Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
LITTLE SHELTER ASSISTS OTHER SHELTERS BY TAKING IN SOME OF THEIR ANIMALS, THEREBY ALLOWING THEM TO RESCUE MORE HOMELESS AND UNWANTED ANIMALS. LITTLE SHELTER MAKES SURE THAT THE ANIMALS BASIC NEEDS ARE MET. EACH ANIMAL RECEIVES MEDICAL AND BEHAVIORAL EVALUATIONS, A WARM, SAFE PLACE TO STAY, AND PLENTY OF NUTRITIOUS FOOD AND WATER. THE ANIMALS ALSO RECEIVE PERSONALIZED ATTENTION. THEY ARE WALKED FREQUENTLY THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND HAVE TIME TO PLAY WITH OUR STAFF, VOLUNTEERS AND OTHER ANIMALS.
FERAL CATS ARE FREE-ROAMING CATS THAT ARE UNTAMED AND UNSUITABLE FOR ADOPTION. IF LEFT ALONE, THEY KEEP REPRODUCING AND CAN BECOME A NEIGHBORHOOD NUISANCE PROMPTING WELL-MEANING COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO CALL ANIMAL CONTROL TO TAKE CARE OF THEM. HOWEVER, WHEN THOSE CATS ARE REMOVED AND KILLED, NEW CATS SIMPLY MOVE IN TO TAKE OVER THE TERRITORY.IN THE PROCESS OF TRAP-NEUTER-RETURN THE CAT IS HUMANELY TRAPPED, THEN TRANSPORTED TO A VET WHERE IT IS SPAYED OR NEUTERED, EAR TIPPED AND RABIES VACCINATED. THE CAT IS THEN RELEASED BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL OUTDOOR LOCATION AND MANAGED BY A CAREGIVER WHO WILL MANAGE THE COLONY AND MAINTAIN A CLEAN ENVIRONMENT THROUGH CONTROLLED FEEDING.LITTLE SHELTERS FERAL CAT INITIATIVE HELPS PERMANENTLY REDUCE THE COLONY SIZE THROUGH ATTRITION, REDUCES NUISANCE BEHAVIORS SUCH AS MALE SPRAYING AND FIGHTING AND LOWERS THE NUMBER OF CATS AND KITTENS BROUGHT TO OVERBURDENED SHELTERS, WHICH RESULTS IN REDUCED COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH HOUSING AND EUTHANASIA. THE COST OF THE FERAL CAT INITIATIVE IS COVERED IN FULL BY LITTLE SHELTER.
