Even though I’ve recently lost “Bitey,” the supply of semi-friendly farm cats is hardly depleted around here. And even though there is certainly an ecosystem full of varmints for the cats to gnaw upon (rodents, snakes and birds), they are always looking for food. And since I know the value of keeping on good terms with the local anti-vermin patrol, I always keep some cat food ready at hand to dole out to ’em.
(note: the white cat in this photo is *not* Bitey, but one of her half-brothers. When I pulled in the garage after coming home from the vet, as I was pulling Bitey’s cardboard box out of the car, this near-perfect clone came dashing out of the weeds and prit near gave me a heart attack.)
However, cat food, oddly, is not something that the government hands out for free. Cat food costs money. So if you’d like to help the cause – which also will have to include getting them vaccinated and fixed, otherwise I’ll be swamped with an army of sick kitties – please go here and donate.
For just pennies a day you can feed the cute little kitties. Only you can prevent them from starving. Only a monster wouldn’t help keep the kitties from starving. You’re not a monster… are you???

Scott,
Am I correct in thinking you reside in Utah? If so, give these guys a look-see:

If you’re not in Utah, Google “No More Homeless Pets.” This organization has branches all over the US. They are dedicated to low-cost spay and neutering. They also receive donations of pet food from companies like Iams and Science Diet. Their goal is to help feral colonies and the people who take care of them.
We’ve had lots of luck with No More Homeless Pets helping us with our feral colony.
