This week has been tough for me with the hot weather and the mess I have been cleaning up after the flood! The smelly mess from the runoff behind my house has caused me much unneeded work and stress...just getting rid of the smelly runoff mud from back yard items like rugs and chairs has taken a toll on me. I lost my bridge to the backyard and it finally dried off enough for me to build a replacement! The cats that I shelter and feed have done alright...thank God!
Our cat group is hoping by putting up a GoFundMe Page that we will be able to eliminate new problems that have shown up in the form of young cats that have been left in town and who need to be fixed.. if not they will provide the area with more! Neutering and spaying has cost so much that many just have given up trying to find help and have just dumped some off! Kittens are fun to play with but they become cats too soon who will be bring you kittens. Male cats need to be fixed to prevent kittens as well as female cats many males are lost when they rake off to find females. Roaming males have accounted for many of the local broods.
I have a cat I have named Willie Williams..who I found curled up in a ball in the middle of the intersection down here in the winter. HIs eyes and his nose were covered in hardened mucus and he was starved. I picked him and brought him to a cage on my porch fed him and gave him some medicine...today Willie is blind for the most part because of this neglect, but he is getting around nicely and loves to sit on my desk while I am working. He actually has become my favorite...I say the Willie Williams is my only "Welch" cat!
I paid for trip to the cheapest vet in the area...who is way too busy and had Willie neutered...it still cost me money that I have very little of since my Christmas Eve house fire, the two tree tragedy of last fall and this flood!
The truth is the whole area has been besieged by kittens and drop off young cats just go on line and read some of the stories on NEXT DOOR or Facebook. So my plea... if you can donate even $5 dollars to our not for profit "4 Community Cats Inc." I will be so grateful and so will your neighbors when they don't find a bunch of kittens near their house or in their back yard and have to decide to try and do something!
