At NAPS our primary goal is to reduce the stray, feral and homeless animal population in Nanton with our TNR (Trap, Neuter, Release) Program. We allocate a large portion of funds annually to trap, sterilize and re-release feral felines, or place them through our Barn Cat Program. These programs, along with various public engagement opportunities help us to spread the word of responsible pet ownership within our community and surrounding areas.
Since late April 2021, NAPS has taken in 7 mother cats and their 34 kittens. The costs associated with ensuring these kittens and their mothers are in good health, as well as preparing them for adoption put great financial stress on our organization. Our adoption fee table outlines adoption fees. Currently, these fees do not cover all associated costs and NAPS incurs a cost of approximately $85 - $150 per kitten after factoring in adoption fees.
A general breakdown of the costs for each cat NAPS takes in are as follows:
