Lee, if I knew Karen's physical address I could have PetFlow or another Petfood company deliver several large bags of cat food to her. I wish I could do more, but I have 30 cats of my own and a very expensive no kill, cageless cat sanctuary building to keep up. PLease keep us updated about

I can sure empathize with your friend, my bf and I care for over 20 colonies. The rescue bills over the years have taken any credit we can find, we have no money for a home (health/dental etc) for ourselves, and our daily lives completely hinge on the weather and our colonies, not to mention

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, Karen and I have both worked on this problem, I on the computer and Karen asking friends, rescuers and others for some help, mostly to no avail. The TNR group here is San Antonio Feral Cat Coalition. They do not have a shelter situation so get very little

I understand all too well. I've been having great difficulty feeling very alone in the daily commitment, let alone the financial side. Is there a paypal address that can be shared publicly (like on facebook) for donations? It might help a little if there were a 501(c)3 rescue who will allow

Yes, I have gone online (she has no computer, can't afford to buy one) and looked into the Pet Food Stamps program but since Karen has a job and is single she is not eligible. I seems like you have to be totally down and out to get any help, especially for animals. I can't get Medicaid because
