It's the last day of October, Halloween, and you know what would be truly scary? If you didn't trap your feral, community cat(s) and bring them to our Free Feral Day on Wednesday to get fixed, FREE! 👻👀

Our Free Feral Spay & Neuter Day's are for feral, community cats of El Dorado County. We are booking 75 spots but are allowing walk-ins (to offset the amount of appointments that were not able to trap their cats) until those 75 spots are indeed filled. 🐾

This program is funded solely by sponsorships & donations. Keeping this community resource available depends on people like you. Every donation helps us continue offering this vital service and ensures it remains here for the animals and community members who need it.

You can donate to this fund to keep it as an available community resource by following the link here 👇
🔗https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/donation-form/b49be15e-084d-4b94-b2c5-213bc9952bba
**You can select "Other" from the fee selection & enter "0" to avoid paying additional fees**

If you do not get an official appointment, you still have the chance to walk-in with your trapped feral cat, & could get a spay/neuter slot that day until we have filled those 75 spots.

Those with appointments should arrive with their feral cat between 7 & 10am, walk-ins hoping to get a spot should arrive at 9:45am, Wednesday, November 4th.
*Walk-ins are not guaranteed to get a spot.

All cats will receive a spay/neuter, rabies vaccination and a mandatory ear notch.

Flashback Friday: Glow up Addition

Just look at this incredible transformation! 🤯

When Carlito first came to us, he was covered head to toe in ringworm. This poor guy had a long road ahead of him, but after MONTHS of treatment, look at him now! 😍

Not only has Carlito made it through all that treatment, but he has blossomed into the handsomest, fluffiest boy EVER. Just look at that glow-up! ✨

Now that he’s clear of that annoying fungus, this handsome floof has found a family to call his own! After everything he’s been through, we couldn’t be happier that he’ll be spending his days being spoiled, loved, and admired for the gorgeous boy he is 💕

Congratulations, Carlito! We hope your new life is full of cozy naps, endless cuddles, and all the love a fluffy king could ever want. 👑

💜 Piggy came to Animal Outreach after being found alone out in Somerset w**e country, hiding in a woodpile. He was dirty, sick, injured, and in desperate need of help. He was battling calicivirus and had a severely broken back leg. We knew he needed help right away, so we got him assessed which included xrays, and then he was rushed into surgery right after, where his injured leg had to be amputated.

But Piggy had something special about him from the very beginning. Despite everything he was going through, he was the sweetest, most affectionate little guy who just wanted love and attention. 🥹

With medical care, time, and lots of love, Piggy began to heal. He showed us that losing a leg doesn't mean losing the ability to live a happy, full life. He just needed someone to give him that chance.

And guess what? Piggy has officially been cleared medically AND ADOPTED! 🏡

His story is a reminder of why we do what we do. Sometimes, the cats who need us most are the ones who just need someone willing to say yes, even when their road to recovery looks a little different.

We are so happy Piggy got his second chance, and we can't wait for him to enjoy a lifetime of love with his new family. 💚

These two cuties have gone to a wonderful Foster-to-Adopt home! We were honestly starting to wonder how Coley and Sonya were still waiting for a family of their own. These two have been through so much, and all they want is what every kitten deserves: a home where they’re loved, cherished, and never have to wonder where they belong. They are truly magical, some of the friendliest kittens you will ever meet 🥹

💚 Coley is a goofy, incredibly loving little guy with some neurological deficits believed to be the result of trauma he experienced before coming to us. He has a permanent head tilt, can be a little wobbly, and is deaf, but none of that stops him from being a happy, affectionate kitten who absolutely LOVES people!

💜 His sister Sonya is just as amazing. She’s confident, playful, beautiful, and has a heart of gold. She came frighteningly close to losing her life after developing aspiration pneumonia, but thanks to quick care, oxygen, and antibiotics, she made a full recovery. Today, you would never know how sick she once was!
And the bond between these two? It’s one of the sweetest we’ve ever seen. Sonya is especially protective of her brother. If Coley cries out from somewhere in the house, she immediately runs to find him and make sure he’s okay. They absolutely adore each other, and they must find a home together.

Despite their medical histories, these two are just kittens living their best lives! They eat, play, use the litter box, explore, and soak up all the love they can get. Coley just needs a little extra consideration to keep him safe from high places where he could lose his balance.
