TNR for our feral Mama Cat to be spayed 👍Success

After a week of trap training 👍🐈 Mama Kitty Mary Jane went inside and this time the trap closed. Thank you Jesus 🙏 This mama is DONE. Off to be #spayandneuter and on to a great new future as a #tnrcat

She will be returned to her #catcolony and live out her life as a cat. Not a kitten machine or deal with heat cycles that call tom cats to harass her and her family. She was the last of the original 5 feral family that showed up last year to get trapped.

Please see our trap training shorts for more cat colony tips in #TNR I hope they can help someone who felt like I did when I started on this journey and felt like I couldn't do it.

I had too for HER. My beautiful Mary Jane who was such a good mama the first litter, then had such a hard time the 2nd litter. She deserves so much. She has had a hard life.It had since gotten better. One bad day for her surgery and vaccines and then all the time to live the rest of her life. ❤

... Read moreTrap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a humane and effective approach to manage feral cat populations while ensuring their well-being. By spaying Mama Kitty Mary Jane, she is freed from the stress of heat cycles and unwanted litters. This not only enhances her quality of life but also contributes to the stability of her cat colony. TNR efforts reduce the number of homeless kittens, which is vital for community cat management. It creates a healthier environment where cats can thrive, and their presence becomes less of an issue for residents. Moreover, educating the public on the importance of TNR fosters compassion and involvement in local animal welfare initiatives. By sharing success stories like that of Mary Jane, we inspire others to participate in TNR programs. Getting involved can range from volunteering at local shelters to starting your own TNR initiative in your area. If you encounter feral cats, consider contacting a local TNR group for assistance. Remember, each successful spay and neuter contributes to a brighter future for felines and communities alike. Together, we can make a difference!

They grow up so fast. 🧡
My kitten Olive is already six months old and getting spayed today. I am so nervous. It’s hard leaving them at the vet all day. I am looking forward to her coming back home to me. 🧡 #calicocat #spayandneuteryourpets #catsoflemon8

An image titled 'Sun Phases for Solar Magic' showing magical timing from dawn to dusk. It lists Dawn for new beginnings, Noon for power, Sunset for release, and Midnight for transformation, set against a vibrant sunrise/sunset sky.
A table detailing correspondences for solar magic, including Element (Fire), Planet (The Sun), Colors (Gold, yellow, orange), and Herbs (Sunflower, chamomile, calendula, St. John's Wort).
A continuation of the table from the previous image, listing correspondences such as Animals (Rooster, lion, eagle, phoenix), Deities (Ra, Helios, Apollo, Amaterasu, Sol), Tarot Card (The Sun), and Tarot Suit (Wands).

The 🌝Moon gets a lot of airtime in witchcraft. 🌛But it's not the only celestial force worth your attention. The Sun is just as important☀️. And, with the longest days of the year fast approaching, it's the perfect time to tap into solar magic.🌞🌞 For millennia, people have looked to the Sun

Everyone say hello to Scarlett! She is the newest member of our family! We won't officially get her until after she's spayed, but we're SO EXCITED! Our other fur baby, Ginny, already fell in love with her! We can't wait until she finally gets to come home! 🥰

I’ve rescued 21 kittens. I’ve been raising them, loving them, and trying to find them forever homes — but it’s taking time. They’re healthy and happy now, but they’re getting to the age where they urgently need to be spayed and neutered. I can’t do it all alone anymore. If you want to help support
