This boy is Cashew.
A stunning wee boy, super happy, playful and full of beans. He was found dumped at a house in the border area recently. Unfortunately, he has some neurological issues, showing among other symptoms in a head tilt.
He also has microphthalmia of both eyes -a congenital condition also known as micro eyes-meaning he was born with abnormally small and underdeveloped eyeballs. While there is no cure, these special-needs cats typically adapt remarkably well and can live long, happy, and playful lives with proper veterinary care.
The vet said that he has no vision whatsoever but that he compensates with hearing and touch to such an extent that it appears as if he can see. Ideally he should have both eyes removed to reduce the risk of infection and tear production, but with his other issues the vet found it safer to wait till he is older and hopefully more stable to complete the operation.
Cashew will need a loving inside only home.

Jollyes Londonderry - The Pet People
The wonderful customers at jollyes have once again provided us with a fantastic amount of food that will fill many hungry tummies in the next weeks.
We have been blown away by the kindness of both Jollyes staff and customers and this helps the rescue and also supports many low income family pets.
Thank you so much to all who donated a can instore

TNR stands for TrapNeuterReturn
TNR is the best and only way to manage the number of feral cats. TNR is used worldwide, not just in Ireland.
1. Set a humane TRAP, loaded with tempting smelling food.
2. Once the cat is caught- you bring the trap, with cat inside, to the vets.
3. The vet will transfer the cat into a special cage where they can safely administer anaesthetic.
4. The vet will then NEUTER the cat and ear tip them.
5. After that, you collect the cat and keep it safe in the trap overnight with food and water.
6. The next day, you RELEASE the cat back to the same location.
7. The cat will now be fit to live a life free of hormone driven fighting and mating.

We lend out humane cat traps against a €10 refundable deposit, which u get back when the trap is returned clean, in good condition within 2 weeks.

The universal sign of a neutered/ spayed feral cat is ear tipping, which is where the vet removes the very tip of the ear under anaesthetic. This makes the cat easily recognizable as a spayed/ neutered cat. You need to ask the vet to do this when you bring the cat in.

Animals In Need Donegal have traps / carriers to lend out in the following locations. M**f, Convoy, Donegal Town, and Letterkenny. We will show u how to use it and give you a sheet of advice and tips for successful trapping and you then bring the cat to your chosen vet to get spayed/ neutered before being released back with yourself. At no time will you need to handle the cat.

AIN will help with the cost wherever possible. This will need to be arranged before the cat is booked into the vets (selected vets only).

Unfortunately, we do not have enough volunteers available to call out to all tnr locations but rely on the public to help, as feral cats are a community problem and we are all the solution.
