The total of our Spring Easter On-Line Auction is now in. We made Just over $1,600. All the kitties were jumping for joy when they heard this and we were too! Thank you to everyone who participated in one way or another, whether by sharing the event on your time line, by donating items or by bidding on items, or by doing all of the above!! Many thanks!!! Without the support of many wonderful people, many of whom care deeply about the plight of cats, the auction would not have been a success. But our vet bills are high and we cannot sit on our laurels, so we are already preparing for our next fundraising event: a garage and plant sale on May 14, 2022.

Gary, pictured here, says he is impressed. Why? Because NSNAP outdid itself by raising $3348 in its Fall Sale at the Fairview Mall in St. Catharines! Some much needed money to help with our vet bills. Thank you to everyone who helped us achieve this goal. Thank you to all our great volunteers, to everyone who came out to the sale and to everyone who donated items for the sale. People have been very generous. And we need that to be able to do the work we do!! Yes, we spay neuter, but sometimes spay neuters throw curve balls at us!! Some cats we take in for spay neuter are or become sick and we have to see their care through. We cannot turn our backs on those in need so sometimes our bills are quite hefty! But with all your great support we can continue what we do. So THANK YOU to EVERYONE who contributed to the success of the sale. By the way, Gary and his brother Jerry and sister Aneshka are up for adoption.
Congratulations to our Fall Raffle Winners! First prize was won by Sue Duerden of St. Catharines. Second Prize was won by Leah Fortune also of St. Catharines. Third Prize was won by Linda Deline of N.O.T.L. Thank you to EVERYONE who supported our Fall Raffle either by selling tickets or by buying tickets!! And a great big thank you as well to Pam Frakking for donating the first prize for our Fall Raffle. Our Raffle was a great success with every ticket being sold bringing in some much needed funds to help pay for our vet bills!!
The results are in! We made $2,408 at our recent book sale (August 7 -11, 2019) !! A good job done by everyone, volunteers and everyone who shopped and/or donated to us. We are gratified to have such a good band of volunteers and to have such good community support. Thanks also to Fairview Mall for hosting our event. :-)
Please join us for our SPRING BAZAAR in the Fairview Mall April 24-28. Please click on the poster for details! Lots and lots of new and nearly new items to choose from at great prices!

Meowy!
The head of finance (pictured here) has finally worked it out. We made $1,915 at the book sale. Considering we lost a good day and a half due to the weather this is pretty good!! A heartfelt thanks to everyone who helped with the sale, to everyone who came out to support us whether by purchasing books or donating books, or donating cat food or by slipping some cash in our donation box. Together we made it work despite the obstacles thrown in our way by Mother Nature. A special thanks to Brian for driving the truck in the worst possible weather conditions. Brian never gives up no matter what! Welcome also to our wonderful new volunteers, Carol, Evelyn and Lisa. Our next sale is our SPRING SALE. Announcement coming soon.

Dear friends of NSNAP,
We need your help!! About a month ago a cat, now named Xavier, wandered into one of the feral colonies we manage. He never left the shelters we had out for the cats except to eat. The colony care giver noticed that he always had his eyes closed and that one of the eyes seemed infected. She trapped him and took him to the vet. He turned out to be a very shy, docile cat. At the clinic they referred to him as a “gentleman!” Xavier was diagnosed with a condition in which the eye lashes curl under and continually scrape over the eyes causing much pain and infection. Xavier is going to need surgery to correct this. Needless to say the procedure is costly (approx. $800) an expense not anticipated by NSNAP. So we are asking anyone who can contribute towards his surgery to do so. No amount is too small. Together we will get there. Xavier has already been neutered and vaccinated by us. He is estimated to be about 3 ½ years old. Once he has recuperated from his surgery we will be looking for a special forever home for this sweet “gentleman.” Donations can be made by email nsnap@cogeco.ca or by way of our donation button on our website under the “How You Can Help” tab.
Thank you from all of us at NSANP and from Xavier.
