–North County Paws Cause, a local nonprofit organization made entirely of volunteers, aims to improve the welfare of both feral and domesticated cats in the community through spay and neuter programs, fostering, and adoption. There are currently 107 cats and kittens in foster homes, with around 30 cats usually in the system, and the NCPC volunteers are passionate about finding forever homes for these cats.
“Unfixed, unwanted cats in our community become a problem for every one real quick. No one likes unhealthy or sick cats messing up their garden or fighting with their own pet cats. By helping us control these feral populations in our community, and helping us rehabilitate kittens born outside into nice house cats, community members are also making life nicer for all of us who live here, people and animals alike,” said Liz Gillingham, a NCPC foster.
