Shawano Cares About Critters

The idea of Shawano Cares About Critters came about several years ago when a group of cats near an apartment building had to be relocated for their safety. A small group of local women took on that project, and were able to trap and relocate the cats. This brought to light the issue of outdoor cats in the area, few of which are spayed or neutered. This is the niche that SCAC is attempting to fill - helping farmers or other landowners get their cats spayed or neutered so more unwanted kittens aren't brought into this world. We have partnered with other organizations such as Fox Valley Humane, Bay Area Humane, and Cats Anonymous to provide TNR (trap-neuter-return) for outdoor cats, and in 2015 812 cats were fixed! We are very proud to announce that in December 2015 we were able to complete the paperwork to become a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
