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.
How? Come to "Moneyland" (your
nearby Pacific Finance office) and

Cat Care, being a local or
ganization, cannot be found

pick up service, it is unique
in its capacities.
Membership in the organi

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. The
organization advises that vol
unteers will not be turned
down.
Voluntary contributions or
membership requests may be
mailed to the Cat Care so
ciety, post office box 3, Med
