This is a great chance to begin controlling the feral cat population in Columbia. I hope we can get the maximum of 75 that day. They are out there.
An event for Columbia residents an it is in LANCASTER? When did Columbia move?
The facility is in Lancaster.
This is a gift to borough residents. Please be thankful that someone is making this possible.
How many people in this town can afford to take their cat or any cat to Lancaster????
OMG DO PEOPLE EVER STOP WHINING????
Walk or take the bus,, it's right on Roherstown Road off Route 462.
Good job! I think it's great for this establishment to try and improve the cat population & health of animals!
Why worry about cats, lets get our taxes in this town SPADE AND NEUTERED!!
People trying to help make OUR town a little better and people still find a reason to bitch! Story wasn't about when did Columbia move or about taxes.
I think you might mean spayed.
While I understand transportation could be a problem for some, it's still a lot closer than it had been. A few years ago Columbia was contracted with the Humane League, which is on Lincoln Highway East. At that time, I trapped four feral cats in my area and arranged to take them on my day off of work. It did cost me time and money, but it reduced the cat population. This is not for everyone, but hopefully those that can will help.
Now Bob, that is a pretty long walk and carrying a feral cat too! I doubt that the bus driver will welcome them on board.
The drivers of our public transportation are very pleasant people.
If caged properly, I'm sure they would be compassionate for such a short ride.
Never hurts to try.
