Contest Winner: I wouldn’t have it any other way

Congratulations to Krista Lopez who won a free outdoor shelter for their colony cats and a bottle of Feral Flower Essence from FixNation board member Jackson Galaxy's Spirit Essences line through FixNation’s National Feral Cat Day story competition! My story isn't particularly funny or extraordinary. I've always loved animals. My relationship with FixNation started about one year ago, when a momma cat left her two babies in our side yard. I talked to our local animal control but they were only going to put the kittens to sleep. I couldn't let that happen, so I asked around and found out [...]

Contest Winner: Mama Lucy and her kittens

Congratulations to Alexandra Pereira who won a free outdoor shelter for their colony cats and a bottle of Feral Flower Essence from FixNation board member Jackson Galaxy's Spirit Essences line through FixNation’s National Feral Cat Day story competition! In July of this year four kittens were born to a cat who took residence in a nook between my house and the neighbors. I discovered these cats one sunny afternoon and fell for them! They were cute and cheerful. They took in the sun as a group, laying out and taking long summer naps. The owner of the place I rent came over [...]

Contest Winner: Billie, Tabitha and Nigel

Congratulations to Kimberlie Hamilton who won a free outdoor shelter for their colony cats and a bottle of Feral Flower Essence from FixNation board member Jackson Galaxy's Spirit Essences line through FixNation’s National Feral Cat Day story competition! I had only a vague idea of what TNR (trap-neuter-return) was until early last year, when a black feral cat named Billie gave birth to kittens in my neighbor Heather’s back garden. We were determined to get the mom cat and her two surviving kittens, Tabitha and Nigel, spayed and neutered as soon as they were old enough. I attended the FixNation training [...]

Contest Winner: Jingles’ Legacy

Congratulations to Kathy Santiago who won a free outdoor shelter for their colony cats and a bottle of Feral Flower Essence from FixNation board member Jackson Galaxy's Spirit Essences line through FixNation’s National Feral Cat Day story competition! I have had a cat all of my life. The very first cat I found in my garage in my dad’s tool shed. I ran and told my mom that there is a cat in there and is dad gonna get mad? She went to look and much to her surprise it was a female cat and she was pregnant. Every day [...]

Contest Winner: I got me a guard cat

Congratulations to Tim Bounthoch who won a free outdoor shelter for their colony cats and a bottle of Feral Flower Essence from FixNation board member Jackson Galaxy's Spirit Essences line through FixNation’s National Feral Cat Day story competition! I have an orange tabby colony cat name Tiger that roamed in my community and no one cared about him and the other cats.  But one day we met and felt in love at first sight even though he was skinny and kind of ugly (like an ugly duckling! lol) but looks don't count so I slowly tried to get close to him everyday [...]

Contest Winner: I’m a trap and release kinda cat lady

Congratulations to Jenna Allen who won a free outdoor shelter for their colony cats and a bottle of Feral Flower Essence from FixNation board member Jackson Galaxy's Spirit Essences line through FixNation’s National Feral Cat Day story competition! My story begins 5 years ago when we bought our house. There was an above ground pool and rotting deck in the backyard and a pregnant cat was living under the house. She soon gave birth to a litter of three kittens. I found about FixNation shortly after that and went about trapping the momma and her kittens. By the time I had [...]

Contest Winner: Nicholas

Congratulations to Yvonne Gomez who won a free outdoor shelter for their colony cats and a bottle of Feral Flower Essence from FixNation board member Jackson Galaxy's Spirit Essences line through FixNation’s National Feral Cat Day story competition! I have learned so much about my colony’s feral cats; every new experience is amazing. One day, a new feral male kitty came in to eat.  I noticed that he did not have a complete tail.  He ate and promptly left, it was dark and I did not notice his full condition at that time. One day, I saw him come in the [...]

Contest Winner: The love goes both ways

Congratulations to Lisa Cordero who won a free outdoor shelter for their colony cats and a bottle of Feral Flower Essence from FixNation board member Jackson Galaxy's Spirit Essences line through FixNation’s National Feral Cat Day story competition! I am writing on behalf of our amazing colony of feral cats in Boyle Heights. Our journey began about three years ago when we noticed a feral mother cat, since named Grumpy, the loyal father cat, aptly named Poppa, and their five tiny kittens in a yard across the street. I decided to put a bowl of food outside on our front porch [...]

Contest Winner: Gunner & B.B.

Congratulations to Jean Lupien who won a free outdoor shelter for their colony cats and a bottle of Feral Flower Essence from FixNation board member Jackson Galaxy's Spirit Essences line through FixNation’s National Feral Cat Day story competition! I have been taking care of a colony in North Hollywood for about 5 years. But, a family of b&w’s pushed out the other neighborhood cats and seemed to claim me as their own around 2012. No other cats dared come around. I learned about TNR’ing at that point because my landlord insisted I get them all fixed if I was to continue [...]
