MISSOULA — If you can’t bring a furry friend home forever but want to support a shelter kitten, Animeals is offering a sponsorship program.
It costs $100 to sponsor a cat with the money going toward vaccinations, spaying or neutering, de-worming, and prepping kittens for adoption. You will also get to give the kitten a name.
While 111 cats have been sponsored this year, many foster cats at Animeals are still in need of support.
"Our big mission is to help our community. We're here to help the ones that can't help themselves," shelter manager Josie Rodgers told MTN. "We take on significant medical cases. Veterinary care is the biggest bill we face aside from overhead."
Kitten sponsorship is open year-round.
"Anytime anyone wants to sponsor a cat, it helps allow us to continue doing what we're trying to do, which is get cats off the streets and into homes," said Rodgers.
