All funds raised will benefit the Humane Solution Spay-Neuter Program’s Feral Cat Fund, which helps subsidize spay-neuter surgeries and vaccines for feral/community cats in our area. Each year, Humane Solution provides vouchers for over 400 feral/community cats, easing the burden on our shelters and reducing dangerous outdoor births. This event is being matched by a $2,000 grant to provide support for feral/community cats. Please help us reach our $2,000 goal by donating. Your donation helps us work toward a future where the cycle of unwanted litters is broken, every pet has a loving home, and essential veterinary care is accessible to all, regardless of income. Let’s come together, celebrate our furry companions, and make a difference!
