For half a decade, Kaleb Lynch has worked fervently to make the Catman2 shelter a place where no cat is forgotten. Lynch was born into an animal rescue family, and has had a lifelong connection to animals, considering them some of his best childhood friends. Started by Dr. Harold Sims in 1996, the Catman2 shelter was created as a no-kill alternative to the crowded animal shelters in the area. Lynch lives on the Catman2 property and is in charge of the care of the nearly 80 cats in the shelter, along with his 10+ animals of his own.
