For the holidays, we are asking you to adopt a community cat caretaker to thank them for their year round work.

Barbara is an 80-year-pld caretaker who has been taking care of Oakland cats for 10+ years. The colony started when someone dumped their friendly cats outside hear home and they started reproducing. Now there are about 20-25 cats in the colony with the majority of them being spayed or neutered. Barbara worked for the county as a clerk to help bail people out of jail. Now she is retired and uses her social security to care for her ferals. She feeds them twice a day and is grateful for any help.The cats eat wet food and dry food.

We’d like to celebrate their efforts to help community cats by sending some Santa Claws magic their way.

• gift cards
• adopt the entire colony for one month (food, treats, supplies)
• adopt the colony with a monthly donation
• sponsor a TNVR for an Oakland cat
