169 Community Cats Spayed or Neutered in One Day at Alley Cat Allies Feline Frenzy® in Canton, Ohio

"Through Feline Frenzy, Alley Cat Allies is working with local advocates to help cats here and now with TNR, veterinary care and cat food at no cost to the community. We are also investing in community outreach and education that will have an even greater impact into the future," said DanaMarie Pannella, director of law and policy at Alley Cat Allies. "Today, we're setting the groundwork to save many more cats' lives."

Community cats spayed or neutered through Feline Frenzy were also vaccinated, eartipped, microchipped, and received any other necessary care, all funded by Alley Cat Allies and provided in conjunction with AlterClinic. Each caregiver who brought cats to the event received Alley Cat Allies' educational resources, wet cat food, and more support to help them protect the cats who are their community members.

Recognizing the significant need in the area, Alley Cat Allies will continue to work in close collaboration with Akron-Canton advocates to reach more community cats and provide no-cost resources. Additional Feline Frenzy events are slated for the coming weeks.
