“Supplies for Sweethearts” Giving Tree
 Come in to the shelter and make a donation for our Valentine’s giving tree. We’re raising funds for medical supplies
for all of our sweetheart shelter cats. Choose an “ornament” from the basket with your donation amount, write a Valentine’s message
on the back for a special person or kitty, and we’ll hang your ornament on the tree and post your message on our website.
*Each donor also will be entered into a drawing for a basket full of cat-themed goodies!*

Beat the Heat!
 |
| To help reduce the number of homeless cats, Fort Collins Cat Rescue & Spay/Neuter Clinic is offering a “Beat the Heat” promotion made possible by a grant from PetSmart Charities®. During the entire month of February, FCCRSNC will spay up to 200 female cats for a special rate of $20.
This special rate is available to all residents of Colorado and Wyoming. Cat parents who wish to take advantage of this offer should mention the “Beat the Heat” promotion when they call to schedule their appointment, (970) 484-1861. In 2011, there were 890 unwanted cats euthanized in Larimer County. A female cat can have up to three litters a year, with an average of four kittens per litter, so spaying even one cat can have a significant impact on the number of unwanted kittens. With a goal of spaying 200 cats during this "Beat the Heat" promotion, FCCRSNC could potentially prevent 2,400 births. |

Vaccine Clinic Extremely Busy
| Our vaccine clinics have been extremely busy as of late which is great because it
means many community members are benefiting from this much needed service that our organization is able to offer. However, it has made it so that many of
our clients at our vaccine clinics are having to wait longer than we would like to have their pets seen. Please know that we are working hard to improve the
flow of our vaccine clinics so that we can help as many people as possible in a timely fashion. If you have access to a printer please print and fill out this
Vaccine Sheet ahead of time and bring it with you. Thank you for being a responsible
pet owner! |
