Do you have room in your home for a cat, or two?
November 24th, 2009 by admin
Volunteers and veterinarians from the Maddie’s Shelter Medicine Program at the University of Florida are working feverishly to evaluate the health of the estimated 600 cats who were surrendered last week by the 10th Life “sanctuary” in Hendry County (read our previous posts here and here). Although many of the cats will require veterinary care, many others are healthy and available for adoption.
Caring for 600 cats places an enormous burden on those organizations that have stepped up to help these neglected cats. Each cat who finds a new, safe and permanent home reduces that burden, and allows UF and local humane agencies to put more resources into caring for those cats suffering from diseases.
Can you help?
If you are interested in adopting, please contact the City of LaBelle Animal Control at (863) 675-3381.
Thank you!
