Pawsitive Change for Kitsap Cats

06/18/2026

PLEASE SHARE AND DONATE!!! Kitsap County NEEDS THIS SO BADLY.

If you feel like vet costs have outpaced inflation over the past decade, you are absolutely right. Studies estimate that vet costs have increased by 40 to 60 percent over the past 10 years.

Neutering a male cat at a private vet in Kitsap County can cost $600 or more. Spaying a female is about twice that cost. Is it any wonder so many cats do not get sterilized?

Our planned clinic for low income cat owners will increase the availability of low-cost options for spay-neuter services, vaccinations, and preventative care.

Please help us help our community by donating to our cause:

* GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/2091b208e
* Our website: https://www.pawsofbremerton.org/donations/

Thank you to everyone who has already donated! If you cannot afford to donate, you can help us by sharing this post.

Those of you who know me have heard me discuss ad nauseam how badly this county needs more low cost Veterinary care for cats and LOW COST SPAY AND NEUTER to help control the overwhelming population growth of unowned cats in our area. PAWS of Bremerton is a trustworthy, dedicated local organization run by some wonderful people who are passionate about helping those who most need it. PLEASE SHARE this fundraiser, and please give if you have the ability! This is something that could make a clear difference right here in our backyard for our own communities and the animals we see suffering every day.

“𝙄 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙙𝙤𝙣’𝙩 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚.”
Honestly?
𝙉𝙚𝙞𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙙𝙤 𝙬𝙚.

Nobody doing TNR has extra time laying around.

😪The people trapping after work?
Tired.

😪The people setting alarms every 45 minutes to check traps?
Tired.

😪The people driving before sunrise to clinics?
Tired.

😪The people answering messages while cooking dinner, raising kids, working jobs, and barely holding their own life together?
Tired.

𝗡𝗼𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲.
People just decide something matters enough to make room for it anyway.

That’s the part we wish more people understood.
𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘁𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗲𝗲?
𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲.

❗️Somebody rearranged their schedule.
❗️Lost sleep.
❗️Spent money.
❗️Sweated their ass off in the heat.
❗️Learned how to trap.
❗️Drove across counties.
❗️Was frustrated.
❗️Overwhelmed.
❗️Burnt out.
…𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗱 𝘂𝗽.

Because once you truly SEE the problem, it becomes really hard to ignore it.

This work is not built on people with unlimited time, money, or energy.

It’s built on ordinary people deciding:
“Someone needs to do something… so I guess it’s gonna be me.”

And honestly?
That mindset is the only reason any of this works at all.

The people making a difference in this community are not super human.

They’re exhausted, ordinary people who decided these “unowned” cats still mattered anyway.

Quick PSA for my plant lovers who also have cats. 🌿🐱

Some of the most popular houseplants out there (pothos, English ivy, sago palm, lilies, daffodils, etc.) are seriously toxic to cats. And unlike dogs or horses, cats have zero evolutionary instinct to avoid them.

I've put together everything you need to know on my blog. Don't skip this one. 👇

Many thanks to Dayna for sending in this pic of Charlie sniffing his totally non-toxic, homegrown catnip. What a lucky boy!
