Our founder Jo Knobloch has been a resident of Fort Myers Beach for years. Prior to living the island lifestyle, she was a big-city business executive and business owner. Eight years ago, after selling off her companies for a more relaxed environment, and always an avid animal lover, she offered a hand with Lee County Animal Services’ “Trap, Neuter, Release” program when it first began, to help the stray cat situation along the south end of the island. That volunteering gesture led Joann to, for the most part, end up taking care of the entire stray cat colony/homeless cat complication of the island ever since.
