Sometimes it Takes a Village . . .


Fourteen kittens were the focus last Thursday, a chaotic, fun, crazy day where volunteers, staff and local vets pulled together to get a big group of kittens neutered, vaccinated and ready for adoption. 

Many thanks to the kitten foster volunteers who brought their kittens to the adoption center; to volunteer Doris, who transported eight homeless kittens from the Salinas Shelter; to Craig for transporting foster kittens from the AFRP Adoption Center to the meeting spot at the Walmart parking lot; to Mia for transporting kittens and helping process them at the AFRP Adoption Center; to Ingrid for efficient planning and numerous phone calls; and to board member Kelly for transporting the whole group of kittens up to Santa Cruz and back! (And for serving as a vet tech while the neuter procedures were being performed!)

An extra big thank-you goes to Mt. Madonna Mobile Vet Clinic who graciously cleared their schedule Thursday morning and gave AFRP significantly reduced fees for the spay/neuter procedures. 

If you are interested in helping homeless kittens, please consider becoming an AFRP Foster Volunteer. Can't volunteer but still want to help? Donating to our Feline Family Fund can save the lives of cats and kittens that need your help.
