As part of Blog the Change, we are excited to share the following information with you from Barn Cat Buddies (Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo’s alma mater).
Thanks to a generous grant from the McCausland Foundation, Barn Cat Buddies announces The FREE Feline FIX! The goal is to spay/neuter/rabies vaccinate approximately 600 felines this winter totally FREE to cat/kitten owners AND caretakers of managed colonies. The mission is to hugely impact the number of litters that would be surrendered to local pounds and shelters this spring and summer.
Making this an incredible offering for cat owners/caretakers is the lack of restrictions to taking advantage of this opportunity.
1. No income requirement.
2. No zip code requirement
3. No limit to the number of cats per household and
4. Open to community (feral) cats as long as a caretaker is feeding and monitoring the cat or colony.
PLEASE NOTE: This grant ONLY covers the cost of a spay or neuter, rabies vaccine and ear tip for cats in traps. The surgeries will be performed at Angels of Assisi (our Santa Kitty Toy Hop recipients). If the Assisi medical staff determines a feline needs additional medical treatment, that is the responsibility of the pet owner. To apply simply call the Barn Cat Buddies hotline at 504-344-8707 ext. 3* do not leave your message on Assisi’s line please.
Please spread the word through social media!
This is a great goal – and will make a huge difference to the lives of cats!
Wow. 600 cats and kittens is an amazing goal and I love that they can come from anywhere. Way to go getting the word out and I wish Barn Cat Buddies a tremendous success!
Thanks for blogging the change!

This is really fantastic! 600 less cats breeding should make a HUGE difference. I am proudly off to share this and I thank you for making me aware to share! 🙂
This is really awesome!
How pawsome! Our spay/neuter clinic was offering spays and neuters for $5 per cat for feral kitties. We hope lots of kitties get fixed!
This is pawsome! I hope people will take advantage of it. Our mayor gave UCFCC a $1000 grants so every cat from our town who gets spayed through them only pays $20 per cat.
That is wonderful- I wish that were offered everywhere.
This is fantastic news my friends.
