NO MORE KITTEN SEASON.ORG

If a person uses birth control and loses their housing, does that mean they should be denied birth control? Or does it mean they need it, more than ever? Is the presence of a roof over a person's head a good way to decide what is needed?  Would it be a good idea for the entire homeless population to crank out babies and try to raise them on the streets? Of course not! It's a disaster, in the making. And it's a disaster when it happens to cats, too.

​

A cat needs birth control, sometimes as early as four months of age. It doesn't stop needing it, if it's born without a roof over its head, or if it's dumped outside, when its owners move away or discover it's pregnant and don't want to start paying for kitten food. It will need birth control again, soon after those kittens are born.

​

A stray cat is a cat that has been failed by humans and does not have housing and it does not stop needing what it needs.

​

We need to provide birth control, not based on whether the cat has a roof over its head and an owner making arrangements for it.

​

We need to do it, based on NECESSITY.
