What's the Feral & Stray Foundation
« Reply #1 on: November 03, 2013, 17:08:11 PM »
Feral & Stray Foundation is dedicated to helping stray, feral and unwanted cats in the UK...

The Feral & Stray Foundation was set up to:

  • Promote responsible pet ownership - the importance of neutering and microchipping pets.
  • Encourage people to save a life and adopt from a shelter. If we breed and buy, stray and unwanted animals will continue to die..
  • Develop a nationwide feral register. The register is an ideal way to place a single, pair, or small family of neutered feral cats into farms, equestrian centres and smallholdings. Used by local rescue organisations, the register would save the lives of feral cats and kittens, and be a huge benefit to the land owner in controlling pests safely.
  • Develop neutering clinics using volunteer vets and nurses. Raise funds to pay for neutering & microchipping of stray, feral and unwanted cats.  Assist with neutering for people on government benefits to ensure a reduction in breeding.
  • Lobby the government to make neutering and microchipping law in the UK. Support organisations in policing unregistered breeding of animals.
  • Encourage veterinary practices nationally to offer discounted neutering and chipping rates  or run free or low-cost neutering clinics..
