A cat rescue group has celebrated a purrfect day after de-sexing 35 felines on Saturday 6 June in Cranbourne West.
Meow Rescue, a not-for-profit organisation for cats and kittens in Melbourne, has been running a program aimed at people experiencing financial difficulty in the southeast where cats can be desexed, vaccinated and microchipped for $50.
“It was a great success,” Meow Rescue committee member Kelly Davidson said of the day which was held at Meow and Friends Community Vet. “Meow rescue de-sexed 27 as a part of the programme and 35 were done on the day.
“Our volunteers and carers have worked tirelessly to fund raise for this community project,” Ms Davidson said.
“Our aim is to help reduce the number of unwanted kittens and cats in our community.”
All rescued cats are cared for by the rescue group’s team of expert foster carers in their own homes.
