This month we
are celebrating the milestone of trapping 102 cats in our neighborhood for the TNR
program. Know that the woods by our home is a dumping ground for
abandoned cats. So my husband and I along with two neighbors worked
together in trapping the cats, taking them to the veterinarian for
cat disease tests, vaccines (rabies, cat respiratory, and Feline
Leukemia), and sterilization.

We did not return or release
all of the cats. There were many strays that we tried to socialize
so that they could be adopted into forever homes. The feral or stray cats
that could not be socialized were released to a private property
colony with daily caretakers.
It took us 7 years to reach 102 trapped and rescued feral and stray cats
and we are all proud of our accomplishment. Learn
more about our cat cause here.
Know that we are not affiliated with any charity and pay for all cat medical expenses, food, and outdoor cat houses, out of our own pocket or from donations given to us by cat-loving neighbors. Cat rescue and adoption is our cause because we love cats.
Here
are some photos of the cats that we have trapped, picked up, or rescued over the
years.
