Feral Colony Needs Your Help!

Hey! My name is Kalani and I lost my job a few months, so I need a bit of help feeding a colony of feral cats. I currently spend more money feeding the kitties than I do on groceries for myself! With winter right around the corner, I need to purchase a heated water bowl and build a food station.

The story of my ferals/strays started about two years ago when my 17 year old cat, Lucy, needed to start on a special diet for kidney disease and I had to do something with her old food. I knew there were cats in the neighborhood, so I started putting it out for them. I came to know the cats, and started naming them. Buster (the poster cat) is a big bruiser of a cat with a busted-down ear, so I called him Buster Brown. I didn't much like Buster at first because, like a true feral, he came and ate, but he hissed and took off at the first sight of me. Two years later, and now he hisses and then head butts my legs. I have learned so much about cats by working with these guys!

I currently feed 8 cats and ALL of them need to be TNR'd (which costs $50 per cat). The one female that I have really needs to be 'fixed' before February, which is when she goes into heat. I hope to receive enough funds to TNR everyone, and to be able to have flea treatments and dewormers on hand too. Lastly, I would like to get a shed specifically for the cats for winter and equip it with heated beds. Winters here can reach 40 degrees below zero!! 

Any assistance you can provide to help these cats, will be very much appreciated by myself and the cats!

Thank you!!
