We posted this late, but we are so grateful that Carmel Magazine featured FERAL CATS, and the fight trappers face in the streets daily. It is humbling to have people take notice of the passion project we are doing. We need the public's help in this. I hope that through our posts and our work, when people see the street cats, they will CARE about the cats, like we do.

I was mentored as I entered the cat world by two amazingly ethical ladies (Shelley and Lisa) who taught me and continue to teach me. I knew zero about cats. I wanted to help one cat that had a couple of litters on my property. The ferals in my area made me fall in love with their little faces, and I wanted to keep helping more cats. There is nothing as effective as TNR in all of rescue. I encourage you to look into these little faces and help us advocate. 

Thank you Carmel Magazine for shining some light on this topic in such a visually beautiful way.                     -Maria

This video sums up so much of what we believe. These students saw a momma and her litter at their school. They knew help was needed. Fortunately, one of the students is the daughter of one of our fosters. We helped provide traps and guidance, but the desire to ACT was all theirs. They trapped momma and her litter of four. It took a little time and several attempts. 

Our foster and her daughter fostered the kittens and worked to make them domestic so they could be spared the lives of feral cats. All kittens got adopted! Momma cat was spayed and vaccinated and returned to her area. Momma cat was feral and ferals should be returned to their original area.

We need the next generation. We need to guide them in solutions and support their desire to help. We won't be able to address all the need on our own forever. We have to enlist help. Isn't it wonderful that our youth can be part of the answer?

Thank you to all of our donors and supporters! We have hit the 500 mark! 500 community cats, owned cats, or owned dogs have been fixed in OUR NEIGHBORHOODS thanks to our voucher program. We provide access to areas that have historically had limited access to affordable services. Our volunteers transport, set up appointments, trap and facilitate in any way needed. Thank you to partner vets, especially Snip Bus, AFRP Clinic, and Pet Maintenance & Repair for providing low-cost services.

We need your help to do more! Donate today with our donate button. You can also click monthly to make it an automatic monthly donation. The bulk of our budget is going to spay and neuter.

We are celebrating 200 animals rescued in four months, Mid-March to mid-July! Two hundred was more of a projected goal for our first year. We are so excited to have hit the mark much earlier than expected. We extend our appreciation to our fosters, adopters, transporters and partner rescues who help get these dogs and cats into new forever homes. Here's to the next two hundred!
