Distance keeps us apart. Support keeps us strong. Let us stand with our deployed and the families who keep the home fires burning. Because the bravest fight isn't always on the front lines.
Honor the deployed, support their families! Today and every day!!

Did you know?....

Before deciding to put food out for stray cats, read this first!!

While feeding stray or feral cats feels heartfelt and compassionate, leaving food out or intentionally feeding them can actually cause a list of unintented issues for the community.

*More food leads to more kittens -> resulting in overpopulation of the area.

*Invites other wild animals -> providing food, or leaving your pets food out attracts other, maybe nusance animals, i.e. raccoons, skunks, or even cockroaches.

*The potential to spread disease -> providing food may attract unvaccinated cats and other animals, creating a the opportunity to spread ilnesses and parasites among local pets.

Thank you for reading, your cooperation in keeping our Tinker Housing community (including your pets) safe, clean, and healthy is appreciated!
