Beading Divas to the Rescue is fundraising with Hermitage No-Kill Cat Shelter and Sanctuary during March and April. For over 50 years, the Hermitage has been dedicated to the shelter, protection, and care of homeless cats, especially those that are often not considered adoptable by other organizations. Meet Hermitage cat Kayel:
Kayel is a sweet and spicy brown and white tabby lady! She’s 5 1/2 years old and came to the Hermitage in February of 2025 with her sister. They were former community cats, but luckily a family that had been caring for them spent a long time socializing them and helping them get used to humans. You can usually find Kayel in a cozy cubby near “Yeti’s corner” in the shelter.

You can help The Hermitage save more deserving felines like Kayel by purchasing one-of-a-kind, handcrafted Beading Divas bracelets. Cost per bracelet is $20. Bracelets make great gifts any time of year!
The best selection is online via Etsy but in Tucson you can also buy bracelets at Fuchsia Spa in La Encantada Shopping Center, and Silver Sea Jewelry in the historic 4th Avenue Shopping District (Silver Sea is open Tuesday-Sunday from noon-6pm.)
