December 2, 2024 - December 31, 2024 - Black Cat Giving Tuesday Fundraiser! - We participate in Giving Tuesday differently than other non-profits – our campaign continues until midnight of 12/31/24, so you have almost a month to participate – but keep in mind that your donation encourages others to do so as well so please don’t wait until the last moment! We also have pledged matching funds of $25,000! Of course, costs are rising and currently spay/neuter packages are over $100/cat. Can you imagine funding the spay/neuter of almost 500 cats with just one fundraiser? We focus on publicity for our black cats at this time of year, please take a look at some of our wonderful representatives! Please share your photos and stories, join in and help us raise funds for the coming year!

April 15, 2025 - Photo Contest Deadline! - This is the deadline for sending in photo entries for the 2025-2026 Holiday Card Contest. As many of you know, each year Feral Fixers sends out a Holiday Greeting card to everyone on our current mailing/donor list. Beginning with the 2012 card, the picture on the card was chosen from entries made by you, our friends and supporters. While there is no monetary prize awarded for the winning entry, the winning photographer will be credited on the Holiday card. The picture should definitely say "winter" and "outdoor cat". A shelter would be nice but is certainly not required. We can accept pictures in nearly any format as long as the resolution is acceptable. Please send your submissions to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Good luck!
