This year, we are proud to say that FixNation – your FixNation – has been named the Best in our category – stray cat (spay-neuter) …

FixNation is Deeded the Plot to Toto’s Final Resting Place in Hollywood Forever Cemetery
 
Toto from The Wizard of Oz is one of the most well-known and beloved canine movie stars of all time. Say the word Toto to almost anyone in the world and they immediately know who you are talking about.
As a film, The Wizard of Oz was epic when it was released back in 1939. It was witness to the launch of Technicolor, it won several Academy Awards, and to this day it’s one of the biggest films …

Great article from the Washington Post: “Fight Over Ferals Boils Down to One Question: Do Alley Cats Live a Good Life?” We think the answer is a resounding YES, especially after they are fixed.

The latest from Vox Felina, one of our favorite blogs, on the misrepresentation and false assertions being trumpeted in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s feral cat management plan for the Florida Keys: “Cat Management Plan Reads Like Fiction.”
 

There was a great piece that aired last week on NBC Nightly News about feral cat caretaking. The piece educated about feral cats and showed how trap-neuter-return is the only humane solution to helping the cats within our communities. Very well done. Bravo NBC!

December Vaccine Clinic Cancelled
We apologize for any inconvenience and will share updated schedules and details for 2012 vaccine clinics as it becomes available.

Why should you come to FixNation’s vaccine clinics instead of the ones held elsewhere? Because all of the money raised goes directly to providing free spay/neuter for homeless stray and feral cats. So it’s win-win all around — it’s good for Fido and Fifi to stay up on their shots, it benefits the homeless cats in LA, it’s good for the community and last but not least, it’s …

The annual Day of the Dead celebration is an ancient, spiritual tradition that dates back thousands of years to Aztec times. Celebrated in Mexico and widely throughout the Hispanic community, Dia De Los Muertos honors the memories of our ancestors and the beloved souls of friends and family who have passed. It is a time when the veil is lifted between the living and the dead, and the two realms come together in a festive tribute to life, death and rebirth.
The largest celebration in the nation is the event at …

On August 2, 2010, FixNation hit a major milestone in our history by fixing our 50,000th cat! Our numbers reflect the combined efforts of FixNation since our beginning in 2007, plus includes the cats spayed and neutered through our sister program, Best Friends Catnippers.
Give thought for one minute on how many future homeless cats we have collectively prevented by spaying and neutering this many. It’s mind-boggling! And yet we still have much more to do…
This amazing achievement is a result of the combined effort of …
