Hi everyone,

Over the past few years, I’ve watched a group of stray cats make our backyard their home. I’ve seen them grow from tiny kittens into adults, and now there’s another new set of babies starting the same cycle. It’s both beautiful and heartbreaking because while they’ve found a safe space here, they still struggle every day with hunger and the challenges of living outside.

Our neighbor next door is involved in programs like Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and has assisted heavily with providing food and shelter for these cats. However, currently, she's not in the best health, and as broke college students, we can only do so much financially to support these cute little ones.

Right now, there are around 20 different cats who come by. To give them shelter, we built a heated and insulated cat house so they have somewhere to stay warm and dry during the rain and snow. They use it when they can in harsh weather, but with so many of them, it’s not enough. More than anything, these cats need consistent food and care, and that’s where I’m hoping for your support.

I do what I can to feed them, but it’s becoming overwhelming. With your help, I can:

- Provide steady food and fresh water for all the cats

- Maintain and improve their shelter for the harsh weather

- Give the kittens and adults a better chance at survival and a healthier life

These cats didn’t choose this life, but I see them every day fighting to get by. Every donation, no matter the size, helps fill their bowls and keeps them safe. I just want to give them the chance they deserve.

Thank you so much for caring and for helping me make a difference in their lives. ❤️
