Fixing Your Cat Could Save Its Life!

Fixing Your Cat Could Save Its Life!

Spaying and neutering cats is one of the best ways to help reduce feline overpopulation but sterilization doesn’t just help community cats – it can help yours! Here are two things you should know:

Spaying & neutering your cat is safe and healthy!
Fixing cats can reduce their risk of fatal medical problems like uterine infections and breast cancer in female cats and testicular cancer in males.

Spay/neuter services don’t have to break the bank.
Medical costs can be expensive, but we believe sterilization is so important that we offer low-cost options for getting your pet spayed or neutered. Click here to read more about our pricing.

SAFE Haven for Cats Feline Fundamentals: Cat Enrichment

Tuesday, June 11
6:30 – 8:00 pm
SAFE Haven for Cats at 8431-137 Garvey Dr in Raleigh
Tickets:$5 donation

It’s no secret – cats get bored, and bored kitties can do bad things. Enrichment can be as simple as finding the perfect toy or as complex as teaching your cat tricks through the use of clickers. Learn some strategies for keeping kitties interested and curious at every stage of their lives.

Keeping kitties engaged and active throughout their lives is just as important as a good diet and regular medical care. We will discuss the environmental enrichment and needs of cats including inexpensive methods to reduce negative behaviors and stress in multi-cat households. We will also demonstrate clicker training for cats. At the end of the session, participants will be able to introduce new enrichment activities to their cats and kittens. We’re putting the FUN back into Feline Fundamentals!
