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?!?! ❤️😻❤️😻❤️

Pledges to Save ‘Rubble’ in Urgent Need of Care

Rubble, now Rebel, was running stray and ended up at ACCT at risk of euthanasia due to medical and behavioral concerns.

She needed confirmed placement with a rescue partner ASAP and quickly, a rescue stepped up to care for her!

After seeing her sweet face, full of scars and wounds, we just knew we had to donate toward her rescue.

Our pledge of $400 went to our friends at National Greyhound Adoption Program.

Read her story below and send this sweet girl well wishes to feel better soon!

“Rubble is an adult mixed breed dog who was found as a stray on 10/26. Luckily, she was microchipped, so we were able to reach out to the owner, however, unfortunately they were not able to reclaim due to health issues. They stated that Rubble is friendly and usually social with people. She is “does not care much for interaction” with other animals. The owner also said she has very bad skin allergies.

A medical exam showed that Rubble has severe, chronic superficial pyoderma and malassezia dermatitis, as well as bilateral ear infections. Per the vet, she will need further diagnostics to rule out an issue secondary to underlying atopy or food allergy, or flea allergy vs. demodectic or sarcoptic mange vs. another issue. She will require prolonged courses of antibiotics and antifungals, as well as possible chronic allergy treatment or a specialized diet. Medicated baths would be ideal, as would the application of Bravecto to rule out mange, despite a negative skin scraping.

While still a little fearful (understandably in the shelter environment!), Rubble seems to be adjusting slowly to the shelter environment, and has made both human and doggie friends! She has seemed thrilled to play with dog friends during meets. She urgently needs to leave with a rescue partner who can follow up on her medical issues, and also work with her on her fearfulness. She has been through a lot in a short space of time, so would love to be able to decompress and recover from her medical issues.”

Doc Rescued in Final Moments of Life

“Cats may have 9 lives, but our newest save Doc (formerly Max) has at least 2!
Doc was slated for euthanasia at 10 am this morning at a local shelter because he had some medical needs the very full shelter could not support. However we had other plans and 2 hours (!!) past his expired timestamp we found out this little dude was still around and rea he’s out and one of our volunteers raced down to grab him! He will be seeing our vet in the next few days for a suspected broken leg and will need some diagnostics, at the very minimum and try to find out the source of his pain and limp and the best course of action for him. Welcome to Dog Town Rescue, Doc! Donations can also be sent via Venmo to @dog-town-rescue” – Dog Town Rescue

We were honored to donate towards giving Doc a second chance at life!
