Here’s a Friday Feel Good Story…Another successful clinic. 27 cats (most of them females) are at the Vet waiting for their spay or neuter procedures. A huge shout out to our faithful volunteers in the community who bring these cats to our clinics. Here’s a picture of the loaded van and a few pictures of those felines willing to pose. 💕

Reminder that our certificate program is still on pause, but happy to report we are doing TNR clinics for stray cats. Message us if you are interested.

Paws for Prevention is on PAUSE issuing certificates. We must secure adequate funding before we issue any more. We can put you on a waiting list, but we do not recommend waiting to get your pet spayed or neutered! We do plan to start up with TNR cat clinics again in early 2025. Thank you, CRAWFORD COUNTY, for your support. Please continue to follow us on our FB page for updates and future fundraising.

Here’s a Friday Feel Good Story…Mr. Boots has appeared in a couple of comments of other Friday Feel Good Stories, and we believe he deserves his moment in the spotlight! His momma was a stray who had a litter in the backyard belonging to a caring human. Paws for Prevention helped trap momma and her babies (one being this handsome fellow) so everyone could be spayed or neutered at one of our clinics. And that was not an easy task! After that, one day, Mr. Boots just walked into the house of that caring human-we are not certain that he was invited-and he has not left. It makes us feel good that Mr. Boots took the initiative to walk into the right house! We know you are loved, Mr. Boots!

Here’s a Friday Feel Good Story…last Friday we had a TNR clinic. That means cats are trapped, then neutered, then released back where they were trapped. Twenty-nine Crawford County cats that had been contributing to the overpopulation problem (or were the result of this problem) were fixed! These cats were from all over the county. Caring people took time out of their busy lives to get these cats to us. Thank you to each one of you! In the first picture you’ll see that two cats were trapped in one trap. We are glad that worked out! The second picture shows the cats in their carriers in the back of Crawford County Humane Society’s van ready for transport. The towels covering the carriers allow the cats a sense of peace, at least somewhat, as they travel. The cats are also wrapped in these towels as they recover from their procedure. Much care is put into these clinics, and we are so thankful for Pet Wellness in Effingham to work with us. It makes us feel good to help Crawford County with the over-population problem it faces. If you have cats that you would like to bring to a future clinic, please message our page.

Who has thousands of homes in mind where these kittens can go? No one. There is nowhere for them to go! Shelters and rescues are overwhelmed. Euthanasia is happening to healthy animals all the time. We all can help with spay and neuter!
