Candy Rescued in Northeast Philadelphia

Candy was trapped in Northeast Philly. A citizen reached out about 3 cats she was feeding outside that needed help. Pat Maher responded and trapped Candy and took her to get spayed at Forgotten Cats. Candy went to a temporary foster home where she was having trouble eating and had a strong odor coming from her mouth. It was determined that Candy needed dental work and Philadoptables sponsored her much needed dental surgery at Forgotten Cats where she had 7 rotten teeth removed. Candy is feeling better already and is a happier cat as a result of the dental! Community cats like Candy require dental care and vet care just like house cats and we are honored that we could help Candy feel better!

Free Pet Food Pantry & 100+ Pets Vaccinated!

Over 100+ pets were vaccinated and given supplies at the latest free Pet Food Pantry and Vaccine Clinic! Hosted by Philly Pets Vax Project, Life Foundation, Harley’s Haven Dog Rescue, and Philadoptables, the event happened in less than ideal weather, because rain or shine, the dedication to the animals in our community is strong!

Thanks to our supporters, we can assist with these events by lessening the burden on struggling families with pets, shelters, and our animal community network. Way to go, everyone!

5 New TNR Traps for The Cat Collaborative

Meow!

The Cat Collaborative has been hard at work helping cats in our community. Since November 2021, 187 cats and kittens have been through TCC’s TNR program. Of the 187 cats trapped, 69% have found rescue placement!

We were happy to help our friends at TCC continue their life saving work by purchasing five brand new traps!

In celebration we donated $1,000 each to 13 amazing animal rescue partners. We are just one small part of a strong community of area animal advocates helping animals (and the people who love them) in need! Cheers to 13 years!
