest no-kill shelter for at-risk and stray cats, devoted to taking those without a home and putting them in a loving and caring environment. We are a big family, and many of our kids have had a rough life so far. Many have been abused, abandoned or neglected, so we do our best to make sure their home has everything they need. Keeping everyone happy, healthy, and safe is no small task. With over 80 of our guys to take care of, our monthly budget is over $14,000. Medical supplies, food, rent, utilities…and that’s just scratching the surface! We rely exclusively on donations and volunteers, and that is why it means so much to us that we have friends to help take care of us.
Because our focus is on helping at-risk cats, their medical needs can be quite extensive when they first arrive at our doorstep. Many have severe injuries or illnesses that need serious care. It is not uncommon for one of our new fuzzbutts to need an operation or two to get back on all fours.

Meet Nefurtiti
Our Featured Feline
Nefurtiti ~ she’s such a sweetheart! She has her moments when she could be getting along better with the other cats, but with enough space and places to claim as her own she could learn to live harmoniously with another one. She’s super playful and LOVES her food. She came to us looking so defeated, but her coat is now so soft and shiny, and she’s getting a little belly. She would make such a great companion for a family with kids – she requires a LOT of play time. When she’s not playing, she’s curled up in the window looking at the birds and the leaves falling and swirling everywhere. She appears to be very curious at what is going on outside, but I think she’s pretty pleased to be inside now.
