My name is Carrie Lorig, and I do my best to take care of the outdoor cats in my Atlanta neighborhood. The house I moved into came with a colony, and after we got everyone TNR'ed or adopted, I started learning about what I could do to support the other community cats in my neighborhood. I TNR, I foster, and I help feed my outdoor friends. Dogwood Pepperoni, aka "Woody P.," became part of an elderly neighbor's colony after her owner passed away. I support that colony by feeding them once a day and keeping up with their flea medicine. Woody P. loves food, pets, rolling on the ground, and shaking her tail with excitement when I come by with Friskies.

I paid for Woody P. to go to the vet for some persisting respiratory symptoms, and the vet said that she also urgently needs a dental cleaning. I received an estimate (~$350) from a clinic in the Atlanta area, and am looking to raise that amount for her dental cleaning with a little extra just in case. If there are *any* leftover funds, they will be used to spay/neuter additional cats in our local Sylvan Hills neighborhood.
