The PFA feral team recently undertook a spring trapping blitz to try and prevent the births of unwanted kittens on the streets of Regina, especially surrounding our feeding stations in North Central and the Warehouse District.
The blitz began on March 20th. So far, we have rescued 48 cats.
TOTAL CATS RESCUED AND STERILIZED ON FERAL ROUTES: 45 (17 females, 28 males).
3 SINCE DECEASED: Hoss (taken to RHS by private citizen, probably a car hit), Simon the kitten (euthanized due to multiple disabilities and health problems), Clement (Warehouse cat severely injured, thus, humanely euthanized).
TOTAL FERAL CATS TNR'D (trap/neuter/release): 32 - 12 females (would have had litters on the street), 20 males.
TOTAL TAME CATS RESCUED: 6 (4 females who would have had litters on the street), 2 males. Plus Jade's 5 babies, now socialized = 11.
TOTAL TAME CATS IN FOSTER CARE OR BOARDING: 4. Honey, Stroller, Jana, and 1 of Jade's babies left (Dusty).
TOTAL TAME CATS ALREADY ADOPTED: 6: Buffy, 3 of Jade's kittens, Peaches and Shawn.
We also worked with a private citizen to trap, neuter and release three feral cats in the Glencairn area. All 3 have now been relocated to a screened and approved farm. 2 males, 1 female.
Total rescues = 48.
Thanks so much to all of the volunteers who have worked so hard to make this happen, and to all of our wonderful supporters and donors who understood the importance of this blitz. We have prevented the births of literally hundreds of cats this spring!
