Sarah Gillis* is a confirmed Cat Lady. It’s one of my favorite things about her. She keeps me stocked in stress-reducing photos of her furry brood, her netsuke cat game collection, and even the sweet new boarders at Worcester Animal Rescue League during kitten season.

As well as working for WARL, Sarah is also a registrar** over at Worcester Art Museum. When you bring her two specialities together, you get somthing really quite exceptional – the Cats in Residence Program.

Cats run the internet, everyone knows that.*** And, as well, until September 4th, they will hold court over at WAM. In the aviary over the Franklin Street entrance,**** you can meet some of the WARL kitties – and, yes, they’re all up for adoption.

ps – WAM is open free to the public for the entire month of August.There’s a really great show up right now, too, Meow, a Cat Inspired Exhibition.
pps – there’s also a cat cam in place that peeks into the aviary, for when you need an off-hours kitty fix!

*Yes that Sarah – our copyright go-to girl and a judge at last year’s Rabbit Heart =)

**Kind of like a librarian for things that aren’t necessarily books. In her case, artwork. A librarian with mad loading skills, if you will.
***Behind every server is a fuzzy, clawful IT guy, keeping that business well-cooled and debugged and running. You know it’s true.
****This is different from the Hermitage cats – these buddies are all in one place and looking for people to take them to their forever homes.
