Small Town Cat Project

Sat Sep 14 at 10:00am

Larysa and Ashley work tirelessly and with compassion to step in, provide services and bridge the gap when other organizations cannot offer assistance due to overcrowding, staffing etc.

Both have other commitments but are there when help is needed, humanely trapping, providing medical care, fostering and rehoming.

Often costs are out of their own pockets, so please help if you can.

 

 

About The Vendors

Small Town Cat Project

We are a small grassroots, volunteer-run program based in Northumberland County which endeavors to bridge resources between the community, and our local animal rescues & shelters. We rely completely on public donations and receive no funding. 100% of donations go towards the necessary medical intervention of injured or sick stray (unowned) cats, as well as spays & neuters to help end the breeding cycle. 

To date, we have set up partnerships with Presquile Animal Hospital (Brighton) and The Southeastern Ontario Spay/Neuter Clinic (Trenton). We are always looking for more support!

Our mission is clear: We aim to swiftly provide safety, immediate medical attention as needed, and essential vetting to these animals. While we are NOT a rescue and limited in our own resources, meaning we do not have a facility nor a pet adoption program, we do hope to relieve the strain on our rescue partners who in turn facilitate the adoption journeys of the cats we help.

With shelters and rescues often overwhelmed and more so than ever before, our focus on urgent cases ensures these cats receive the critical care they need until they eventually move on to the rescues and shelters with whom we gratefully partner. Where needed most, we aim to help end unnecessary suffering with utmost compassion and be the voice for those who otherwise have no one to speak for them.

TNR/TNRM*, and equally education, are at the centre of what we do. We endeavour to educate and build awareness within our community about the resources and solutions available to positively impact the lives of stray and feral cats. With outdoor cat populations rapidly increasing, this is critical as it also becomes a human welfare issue as people struggle with managing overwhelming numbers on countless properties across the county. 

While what we do is limited by our resources of time and funds as a small volunteer group, and may seem but a drop in a vast ocean, we believe our efforts not only save lives but also support the broader animal welfare community in changing perceptions, one stray cat a time. 

Your support is so appreciated!
