Program Services
| Description | Grants | Expenses |
|---|---|---|
| In 2024 we rescued and adopted out 108 cats, and trap-neuter-released approximately 600 feral cats in St. Croix through partner clinics. We continued and expanded our Food for Ferals program to distribute cat food to people around the island who feed community cats but didn't have money to buy cat food, primarily the group feeding cats at the largest colony on island. We began working on clearing our property for The St. Croix Cat Sanctuary but ran into issues with the location, so we are currently trying to sell that property in order to purchase a more suitable and safe property. | $33,523 | $67,240 |
