People for Animals has been busy these past few weeks, working to trap and sterilize the many cats that we feed and shelter on our feral cat routes in the inner city. We have already succeeded in trapping 25 cats, but we know that there are so many more left to do, and we fear the repercussions of the many unwanted pregnancies that will result without intervention. Because one female cat can have as many as four litters per year, a single sterilization can prevent an average of twenty unwanted kittens.
We are committed to this trap/neuter/release process to decrease the excess population of stray cats in Regina. It works! However, each sterilization that we undertake costs money, and our current efforts have been so successful that we have already exhausted the funds that we had set aside for this spring effort. Without added funds, we will be forced to stop this spring trapping and sterilization blitz, which will result in many kittens being born on the street. We know that there are still at least 20 to 30 more cats that we could easily trap and sterilize with enough funds.
Can you help us? The average neuter costs $100, and the average spay costs $130. Contributions of every size will help make a difference, and decrease the feline suffering, homelessness and unwanted reproduction that is happening in our city.
