It’s Time to Save Some Lives!

Hi, my name is Brandee and I'm trying to raise $1 700 to help a feral cat rescue that I support. That is why I have increased the original total on this fundraiser. I am very grateful for all the donations we've received since we launched.

The past 4 years have been very busy and stressful years for Happy Ferals with many emergencies and they need help to pay off this vet bill, so that they are able to keep treating not only chronic conditions, but also any emergencies that come up.

They lost two of their beautiful residents recently. Domino passed towards the end of August and her mother Baggins on 15 November. On Wednesday, 27 November, one of their beautiful boys, Darcy, had to undergo life-saving hernia surgery which was kindly funded by donations.

They are still paying off the bills for the cats that passed and are currently treating some cats for anemia and one for an ongoing fungal sinus infection. All of this is in addition to their regular medical needs for cats that have recurring respiratory infections, skin conditions and chronic IBS.

The cats receive daily care as directed by a licensed veterinarian, and while they budget for those, they rely almost entirely on donations to cover the costs of out-of-the-ordinary veterinary visits and medications.

Who Are Happy Ferals?

Happy Ferals was established in 2013 when a litter of feral kittens was found in some bushes. From there, it grew into an independent no-cage, no kill feral cat sanctuary, which is home to 26 feral-born cats. This sanctuary was created after the original colony was threatened with harm in their original home. Not wishing to see any of them hurt or killed, a solution was quickly found. All the cats have been spayed and neutered and receive round-the-clock care and attention by the sanctuary owner, Jo. Jo and her family have created an idyllic environment for the cats who have a large catio full of plenty of space to run, play or just chill out. They also have access to indoor spaces. This setup means that they can live a long and happy life without the threat of predators or urban hazards.

In addition to caring for these felines, the rescue runs a Facebook group for the education, support, and networking of other rescuers and individuals working with feral cats in their areas. Jo has helped over 200 rescuers around the world with efforts to provide care and homes for at-risk ferals and continues to personally interact with and provide information to visitors and group members on a daily basis.

What We Are Asking For:

Happy Ferals is trying to raise $1 700 to pay off their vet bill. All funds raised will go directly to the veterinarian providing care to the cats. Any additional funds raised above our target amount will be put into savings for future veterinary care.

Please consider donating to help these beautiful, rescued felines. Every dollar raised brings them closer to knocking out this debt and continuing to provide safe shelter and care to their wonderful furry family.

Thank you, from all of us.
