New Albany-Floyd County Animal Shelter on Saturday. The shelter hosted an open house to showcase the new cat room that lets potential adopters meet the cats in an open space.

In a room filled with a maze of ramps, rafters, beds, scratch posts and even a large hammock, adult cats at the New Albany-Floyd County Animal Shelter roamed and frolicked as passers-by took a look in.

The room, dubbed Cat Central Station, was formally unveiled Saturday with a party featuring food, drinks and face painting for anyone wanting to stop by.

Theresa Stilger, animal care coordinator, said that room and changes at the Green Tree Mall location cost $13,000. She said donors were instrumental in getting the project done.

Fearing that the Madison County Humane Society might run out of money soon, adoption coordinator Rhonda Estes is once again planning to lock herself inside the shelter.

Estes took up residence in the no-kill shelter last year in an attempt to raise funds for the organization after it was defrauded of $65,000 by its former treasurer. She managed to raise $23,000 by locking herself in with the homeless cats and dogs for 30 days, but the funds quickly dried up and the shelter is once again on the brink of failure.
