Our Trap/Neuter/Return Dripping Springs (TNR DS) group is dynamite! This week, Diana, Mike, and Calene trapped 17 community cats in Dripping Springs from two locations. As they came in, Thundering Paws kept them warm, fed, and clean. Seven people drove them to and from the clinic on Friday, 12/11.

Organized by Dr. Amanda Bruce, a series of spay/neuter clinics at the new PAWS Hill Country facility made possible the altering of 86 cats. This facility, located at 2965 FM 165, is 18 miles, 25 minutes from us. We have been using another great low cost, spay/neuter clinic, Hill Country Animal League, which is 69 miles, 1 hour 22 minutes away. You can see the advantage.

People from Blanco, Wimberley, Dripping Springs, and Austin worked in this effort for the trapping, transporting, altering, vaccinating, ear tipping, recovering, and returning of these kitties.

This is the perfect time of year to do this. Cats normally begin breeding in January, and produce three to eight kittens or more a year.

We know this series of clinics last week was a tremendous success. We are hoping that this will become a semi-monthly, or even a weekly happening. TNR DS is ready!

The price for the altering and rabies vaccinating of one cat is $50. For an additional $5, we give each kitty an FVRCP vaccination which offers protection from distemper and other viruses.

This time, we had a WONDERFUL donor who paid all our clinic and vaccination expenses. Thank you, Danielle Jaussaud and Cats Angels!

With our great team, these clinics, and a concentrated effort from everyone to finance these clinics, we could alter so many Dripping Springs free-roaming cats! Please donate! If you would like to join our TNR team read about joining here!
