The aim of this week is to raise the awareness about feral cats and the importance of neutering.
On the 8th of August, we will be launching the week with an information table in Maxi Zoo in Midleton, so make sure to call in to say hello.
During the week, we will be posting information on this website and on our Facebook page about feral cats. You can also visit the Feral Cats Ireland website and Facebook page for more information.
Why not help us raise awareness by printing the following posters and placing them in your local shop, community centre, co-op, etc?

Vets in Cork and beyond supporting the initiative
A number of vets in Cork have kindly accepted to support this initiative by offering a discounted rate to members of the general public for the neutering of stray and feral cats during that week. So, if you are feeding a stray cat and her kittens, it’s time to get them all neutered to avoid them from breeding and increase their health.
Please, ring the practice for a quote and to make an appointment.
