This is great momentum for our call out for volunteers - are you interested in helping to take cats to the ACL to have them spayed and neutered, and return them to their colony? Will you help us feed and water stray cats? We're preparing a volunteer training and are looking for interested people who have a little bit of time and a lot of love for strays in our community.

Please e-mail us if you can help and would like to attend a volunteer training.

We raised $365 today!

Thanks to everyone who came out today to support Sundaes for Strays. We made a lot of new friends and encouraged a lot of new volunteers to support C.A.T.S. for Forest Park, and made $365 for our Colony Care Fund in the process. We appreciate your support!

It's time for ICE CREAM! Support our strays!

ACL Receives Pet Smart Grant to Support TNR Services for Forest Park!

This is AMAZING news! The Animal Care League has received a large grant ($10,000) solely to support the trap-neuter-return services provided by C.A.T.S. for Forest Park! PetSmart supports spay/neuter surgeries and the purchase of traps to serve and return 300 cats in Forest Park!

What tremendous momentum for our efforts! With the enthusiasm and work that we have established, the ACL was able to show that C.A.T.S. for Forest Park is making a difference for strays in our community. Now we can build and grow our efforts, with increased volunteer support, and additional fundraising to provide the ancillary services to cats that we know are so valuable (FeLV testing, FIV testing, food, blankets/shelter, kitten fostering supplies, etc.).

Join us on August 29 at Sundaes for Strays to find out more, and how you can get involved!

Thank you Animal Care League!

Great News!

Just wanted you to know that we raised $310 from our Blackhawks Jersey Fundraiser last month! Thanks to everyone who purchased raffle tickets - we did really well!

We still need your help, because the need is great, with the cost of FIV and FeLV testing, food, and kitten care supplies. See you on August 29 at Sundaes for Strays!
