At Recreations Outlet, we believe in the power of play—not just for fun, but for giving back to our community. That’s why we’re proud to dedicate all Charitable Play proceeds in April to Cozy Cat Cottage, a no-kill shelter committed to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming abandoned and stray cats.
Cozy Cat Cottage provides a safe, loving environment for felines in need, offering medical care, socialization, and adoption services. They work tirelessly to ensure that every cat finds a forever home while also promoting responsible pet ownership within the community. By joining us for Charitable Play Hours this month, you’re helping provide food, shelter, and medical care for these deserving animals.
Bring your little ones to play with purpose this April—because every bounce, swing, and climb helps give these cats a second chance at life. Together, we can make a difference—one play session at a time!
It all began with a cat named Gretchen
Cozy Cat Cottage Adoption Center opened its doors in October of 1998 in Powell, Ohio. Founder Cindi Clum and her husband Casey used a portion of their retirement savings to start the feline rescue. Cindi and Casey were volunteers at another area shelter when they saw animal welfare become less of a priority.
The couple had planned to start their own shelter in a few years, but a special needs cat (they later named Gretchen) who was lacking in the care she needed, caused them to expedite their plans. Cindi and Casey took Gretchen and a few other cats and started Cozy Cat Cottage Adoption Center. Through love, attention, and the medication she needed, Gretchen recovered and found her forever home.

Cozy Cat Cottage Adoption Center is a non-profit, 501(c)(3), no-kill organization that provides refuge, aid and care for abandoned, injured and/or abused felines. Committed to providing shelter and care for these felines while attempting to find permanent, responsible, loving homes.
