Homeless No More Cat Rescue that is the group's name, Bigger the name than the group but one has to start someplace. Right now we've seven fosters.
We thrive on kitties being adopted to good homes
or similar happy ocassions.
We are not a shelter, just a group of two rescuers, my husband and I. We do the rescuing, vetting, sheltering at our home(that gets full fast) and adopting out.
We're involved in TNR too, in fact that is how our cat work started six years ago. There's a feral colony, some not feral but strays and neighborhood cats at the back of my husbands former business. They tell me that ever sonce anybody remembers there were cats there, so it ebbed and flowed until we trapped and neutered them all, some we got to adopt out and others became our housecats. However the majority lived their lives at the colony. When we took over there were 16 regulars and 4 'onandoffs' cats plus two litters, fast forward two years when the last litter was born there and today only four cats remain. The patriarch died last year and the oldest queen is still there, as is one of her daughters. Both are true ferals, there is a friendly stray we TNRed this year and another younger feral queen.
If we had room we'd have removed them long time ago as numbers are low but as of yet they live in Juju Colony. Juju's the older queen sister, she was shot at the colony in 06', ever since it has been Juju's Colony in her memory.
