Pit Stop meets Community Cats - Spay / Neuter!
Tax deductible
Pit Stop meets Community Cats – Please help us to spay / neuter community pets in need! Every donation will help save countless lives!
The Pit Stop program is a free spay / neuter program offered to the Paterson, NJ community to decrease the growing culture of Pit bull breeding and fighting. We have recently implemented a Community Cats program that goes hand-in-hand with Pit Stop, offering a free spay / neuter program aimed at low income families to decrease the unintentional breeding and abandonment of cats. Every $150 saves another dog, and every $75 saves another cat from a life of trauma.
This area is low income and is saturated with dog breeding and fighting, overwhelmingly with Pit bulls. The number of stray and feral cats is shocking, as breeding is overwhelmingly unintentional and due to a lack of spay / neuter resources. The lack of resources and humane education has created a growing and already large problem.
Pit bull puppies and kittens are handed out on the street or sold. Many end up in animal control, and many more end up on the streets, tied in yards or involved in dog fighting (cats / kittens are sadly used as bait). It has been our experience that very few are spayed or neutered. The lack of spay / neuter also creates additional concerns medically and behaviorally causing families to surrender their pets or put them outside.
Many residents are open to spay / neuter options but are not actively seeking these options. That is where WE come in. Participants will have their pets picked up and brought to a veterinarian for a spay or neuter, as many residents do not have access to transportation. RBARI will provide any other needed medical care, returning the pet with food and supplies to continue to build our relationship with the community.
The goal is to promote proper humane education and decrease breeding. Over time our hope is to change the outlook of the community with regards to animal welfare. This program will save hundreds of dogs and cats from a live of pain and suffering.
