Goals
- To assist 50 cats to be spayed & neutered.
Overview
The cat population in Halifax Regional Municipality is considered by many to be out-of-control. Seniors on a small pension and families with low income are most often not able to afford to take their pet for veterinary care. Often these are pets who get lost or are discarded to the outdoors and contribute to the growing feral cat population. The goal of this great idea is to target cats who would never see a veterinarian due to the economic situation of its owner.
Community Benefit
Spay and neuter is considered the most humane method of controlling the ballooning cat population. It has been proven effective right across North America. All the animal shelters here are full all of the time, cat rescue groups have limited resources and there is a real need for a program like this in Halifax.
