San Diego Cats Enjoy Retirement Living in Spring Valley Thanks to a Pet Trust

Recently the San Diego Union reported the story of a cat named Teila living out her days on the grounds of the National Cat Protection Society in Spring Valley. This shelter opened in Spring Valley in 1975 but in 2000 a “retirement center” was built complete with a playroom, bedroom and shaded patio. They expect to continue to expand with places for cats to climb and explore in a tropical island atmosphere. The owner Gerri Calore, reports that one woman came in to view the center as a home for her 8 cats after her death. She is going to set up a pet trust which will include a lifetime care plan at the center. The owner says that the retirement center, while the first of its kind in San Diego, is a growing trend among pet owners.
