It really isn’t as expensive to feed them as you’d think.

What hurts are the vet bills - - - shots, spays/neuters, ect. LOL! Fortunately, our veterinarian is good about giving us breaks wherever he can because he appreciates our taking in the strays that show up at the farm. These are cats who would otherwise have been taken to the pound, or who would have starved or died by other means.

We’re suckers for those furry faces, and fortunate we have the room for them and the means to care for them.
BUT, we hope people will STOP dumping their cats. It’s not that we have PLENTY already. It’s just so cruel to dump them in the first place.

Lol. Not a chance. The word is probably out that you guys are the kind-hearted suckers. I'm the same way, though. We have four cats and if we come a across a stray I take it to the vet to get shots, spay/neuter, etc. Then we'll take it to the no-kill shelter that we volunteer at to get adopted out. That way it's no cost to the shelter.
