We need YOU to reach out to more cats in 2024

When you give to Cat Network of Stanislaus, you’ll be helping to change the lives of cats and people all around our county who desperately need access to affordable veterinary care. The bond is so strong between cats and the people who feed them. Even if the cats are wild. When a feeder reaches out to us for help with spay and neuter, we want to be there for them. Only more resources and funding will help us keep this program going. Spay and neuter is the only solution to control the population. We hope you want be part of it.

The stories of 2023 are a testament to the resilience of humans and cats. Despite the many challenges we have faced our commitment to the cause has not wavered. One of the best parts has been all new humans who reached out to us for help. And their willingness to learn how to best help cats in their area. Most cats just need to be "fixed" so no more kittens are born. But some have had major medical needs and we want to be there for them as well. They all deserve the help.

Beau is one of our winter strays found limping badly. A long year of mating and the fights that come with it had caused a major abscess in a leg. Once captured Beau headed to the vet for an exam, wound care and antibiotics. His upper respiratory infection was treated as well. One month later, Beau is looking clean and healthier. A few weeks ago we went back to the place Beau had lived and trapped 7 more that were fixed at one of our spay days. And we will continue until every cat is fixed in that colony.

As we enter a new year we hope you'll join us making more stories like Beau's. With all the ups and downs it entails it's sure to be rewarding as always.
