Over a Thousand Cats Need Homes in Wisconsin Right Now
The Wisconsin Humane Society is asking for help after taking in an overwhelming number of animals in just a few days. On Friday alone, 121 cats and kittens were brought in as surrenders or strays, including an emergency surrender of 47 cats and kittens from a single home.
Right now, the organization is caring for about 1,500 animals, with roughly 1,100 of them being cats. That’s around 250 more cats than this time last year, and it’s putting serious pressure on their space and resources.
“We are in high need of foster parents and adopters to help alleviate our critical space issues,” said Angela Speed, vice president of marketing and communications. “This recent surrender of 47 cats is putting a significant strain on our resources, and monetary and supply donations would be deeply appreciated and put to use immediately.”
If you’ve ever thought about fostering, now’s the time. You can watch the online orientation and fill out an application at wihumane.org/foster/apply.
Cat adoptions are currently “name your own fee” for adults, and there’s a buddy pricing deal for kittens — 50% off the second adoption fee when you take home a pair. All adoptions include spay or neuter surgery, a microchip, vaccines, a free vet exam, 30 days of pet insurance, and a starter bag of food.
To make a donation, visit wihumane.me/HelpTheCats or drop off supplies like cat litter, dry food, or kitten formula at any Wisconsin Humane Society location.
And if you’re in the Fox Cities area, don’t forget about our local Fox Valley Humane Association. They’re always looking for foster families, adopters, and donations, too, and your help goes directly toward saving animals right here at home. I personally volunteer here and have adopted my kitties from here. It’s a wonderful organization.
