Our clinic family suffered an incredible loss April 26, 2023 when, Carol Olson, our director’s mother, a devoted wife and mother, feral cat trapper extraordinaire, kitten tamer and all around amazing human being passed away. “Feral Carol” was widely known throughout Ventura County for her passion and extraordinary efforts to trap feral cats and rescue / adopt cats and kittens through the non-profit Pink Paws and Simi Valley Spay and Neuter Clinic: She will be forever loved, remembered, and appreciated as a member of the feline rescue community. Few realize the many undesirable locations / situations that her dedicated work took her: From sewers and roof tops to chimneys and dark alleys. Carol cared for kittens until they could be adopted, and treated sick felines until they could fend for themselves - no small task for anyone who has tamed down even one cat. Carol’s work within the feline community was tireless, yet she always managed to have a smile on her face…and room for yet one more cat / kitten. She will be deeply missed by the community, friends, and her family. We are all heartbroken.
