10 A MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. ORB. SUNDAY, JULY 3, !e0 The Week in California Irs -- 17 I 'M ,,,. , .---.-r-.--Vyi'1;'1 ' , - v II I MEOW Several parts of the Cat Care's problems are shown trying to escape the , bonds of the cage. Cat Care, a non-profit, local organization dedicated to the care of lost and stray cats, has scores of these felines awaiting homes. Because of financial difficulties, the local society has been un- able to house and care for as many animals Organization Specializes in Caring for "Hello? Is this Cat Care? I found a cat on a little country road near here; would you come pick it up? This simple, but pains-tak ing request is duplicated some 25 to 30 times a week by residents throughout the val ley when help is needed with (tray or lost animals. Most people know that lost and found animals, including cats, are usually disposed of by contacting a local humane society. But what people gen erally don't realize or are not aware of is that animals must be brought to the society, since they offer no pick-up service. To abolish this problem and to help stray or lost felines, a group of Medford residents organized last July an inde pendent, non-profit associa tion called "Cat Care so ciety." Donation Supporttd Although the cat club is supported solely on donations and memberships, it has man aged to succeed since last summer on the limited funds. Officers of the society have reported that requests for services have increased dy namically during its short life, and during the past two months over 175 calls re questing placement of kittens have been received. At the present time there are about 40 members and contributors in the group. This financial help, the so ciety points out, is only enough to defray some of the cost of veterinary fees and . the purchase of humane lit erature to inform local resi dents of the present situation. Considering that the society picks up the animals and must feed them until place ment is available, additional financial help is needed and wanted, society spokesmen emphasize. Where to house the kittens Is another problem. Because economic reasons prohibit building a regular shelter at this time, club officers have been forced to accommodate the cats in their own homes. Several members have 3, 8, 15, or more cats at their homes at one time. Whatever you need money for - to ;take care of ftrst-of the yeaf ex penses, to reduce monthly payments, to take a trip, to buy your family the dings they want and need-whatever the reason, now you may get that money quickly and conveniently.

These people are the ones responsible for and in charge of making policies for Cat Care. Unique in Capaciiiei Cat Care, being a local or ganization, cannot be found anywhere else in this region, according to the society. Be cause Cat Care does offer a pick up service, it is unique in its capacities. Membership in the organi zation has been set at S2 which signifies interest in the care of kittens and other ani mals and entitles the member to a group organization. In addition to money, pres ently a need is evident for building materials and per sonnel to construct a small shelter for the felines.
