FCCO helps more than 8,000 cats each year. Each single cat matters. To Kellie, finally getting Willow spayed meant the world to her - and meant that Willow could finally stop breeding. Kellie shared her story:
Willow was spayed this past March. She’s doing amazing now. She was hard to trap, but we didn’t give up and a drop trap finally worked. After her spay, FCCO let us know she might have kittens somewhere, so we released her quickly and watched closely. We eventually spotted the kittens, trapped them two weeks later, and socialized them for adoption through FCCO’s Kitten Caboose program.
After we trapped the kittens, Willow cried for a couple of days, but before long she reconnected with her old crew, a trio of bonded cats from her first litter we noticed, the group that started this whole journey for us. They were the first three we brought to FCCO. Willow is still wary and lets us know with a hiss and growl. She doesn’t come running for treats like the others, but with time, patience, and treats, I might win her over. For now, she’s happy watching from a safe distance. We don’t know how many litters she had before, which is why it feels so good to know her kitten-raising days are over.
