Philadoptables Sponsored Spay & Neuter Clinic – OVER 40 Cats Served

We are honored to donate $4,000 and sponsor a spay/neuter clinic for our friends at The Cat Collaborative!

From TCC, “FInishing out 2022 as strong as we started it! This past week, thanks to the generosity of Philadoptables, we were able to host a spay/neuter clinic at Raymond Rosen in North Philly! 36 cats were sterilized by the Fido Fixers van from Providence Animal Center and another 7 received updated vaccinations and flea treatment (Bravecto, no less)!! We were also able to send the cats home with a gift bag AND a carrier to keep (thanks to the generosity of many people and other groups).

The residents were so appreciative of our assistance and although we had to turn a number of people away because of we were totally over capacity, we ended up with a waiting list for the next event – now we just need a sponsor 🤪😻🤪😻!

And, finally, HUGE thanks to the incredible TCC volunteers who went above and beyond to make this event a success 💕💕💕. An additional 3 cats were trapped during the event who went to Forgotten Cats to get fixed making it a total of 46 cats who received care!! Isn’t it amazing what collaboration can do?!?! ❤️😻❤️😻❤️
