In 2007, four hundred cats and kittens were placed in homes with families where they were indoor kitties, and were allowed outdoors only under the careful supervision of their adoptive families.

 Our assisted spay/neuter grant was renewed, and we helped 252 low-income owners spay and neuter their cats.  Female cats normally have about ten kittens per year so we prevented about 1,260 unwanted kittens from being born. We started a new feral spay/alter program mid year.  We paid for 96 feral cats to be altered, thus preventing another 480 kittens from being born. Our adoptive cats and kittens received two immunizations, worming, testing, parasite control and were altered. 

 We were fortunate to have 40 volunteers, divided between fund raising, accounting, maintenance, and assisting with cleaning and socializing in three shifts daily, seven days a week.  Our shelter volunteers were assisted by high school students who volunteered to get credit for some of their classes.  Some of our volunteers actually were here twenty hours per week cleaning and doing our never ending laundry.

 We had an unusually busy year, with the population in our shelter and other buildings at an average of about 88 kitty residents, and 70 others were in foster homes.  Our foster home parents had access to litter, food and medical care.

 We thank the community members for their donations and also our grant donors; without their help we could certainly not continue our shelter activities.
