Celebrating Global Cat Day: Join the Movement to Protect Cats
Global Cat Day and National Feral Cat Day: A Call to Action
Every year, October 16 stands as a significant day for cat lovers around the world, marking both Global Cat Day and National Feral Cat Day. These observances, championed by Alley Cat Allies, serve as crucial reminders of our responsibility to safeguard the lives of cats and kittens.
The Mission of Alley Cat Allies
Alley Cat Allies is at the forefront of the movement to protect cats, encouraging individuals everywhere to take meaningful actions to benefit cats in their communities. According to Coryn Julien, a program communications officer, these days are not just about awareness but also about grassroots involvement. "You can be an advocate for cats. If you don't believe in killing cats, you're already an advocate," she emphasizes.
Understanding Community Cats
The essence of Global Cat Day lies in the profound understanding that Cats Are Community™. This assertion captures the reality that cats have coexisted with humans for centuries, holding an intrinsic value and a rightful place alongside us. Recognizing this truth allows us to appreciate the roles cats play in our lives and the importance of their protection.
Taking Action on National Feral Cat Day
National Feral Cat Day serves as a powerful call to action. It encourages people to implement life-saving changes for cats and to share their initiatives on social media, inspiring others to join the cause. Alley Cat Allies provides a wealth of resources and ideas to assist individuals and communities in their efforts to celebrate this day meaningfully.
Spay and Neuter Clinics: A Lifesaving Initiative
This year, Alley Cat Allies is hosting a spay and neuter clinic in honor of Global Cat Day and National Feral Cat Day. The clinic aims to provide essential services for 200 community cats, collaborating with local organizations to ensure they receive veterinary care, vaccinations, microchipping, and more. Moreover, caregivers will be supported with supplies to further assist in caring for these cats.
