Organizations Filed Purposes:
TO REDUCE THE OVERPOPULATION OF CATS IN THE SAN ANTONIO AREA THROUGH PUBLIC EDUCATION, RESCUE, TRAP-NEUTER-RETURN (TNR), AND EMPOWERING THE COMMUNITY TO CARE FOR OUTSIDE CATS.
OUR COMMUNITY CAT ADOPTION PROGRAM IS A HOME-BASED FOSTER PROGRAM THAT RESCUES YOUNG KITTENS AND FRIENDLY STRAYS FROM TRAPPING PROJECTS AND REQUESTS FROM THE PUBLIC. WE PARTNER WITH PETCO AND PETSMART AND HAVE OUR CATS IN EIGHT OF THEIR ADOPTION CENTERS AROUND THE CITY. THEY ARE ALSO ADVERTISED ON OUR WEBSITE AND ON PETFINDER. BEFORE ADOPTION, THE CATS ARE SPAYED OR NEUTERED, VACCINATED AND HAVE ANY MEDICAL NEEDS TAKEN CARE OF. IN 2020, WE ADOPTED OUT 1,302 CATS AND TRANSFERRED 95 OTHERS TO OTHER ORGANIZATIONS TO PLACE FOR ADOPTION. WE HAVE APPROXIMATELY 70 FOSTERS.
TNR SUBSIDY PROGRAM - SAFCC SUBSIDIZES THE COST OF SPAY/NEUTER FOR THREE CLINICS SO THE PUBLIC ONLY PAYS 20 TO GET AN OUTSIDE CAT SPAYED/NEUTERED AND VACCINATED. OUR PARTNER CLINICS ARE THE SAN ANTONIO HUMANE SOCIETY, BROOKS SPAY/NEUTER CLINIC AND THE ANIMAL DEFENSE LEAGUE. LAST YEAR DUE TO COVID CLOSURES, WE DEVELOPED RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER CLINICS AND VETS IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TNR. FEES WERE HIGHER WITH THESE OTHER GROUPS, SO OUR EXPENSES WERE MUCH HIGHER THAN LAST YEAR. HOWEVER, DUE TO THE EFFORTS OF OUR TRAPPER TEAM, WE WERE ALSO ABLE TO TNR MORE CATS. IN 2020, WE FUNDED THE SPAY/NEUTER OF 5,755 CATS.
THE TRAPPER TEAM IS A GROUP OF 10-15 EXPERIENCED TRAPPERS WHO TRAP CATS FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT PHYSICALLY TRAP,USUALLY THE ELDERLY AND DISABLED. IN SOME CASES, BUSINESSES AND PRIVATE CITIZENS OFFER TO PAY TO HAVE CATS TNRED. THESE TRAPPERS ARE PAID 20 PER CAT TO TRAP, TAKE TO A CLINIC FOR SPAY/NEUTER, RECOVER THE CAT AND RETURN IT IN GOOD CONDITION TO THE PLACE WHERE IT WAS TRAPPED. THIS IS NORMALLY A 2-3 DAY PROCESS, BUT IT CAN BE LONGER. IN 2020, OUR TRAPPER TEAM TRAPPED 4,222 CATS THAT WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE NOT BEEN SPAYED OR NEUTERED.
