Thank You, PennyFix, Inc.!

Picture
With the support of PennyFix, Inc., over the summer of 2020, HCMT was able to provide sterilization procedures, rabies shots, flea treatment, ear mite treatment and FVRCP vaccinations to 50 cats!

One HCMT volunteer benefiting from the PennyFix supported sterilization clinic is working on a TNR project at a local trailer park. She first became aware of the trailer park’s need for help when a young cat was found with a fishing hook embedded through his eyelid. After multiple attempts, he was successfully trapped. While trying to trap this little one, the HCMT volunteer on site engaged with many residents who desperately asked for help.

Overall, there are around 50 cats at this site that HCMT will work to sterilize. With support from PennyFix, HCMT was able to get a jump start on this site and sterilize six cats.

Additional projects benefiting from PennyFix’s support include TNR on a local farm and numerous urban communities!

Thank you to the Pittsburgh Foundation

Thanks to The Pittsburgh Foundation for their awesome grant award to the Homeless Cat Management Team! As part of the grant we purchased 10 traps for trappers, 2 nets for the clinic and 1 infusion pump for use at the clinic. The 10 traps have been provided to various trappers to further HCMT's mission of spaying/neuter and vaccinating. The funding for this project was provided by the Ruth D. Simpson Fund of The Pittsburgh Foundation.

Help Keep Homeless Cats Warm and Fed this Winter!

In just a couple months the temperatures in our area will dip low, and the requests for help with providing shelters and food for homeless or community cats will begin to pour in. We need your help! 
  • For $25 you can sponsor one "Winter Shelter" - this will provide 1 winter shelter that is stuffed with straw that 2 cats can share. 
  • For $35 you can sponsor a "Winter Cat Care Package" - this will include 1 winter shelter and a large bag of dry food. 
  • For $45 you can sponsor a "Winter Cat Care Package PLUS" - this will include 1 winter shelter, 1 large bag of dry food, and 12 cans of wet food. 

Donate through our YouCaring.com fundraiser:

We will use the money to buy materials to make the shelters, as well as buy shelters that are already made. 

All shelters/food will be delivered to colony caretakers in the Pittsburgh Area. 

You can also donate any amount you'd like! If 10 people donate $5 we can do 2 of the shelters! Your help is greatly appreciated! MEOW!
