Assisted Living Program
We work with two licensed assisted living centers:
The Sheakum Center for behavioral modification and vocational
rehabilitation. We used our feral cat program to spay/neuter more than 45
cats within a 4 month period. We have been involved in Pet Therapy with
the residents, teaching them proper pet responsibility which includes
taking care of the ferals and their companion animals.
The Tender Hearts Assisted Living facility for the mentally
disadvantaged. We have an on-going pet therapy program which includes
providing food for the companion animals and helping with all medical
problems, etc. These people are on such a limited budget that after all is
paid they are left with as little as $30.00 or $40.00 dollars a month...
this would be for their personal needs. Taking care or even getting
routine shots for their animal is a hardship.
