The beautiful cat desk calendar Soncat gave me last Christmas has something worth sharing today:
"Today we celebrate National Feral Cat Day. Just 20 years ago, most Americans didn't know how to care for stray and feral cats. Thanks to Alley Cat Allies, trap-neuter-return programs are widespread. Hundreds of local groups work on their behalf, and millions of us have made donations. For more information, go to
www.alleycat.org"
:D I did TNRM under one of their "friends."
I have a Cat Alley shirt that I bought many years ago.

I am sort of a Cat Ally myself , hers Kevin Scrapster!!!

They do a fine job spreading the word/advocacy on behalf of ferals, and I used to donate to them. Then my friend pointed out that they don't actually do the leg work of trapping, neutering, etc. like grass roots groups do, so I prefer to support those who are out in the trenches getting their hands dirty. My cat-lover friend had an issue with her town where strays were having kittens (she was taking care of them) and someone complained. One kitten died and tested positive for rabies, so the town trapped ALL the cats/kittens and had them euthanized!:mad:. She sought assistance from Alley Cat Allies but they offered no help whatsoever with her tragic situation.:(
