Caretaker says:


The pictures below are of a beautiful feral cat named Patches that I am trying to relocate. I have been caring for Patches in my back patio for over 3 years. I live in Philadelphia and my husband and I are moving out of state. My neighbor said she would take over the responsibility for feeding and providing shelter for him but it seems she is not very consistent and I am worried about his well being long term. I will trap and transport him to any location that is available. I think he is neutered but I have not trapped him to confirm that, I will be able to pay for that expense as well if needed. If someone is willing to care for him I am also able to pay for his food/shelter expenses as well. I wish I could take him with me. I feel very responsible for his care since I have been doing it so long. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.

All cats are vaccinated, dewormed, tested and altered as part of the adoption contract. This basic care (and other vet work required to make our rescues healthy) is included in the $85 adoption donation!
