Our Mission To control and stabilise the feral cat population in the Nelson Mandela Metropole and surrounding areas, through identifying feral colonies and sterilisation of the ferals. To promote the cat's health and welfare, through implementing feeding programmes, monitoring, rehabilitating feral cats when necessary, along with treating ill and sick ferals whenever possible. Our secondary objective is to educate the public of the importance of sterilisations and the advantages of feral cats. Sterilisation, specifically the Tip, Neuter, Return method (used) by Cat Care, encompasses trapping of adult feral cats, transporting them to selected veterinary surgeons, who neuter and treat the adult feline, then the return to its colony after recovery. Experience has shown that feral cat colonies are highly effective in the control of vermin like rats, mice, cockroaches, even snakes. However, if they are allowed to breed uncontrolled, a situation soon arises where there is insufficient food to sustain the colony, in-breeding occurs and along with it all the resultant problems, e.g. genetic deformities, starvation, fighting, etc. Feeding programmes are put into place by the fieldworkers involved with Cat Care, as well as community volunteers. Currently, Cat Care feeds approximately 388 feral cats, and sterilizes between 20 to 30 a month. Local factories, holiday resorts, nature reserves, secular offices, as well as residential areas, have all benefited from Cat Cares work. Where necessary, Cat Care finds foster homes for kittens born to feral mothers, tames them, and then eventually finds good permanent homes for them. We are often called in to bottle feed orphaned kittens who are still too young to eat on their own. These kittens are then also eventually rehomed. Cat Care relies solely on the funds gathered during an annual street collection, several stalls and car boot sales, tea rooms at cat shows, collection tins held at certain shops, membership fees along with their and public donations, raffles kindly offered through several veterinary clinics. We receive no government assistance, but we do receive discounted rates from selected supportive private veterinarians. We do not occupy any office premises and rely on members/volunteers for support and daily operation.
