Cat Forum / General Topics / July 2005Help !! Need info on anyone that can sponsor for spay
Need sponsors for spaying cats - Need to be done in one week (by 7/27/05) Please read: My sister and I are trying to help a family that has been taking in strays, (but can't really afford it) to find homes for them. They have forty cats / kittens.We have found homes for 2 moms and all the kittens, 6months and younger. We also found placements for the rest, but (15) the animals need to be spayed before the new homes will accept them. Hence the need for donations/ sponsors for spaying! The local shelter came down on them and gave them 5 days to find homes or turn them in to the shelter .**** They will be euthanized as they are received by shelter (PAWS) as they can't accomodate that many.*** We finally got a one week extension before they have to be turned in. So we are in dire need of help for our furry friends. contact: sandihumphrey@hotmail.com or sheri0625@insightbb.com  SignatureIncase you haven't heard, I sell Avon, & Mark.

Or maybe various vets ??? Around here the Humane Society will pay for spaying / nueter . They give a certificate to give the vet saying they will pay for the spaying / neutering . Yes I have tried every organization available in our area, (Peoria, Il) We are asking local vets to donate services too. >> Need sponsors for spaying cats - Need to be done in one week (by 7/27/05) > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > a certificate to > give the vet saying they will pay for the spaying / neutering . More information received about situation and how to handle any donations: Our local shelter, Peoria Animal Welfare Shelter, (PAWS) is NOT a no- kill Shelter.> Unfortunately, they have only given us a 1 week extension to place these animals ourselves, and to place them we must have them spayed or neutered. They ARE NOT ABLE to accept donations for us. We have been notified by the shelter that they have no room for any animals and all (even the nursingkittens) will be put down as soon as they arrive. Our deadline is FridayJuly 29, 2005. Any cats left will be euthanized. (hence the posting of the27th deadline, will give us a few days to get them to the Vet before they are taken from the family). I have been working with a not for profit organization called CAWS (Citizens for Animal Welfare and Shelter), they have worked very hard for us, but their funds are running very low, and they can only do so much. They have helped us find homes for all the adults (but must be spay/neutered before can take them there), and an organization called "Friends of Strays" in Princeton, IL are going to be able to take both nursing mothers and babies along with 7 kittens that are 6 months and younger. Donations can be sent to: CAWS (Citizens for Animal Welfare and Shelter) Attn: Rebecca Matheny 104 S. 13th St. Pekin, IL 61554-4945 They are licensed with the State of Illinois and registered with the Illinois Attorney General, and are a 501 (C3) not for profit organization. Donations are Tax Deductible, please send a request with your donation if you need a tax exempt letter and one will be sent. OR You can donate to the local Veterinary Clinic that helps the organization with Spay and Neuter procedures. Lang Animal Clinic Attn: CAWS 1305 Black Street Pekin, IL 61554 They will be sure that the donations are credited to the account for these animals. This Veterinary Clinic gives CAWS a discounted price of $50.00 for a spay, and $35.00 for a neuter, so a donation of $50.00 will be greatly appreciated as most of the cats are female. > Yes I have tried every organization available in our area, (Peoria, Il) > We are asking local vets to donate services too.

I can't verify any of your information except that Freinds of Strays does exist. However, I did find this. A no kill shelter in your town here is the link http://www.tapsshelter.org/ We are located in Pekin, Illinois, just outside of Peoria. Call if you need directions. TAPS Shelter 2675 Allentown Rd Pekin IL 61554 309 353 8277 We are open Tues-Fri 11-6. We are open Sat-Sun 11-5. We are closed Monday. Yeah, that's off their web site, so sue me. Stone |
