We have been busy the last few months picking up feral cats and taking them to SPOT to get them spayed or neutered. We feel that spaying and neutering the animals in Owen County should be a major priority of The Sanctuary. Not only will spaying and neutering improve the lives of the animals who are being fixed, it will prevent hundreds of unwanted animals from populating local humane shelters or spreading disease in the wild.
Along the way of our feral cat spay and neuter mission, existing feral kittens have been picked up and brought to The Sanctuary. Pam recently brought two kittens home to be tamed, vet checked, neutered, and adopted out. Thanks to Dude Bandy (gray kitten) and Kevin, Marla, and Anna Rademachir (black kitten), Sherlock and Barney were taken off of the street and placed into loving homes.
We appreciate the donations that we receive. While a grant from Spay Neuter Services of Indiana has covered the cost of spaying and neutering, the medical expenses to ensure that each cat is healthy and ready to be returned to the wild or adopted out have not been covered. Depending on the condition of the animal, vet costs can run in the hundreds of dollars.
We are currently looking for good homes for kittens! Please contact Pam (812)821-0826 if you or someone you know is willing to adopt a kitten!
Peace from The Sanctuary at Browning Farms!
Pam and Barb Browning
Treats provide the opportunity for important one-on-one time with your cat and can go a long way toward strengthening your bond. Giving Fluffy treats before you leave for work and when you return at night can provide a predictable routine that many cats find comforting. If you understand a treat’s ingredients panel and what your cat’s needs are, you can provide Healthy cat treats for your cat that won’t contribute to obesity, diabetes, or other health problems.
