Lanai City, Hawaii · 66 mi / 107 km

Lanai Cat Sanctuary is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit on four acres near Lanai City, about five minutes from Lanai Airport, and home to more than 700 rescue cats. Founded in 2006 by Kathy Carroll with 25 cats and a horse corral, it has since saved over 3,000 cats from hunger and homelessness. It is not a cafe: visitors walk among the free-roaming cats, known as the Lanai Lions, with plenty of chins to scratch and photos to take. Every cat has a name, a microchip and a medical record, and the sanctuary also protects the island's native ground-nesting seabirds by keeping feral cats away from them. Admission is free, it is open every day of the year from 9am to 3pm, and many visitors come over from Maui by ferry. Cats can be adopted or sponsored.
