Hello
My husband is a Pastor and we just bought a building to meet in and had our first service there last week. WE have been in this building now for a couple weeks and we seem to have a church cat. She is on the small size and I would "guess" to be about a year old. Shes very skinny and appears to live under the front porch steps. We talked her into letting us pet her and once she got to know us is extremely friendly.
I called the local No Kill shelter to find out if they would take her and they said we needed to get her checked at a vet for good health and make sure she didnt have Feline Leuk. and then they would take her at the shelter for $25 donation. So the test would be $30 and then the $25 that we just cant afford. If we could afford another cat we'd just bring her home with us. **sigh**
So my question is how can I get her help. The neighbors by the church talked about calling animal control but Im sure they would just put her to sleep and I defiently dont want that. Shes such a sweet cat.
I called a family friend who runs a shelter or something......I dont know for sure Ive just heard about it from other family......and Im still waiting to hear back from her and Im praying she can help.
Any advice or imput would be great.......
Thanks
