The thoughts and kindness behind this are wonderful. However, I think it could get way too confusing. It is a big responsibility to collect, track and properly distribute the donation funds. In the instances where several people have a problem at the same time who is responsible to oversee suitable distribution of the funds? Who will be accountable for the fund? How will it be audited to protect against abuse or misuse? I believe this should remain a “chat” site where, through advice, humor, and pictures, we provide help where and when it is needed. Solicitation of money requires significant oversight and controls that a chat board does not provide.

Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers
