The organizations have partnered to offer highly discounted spay and neuter surgeries for community cats.
ROANOKE, Va., Dec. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Alley Cat Rescue is partnering with Mountain View Humane to help spay and neuter community cats.
Alley Cat Rescue promotes Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) as an effective method to humanely control the population of community cats, improve community cat welfare, and decrease shelter euthanasia. This work is especially crucial now, with shelters across the country overflowing with surrendered pets and a backlog of spay/neuter surgeries.
Louise Holton is the founder and president of Alley Cat Rescue. She has been an advocate for many years for TNR instead of euthanization of outdoor cats. Holton explained how TNR benefits community cats: "It's such a tragedy that cats end up in shelters, and a large percentage of them are outdoor cats. Sterilization of outdoor cats not only keeps them healthy, it saves their lives because if those cats end up in a shelter, they are deemed unadoptable and routinely euthanized."
Individuals and rescue organizations are encouraged to take advantage of this offer without delay. To schedule your appointment, contact Mountain View Humane at (540) 382-0222. Please note- all feral cats must come in a feral cat trap. For further details, visit mvhclinic.org/feral-cat-package/.
