Save a Stray…Become a Fixed Fur Life “Guardian Angel” Today!

Fixed Fur Life’s loyal supporters are the foundation of our rescue efforts. However, with the increasing number of animals coming our way every day/year, we need your help so we can continue to keep our doors open and save more lives.

We operate strictly on a volunteer basis (no paid employees or government funding) so every single dollar donated goes to the day-to-day and medical care of the animals (e.g., spaying, neutering, vaccinations and medical emergencies).  We rely heavily on the generosity of donors who drop off items throughout the year to help us reduce the financial strain of providing basic and necessary supplies like KMR milk formula, food and specialized foods for seniors/urinary care/GI sensitivities, cat litter, cleaning supplies, puppy pads, toys and warm blankets for over 2,000 animals we care for each year.

Through monthly donations, you can provide Fixed Fur Life with a consistent and reliable source of funding that allows us to plan ahead. When you donate monthly, you will join a special group of Guardian Angels reaching out to provide essential funding of our daily efforts to save more animals. Together, we can rescue more abandoned animals, help prevent pet over population, and offer our rescued animals the hope of a better, safer life.

Organization seeking assistance

Since 2004 Fixed Fur Life, a charitable organization, has been working aggressively in the Quinte community to combat pet overpopulation. To date they have successfully spayed and neutered 23,266 cats and dogs in Quinte.

As hard as we work out in the community to combat the overpopulation crisis we are still seeing multitudes of cats and kittens out in our community that are breeding continuously, as evidenced by the recent report of overcrowding at local shelters.

Our goal is to reduce these numbers thus decreasing the burden on local shelters. While the efforts are tireless and frustrating at times we do believe that aggressive Spaying and neutering is the answer and eventually we will see the results.

Fixed Fur Life assists over 2,000 cats and dogs per year. At any given time during the year we will have 2 to 300 cats in our intake area, foster homes and four adoption centers. As we adopt out we take more in from the long waiting list we have acquired. Referrals come to us by word of mouth, the veterinary community, other rescue organizations and shelters.

As the cold weather approaches our efforts are ramped up to get as many pregnant females and kittens off the streets and inside. With these increased efforts comes an increased expense. FFL receives zero funding and relies on donations and fundraisers to continue its efforts. FFL is comprised of volunteers with zero paid staff which allows us to direct all funds to veterinary expenses defined as spaying, neutering and medical emergencies.

We are hoping to reach our next goal of 24,000 by the end of December 2018. If you would like to assist us in our endeavour donations can be mailed to P.O. Box 20091 Belleville K8N 5V1.

On Line donations can be made through our website www.fixedfurlife.com
