Congratulations to Beryl Acosta 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! About 5 years ago my elderly neighbor, Alice, had been feeding cats that would come around. One day she told me that a Mom-Cat had emerged from under a bush in her garden with 4 little kittens. That is the beginning of my adventure into the world of TNR and the feral cats I have come to love so much. Since that time, [...]

Congratulations to Sandra Lynn 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 with community cats started about three years ago when I was leaving work and I saw a Siamese kitty wet and crying, I noticed that he was left alone when two wild dogs killed his mother in the back of the big parking lot.  I built a shelter outside of my office to protect him from cold and other predators. I was [...]

Congratulations to Rodger Mc Cullough 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 Rodger I am 54 years old this week. I have had cats all of my life. In 2000 I moved to a rural area with open space. How God guided it I will never know, but a 6 week old black kitty appeared in my yard in spite of coyotes and such. Joe became my buddy and is still [...]

Congratulations to Judy Taylor 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! Here is her story, written by Larry Taylor: It was a pathetic little thing. A tiny, filthy creature, mostly bones and matted orange-and-white fur and not a lot of that. Half of its face was covered with mange, and fleas ran wild. Its stomach, bloated with worms and parasites, ballooned out from the fragile skeleton. The insides of its ears, made comically [...]

Congratulations to Tom Pepper 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 name is Tom and I am not a cat person. I live with my elderly parents who are cat people. But for the last 50 years, they will not go out and get themselves a cat. But they will feed strays until the cows come home. Enter tortoise colored female cat named GPS (name to be explained later), and her single male [...]

Congratulations to Sallie Higgins 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! When I first moved into my house in South Hollywood it had been vacant for 10 months. I soon discovered that not only had my fixer been home to the homeless but when I took possession it was still home to a dozen rapidly multiplying feral cats that had taken residence in the crawl space beneath the house. It didn’t take long to [...]

Congratulations to Michelle Garcia 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 care for a colony of 4 cats. Last summer two more adult cats showed up.  I trapped them and brought them in to FixNation. The wonderful staff were great and helped me. They told me that the female had recently given birth.  Oh no just the thing I was trying to avoid. Then two weeks later I saw two kittens in the back yard. I was [...]

Congratulations to Emily Barclay Ford 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 kitties my whole life. My family was a rescue family… We always had a cornucopia of rescue dogs and cats in Oklahoma. When I went off to college in California, of course a stray showed up at my boyfriend’s apartment. Because we couldn’t keep pets, I ended up having my mother fly Ollie home to Oklahoma where he [...]

Congratulations to Shicana 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 name is Shicana and I am a feeder. Unexpectedly and to my own amazement, I went from having no cats (after my last feline Ajna passed away three years ago) to feeding and housing a colony of ten…or whomever happens to wander by and needs a snack on any particular day. Here on Romar Street in Northridge, my neighbor Judy—the other cat [...]
