First Ladies are taking this show on the Road!!!
Tax deductible
It is time for the Firat Ladies to HIT THE ROAD! Currently we spay and neuter over 1000 cats per year in Southeast Hillsborough County. This number could be as large as we can find homes to place the cats in but we are limited in our adoption opportunities. No more! Thanks to the generosity of the Cooleys we are MOBILE! We have a chance to partner with Hugo Coffee who already does so many good works and create a two room bus that functions as a small mobile coffee truck in the back and adoption center in the front! Imagine being able to set up at a Farmers Market with kittens for adoption? Attend q horse show with our barn cats and promote our Street Strife to Farm Life program using unwanted street cats as natural pest control? One of our best programs is suffering from a "failure to launch! Senior Cats for Senior Laps pairs Florida's abundant retiree population with Senior Cats. We provide for them should their owner become unable to through sickness or death and we take them to annual vet visit. It is the best program going for Florida's Seniors but many in Assisted Living don't drive. What if we visited a different Assisted Living facility each month? We do not want to adopt our cats in brick and mortar facilities and they're tied up by other organizations. We don't want the staffing concerns, insurance, licensing and rent on a Cat Cafe.
We are so excited! But we need funds! The bus has been gutted inside and completely gone through mechanically to the tune of $5000 invested by the current owner. This is a good start but we habe floors and paint and a wrap and windows to install. Then we have tax, tag, title and insurance. We have already scored the kennels we need but will need other niggling things here ir there to take our little rescue to the next level. Will you join us???
