If you have a dog or cat needing one of the Hills Prescription Diets, either wet or canned, email Barbarah@thecatpeople.org. One of our members recently lost her animal and has donated a few unopened bags as well as a few cases of can food. We would be happy to pass it on to our animal loving friends.
Barn Cats
Do you have a rodent problem in your barn, stable, greenhouse or winery? The Cat People have cats who would rather be independent than lap cats. These cats will mouse in exchange for room and board. They are from six months to 6 years old. All have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated and are in good health. The cats will be delivered and need to be in a secure area for two weeks to a month and then released. Hands on guidance will be given.
