Alex is adorable. Those white markings under his eyes look like tear tracks! I hope he gets adopted quickly. That they all do!

London has such a sweet face. He/She looks a bit older than some of your other cats. I get the feeling that's a cat who has been through a lot.
@GuitaBooks
You're doing a great job. I would love to volunteer at a local shelter (I hope it doesn't affect me because I grew up with a dog and I really adore cats, dogs, horses, donkeys, cows, etc etc etc). Are you required to work a minimum of hours/days per week, or you just go when you can?.

I'm sure ANY shelter would gladly take any help they can get. They have set hours for viewing but most hours are pretty much open. They would fit you in I'd bet! Bless you for volunteering, it's SO rewarding. My trouble is I want to take them all home. If you can't give your time, they are always in need of towels, small bowls, toys, litter, and food.
Thank you. I want to give them time, and hopefully, I'll take one home someday.

She is a little bit more of a shy cat I believe, she took a while to be adopted the first time but was thankfully quick the second time. She's sensitive, but I'm not sure of her age, I think middle-age?
She is a sweetie though. : )
Different shelters have different rules, but like @Di and Bob said they love any help they can get, though generally volunteers have set times to come in, unless you are given special permission to come in during closed hours. It is so rewarding, though some days can be stressful. Seeing them get forever homes is always so worth it. : )
I'm quite sure. I'll look for nearest shelter and will give love to our friends. That's what I would like to do

Alex is in the cat room, chillin' on a tree
Chewy is a shy boy, but is up for adoption at Petsmart
Eartha was returned because she has some cattitude and probably would do best without children because of it. But she still rocks! I'm sure she'll find her family
Grey is also at Petsmart. She is a dilute calico
Hitchcock is still waiting
Here is Maximus before he went to Petsmart
Oliver Twist in a hide, peeking out to say "howdy"
Polly showing off how gorgeous she is
And sleeping in the sink

Wonderful work and beautiful kitties. I'm still amazed at all the names you lot come up with.

Naming the animals can be a lot of fun.
So, for an update on the current cats. Lets see if I can get all the names straight, LOL.
Up for adoption are Alex, Audrey, Precious, DeeDee, Grey, Daphne, Eartha, Hitchcock (has someone interested in him), and Polly.
In foster homes and programs are Lady Gaga, Minion, Peggy, Mr. Cool, Paws, Rags, and Steve.
Waiting to be given the okay to go into foster or to be adopted are 3 new cats (don't know their names yet), Boo, Penelope, Wheat, Yeti and Victoria.
I'm waiting to hear if Maximus and Chewy were adopted, but I do believe they were as they aren't on the PetSmart list anymore (they were some of the cats that went to Petsmart to be adopted, which is why I don't know if they were adopted or not yet).

Aww, Alex! What a sweet face. There is something so endearing about cross-eyed cats.
