Our Story
Founded in 1972 by Hettie L. Perry, Room 8 Memorial Cat Foundation began as a sanctuary for homeless cats in Riverside, California. Named after a beloved school mascot, the foundation has grown into a dedicated no-kill shelter, ensuring that every cat receives the love and care they deserve. After Hettie's passing in 1996, her legacy continues through a committed Board of Directors, ensuring a safe haven for these animals.
