I need help

My story is that i am currently feeding between 8-10 feral cats in Midway. Florida. I am happy to feed these fur babies. I am happy to do my part. BUT! The are reproducing at a rapid rate.This a very small community in rural Florida. There are no resources to help me. I want to catch and Spay/neuter these animals. I have 3 humane traps, but no resources to afford to spay/neuter these feral cats and nothing is in my area to help. I have set up a gofundme account and would like to advertize to get about $500 to spay/neuter these wonderful animals. Can you please help? http://www.gofundme.com/tcsdpw



I know about several cats. Two tortoiseshells, Mama cat and split face. There is a Tom, silver man. A couple of babies, Oreo and Jell Bean and Orange boy. Recently Mama cat and Splitface have had litters. When their babies are old enough i want to catch them. Spay/neuter and release. I need help though. My rural Florida community doesn't have any resources for this. I am an hourly waged nurse with a disabled spouse and can't afford to do this on my own. Please help if you can. I will use all funds to help these babies. Thank you.

General Discussion goes so fast that other threads get hidden pretty far back really quickly. Loads and loads of people here though regularly stop in here, so give it a day or so, and you'll get responses.

It's so fabulous what you're doing to help these poor feral kitties!

Navigate through the "Get Help" link and find their contact form "Feral Friends Network Connect" step one.

I'm located in IL and have worked with them in the recent past. Few years back I was assisted in trap and release with relocation of near 30 cats from one old house. I lost count how just many cats I had finally trapped at that one home. Had all cats get a brief Vet exam, spayed/neutered, wormed, treated for fleas and vaccinated FPV/FCV plus Rabies. Several new traps and large crates were made available to me. All help was at no cost to me and they directed two volunteers to help with the many round trip transports to the clinic.
