July Feral Fixes: Stats, Stories, and Adoptions Ahead

Wrapping Up July

  • 7/31 – DCAS – 18 friendlies, 8 ferals. 12 males, 12 females. Still think it’s neat when we have 50 – 50 on the sexes! So many kittens headed for adoption! Please consider adding a furry feline to your household!

Total: July 131, year-to-date 467, since 2007 16,201!

As Many As Possible As Soon As Possible

 

Many times we end up using more than the TNR room before surgery. Heat, rain, family responsibilities, so many reasons contributing to only 8 ferals this week!


If You Can’t Say Something Positive…

Positive calls of the day so far:

  • Inquiry about a missing feral, worried about how she was, and did we trap her? Think so, got her and her kittens and mom should be coming back today. Had hideous worms so hopefully we fixed that for her! Trapped one block over from the caller and told her cat should show up the next day or so and advised on future worm treatment and how behavior may now change with the hormones gone! Kittens are thinking about not spitting and attacking, so that’s positive!
  • Another call, people are trying to do the work themselves, found a home for two kittens, took two kittens to DCAS and needed to borrow a trap to get the mom and plan to take to DCAS for s/n. Such a huge help to us! We don’t have surgeries scheduled for next week so are trying to keep TNR room empty as much as we can.

Positive (for most part) email today so far:

  • We helped some caretakers five years ago. A friend of theirs plans to make a bequest to Feral Fixers as he has heard nothing but good things about us. We hope this donation is not made any time soon but we so appreciate that people think what we do is so important that they tell their friends.

Things are very difficult right now but there are bright spots!


Adoption Event – 8/3/25

Our next adoption event is Sunday, August 3rd, 1pm - 4pm at Feral Fixers. Come check out our foster cats and kittens! So many available! More than can be at the building on same day! Fill out an application in advance, Adoptables page has most of our cats posted, but advisable to have your application on file if you see the best match! 

We Could Not Do What We Do Without YOU!

Where there is a will, there's a way! That gap is maybe an inch and a half!
