National Geographic Releases Clips From Upcoming Cat House On The Kings Special

Largest Cat Rescue On Earth (Click here if video doesn't load.)

"I'm not crazy. What I do is crazy."

Those are the words of Lynea Lattanzio, founder of California's largest no-cage, no-kill lifetime cat sanctuary and adoption center, The Cat House on the Kings. Lattanzio and her work are profiled in the the upcoming National Geographic special, The Lady With 700 Cats, which offers an insiders look at life on the sanctuary, and the struggles and triumphs she and her staff face caring for over 700 rescued felines on a daily basis.

Fighting The Good Fight (Click here if video doesn't load.) (Warning, part of this clip contains a very, very sad scene involving a sick kitten.)

The Lady With 700 Cats, narrated by Glee's Jane Lynch, is set to premiere on Nat Geo Wild next Saturday, July 30th at 10PM EST.

  3. if everyone who watches the video and admires what Lynea is doing for these kitties would donate even a dollar or two(or whatever they could afford) it would make a world of difference. This wonderful cat sanctuary is 100% dependent upon donations, so please give as generously as you are able!!! Go to the website for Cat House on the Kings for contact info. Thank You :-)

  4. I am so with "That Girl", the woman from "Cat House On The Kings" amazes me. If I ever win the lottery I would love to do something similar. Her dedication is not of this earth, she is an angel.

  5. This is one of my very fave cat sanctuaries, and I wrote about it last year: http://canidaepetfood.blogspot.com/2010/06/cat-house-on-kings-amazing-feline.html

    I saw an article about Lynea in the ny post the other day. I got really peeved at this lady who commented about Lynea being a hoarder & other ridiculous accusations, so I had to "correct" her. I just hate when people spread misinformation about things they know nothing about!!
