Does Maddies Fund provide grants for feral cats?
A. Maddie’s Fund does not offer direct funding for feral cat programs but our grants benefit ferals in two ways. First, because our grants will ultimately enable communities to provide an adoption guarantee for shelter animals, fewer people will abandon cats in the first place, thus reducing feral cat populations in the future. Second, with an adoption guarantee in place, more people will be inclined to rescue and tame feral cats, knowing that when the animals are adoptable they can be taken to the local shelter and guaranteed a permanent home.
