***************

My dear Blake Aronson has been a longtime caregiver for the street cats of Cambodiatown, Long Beach, providing food, medical care, and spay/neuter surgeries to the regulars around his home. He and Sam have made a substantial financial commitment to these cats.

TLDR: This spring, there have been quite a few expenses despite all efforts to source supplies and care for free and reduced costs. (No rescues have been open for intake or TNR!) Please consider contributing a bit toward the successful rescue of 5 kittens and spaying of 2 young feral cats. The running total is up to $720 and there's still more work to be done!

This spring, I joined Blake in his mission to:

-capture 2 young feral cats who have already given birth to two litters each, to be spayed and released to live our their lives with no more pregnancies!

-catch their 8ish-week-old kittens (5 all together!) to be socialized with humans at an age where it's still possible to have indoor homes but old enough to be away from mom.

Results as of 6/8:

-Judy (mom) – trapped, SPAYED, RELEASED!

-Joey (Judy’s son) – trapped, socialized, ADOPTED!

-Frankie (Judy’s daughter) – trapped, socialized, ADOPTED!

-Cassie (mom) – still at large

-Timmy (Cassie's son) - trapped, socialized, ADOPTION PENDING!

-Lex (Cassie's daughter) - trapped, socialized, ADOPTED!

-Cassie’s 3rd kitten – still at large

THANK YOU SO MUCH to:

-the adopters! (who have taken on not only the long-term care of these cats but the cost burden of some kitten medical care that shelters would normally cover)

-all those who have shared the call for kitten homes with their networks and actively recruited adopters

-volunteer kitten handlers

-Emily, for endless kitten advice!!!
