CPAW NJ SEPTEMBER MEWS:
Fall is full of Mew beginnings, reuniting with old friends … and rededicating ourselves to the
2019 Beat the Heat Challenge!
MEW BEGINNINGS: We’ve scheduled TWO trainings at Brookdale Pet Center to train area residents to help proactively find and trap outdoor cats needing help. This summer we met some new friends in Montclair, Nutley and Bloomfield who care lovingly for outdoor cats and helped get the cats on a regular feeding schedule so they could be trapped, neutered, vaccinated and returned home.
This is the recipe for success and we hope to report meowy more successes like this between now and the end of 2019 to BEAT THE HEAT next spring. Enjoy! these cuties.
OLD FURRIENDS: TNVR works! as you can see from the healthy cats you have made it possible to help along the way, including this one who is “working” right in his own backyard!
Be sure to come and talk with us at the annual Katz & Dogs Adoption Event during the Upper Montclair Sidewalk Sale on Saturday, September 21, at 12:30. They have lots of prizes and gorgeous animals to adopt….and you can learn about all things cat from CPAW NJ!
Continuing Beat the Heat…we passed a milestone but there are many more miles to go, with your help!
