Our main goal is to rescue cats and kittens and as such we are a no-kill organization. We will care, maintain and rehabilitate as many kittens/cats as possible. We are a connected group of people who see a need to do whatever we can to help these kittens. At any given time, 6-10 volunteers foster anywhere from one to fifteen kittens. Some of the kittens come to us very sick or orphaned, and the foster moms and dads wake every 2-3 hours to feed or check on the kittens, to medicate, and/or to comfort them. false false 88066 In the year ending December 31, 2016, we estimate that we rescued, spayed and neutered approximately 375 cats/kittens and found adoptive homes for 325 of those cats and kittens. The majority of the cats/kittens come to us malnourished and in dire straits. We nurse them back to health and either find them adoptive homes with families that will love them and care for them or we find a foster family that will take them in until we can find families that will adopt them. A few of the cats andkittens who required extraordinary care included these felines. HOLLYWOOD CHARLIE was part of a managed TNR colony in South Florida when he was viciously attackedby a mans dog. Without funds to care for his medical care the folks in Hollywood, Florida met with us mid-way and he instantly became a Candys Cats foster. We took him to one of our veterinarians with a grim prognosis; paralysis due to the dog bite on his spine, possible kidney failure due to a puncture, however, extensive testing proved that his injuries were superficial but had caused deep bruising, so after weeks of wonderful foster love and expert veterinarian care, this once outdoor kitty found his forever home with a volunteer. BARLEY was surrendered to us for euthanasia because he licked himself chronically, had scabs, smelled terrible and the folks couldnt deal with it any longer. It has been a very slow process with allergy testing, specialized injections to control the itching, ongoing medical baths andwhile Barley may never be deemed adoptable because of it, he continues to thrive and live a relatively content life even though he sometimes smells funny. SAGUARO AND SEQUOIA came to us as babies but due to chronic diarrhea, we spent the entire 2015 testing, treating, obtaining different diagnostics, antibiotics, medicines, food trials, at almost 2 years, they are now deemed available for adoption.BOWIE was another kitty we took in who was emaciated, tested positive for feline aids and further testing revealed either horrible physical abuse or automobile accident as his pelvis had been crushed, and he couldnt climb in and out of the litter box appropriately. We continued to care for him into 2016 when he developed neurological issues. QUIGLEY AND DOMINIC are two fosters who have been with theorganization for a while; both developed stomatitis and had to have complete teeth removal and then developed a symptom called pillow feet, or pododermatitis, which is another auto immune disorder, requiring repeat surgeries. After 4 years, Dominic found his forever home and Quigley, we hope, will be next. We continue to take on numerous special needs cats because we dont know what they have when they are picked up off the streets and from unknown backgrounds, but they deserve every chance to live their lives. 88066 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 7800 0 false 0 false false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 10 0 false false false false false false false true false false false true true false false true true true false false X Deborah Hoch 4078102040 8106 Spearfish Ave Orlando FL 32822 Candace Sullivan President 40.00 0.00 X 7800 0 0 Shelly Koch Vice President 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Elaine Wilson Secretary 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Deborah Hoch Treasurer 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Brandi Grovac Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Tracie Germino Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kristin Bagley-Shand Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jeanne Zanegood Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Marsha D'Amelia Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Steve Hoch Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 7800 0 false false false 0 9200 50809 60009 Adoptions 900099 29980 29980 29980 0 0 0 0 0 14054 9200 9487 4567 0 0 0 94556 29980 0 0 0 0 7800 7800 0 0 0 0 0 0 275 275 525 525 0 0 0 0 0 695 695 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 500 500 Veterinary Services 59048 59048 Medicine & Medical Supplies 20127 20127 Cat Food and Supplies 6516 6516 Auto Expense 2920 2920 6899 2375 4524 105305 88066 17239 0 28139 17255 450 811 0 0 307 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 28896 18066 0 0 X 28896 18066 28896 18066 28896 18066 -10749 -81 X false false false X 50871 48302 76368 84843 80789 341173 37625 27649 23554 20880 23254 132962 0 0 0 88496 75951 99922 105723 104043 474135 0 0 474135 0 0 0 0 88496 75951 99922 105723 104043 474135 1.00000 1.00000 0.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X false FL Silent Auction 23254 9200 14054 5800 2635 1052 23254 9200 14054 5800 2635 1052 9487 4567 X false false false Form 990, Part VI, Line 8: Explanation of No Contemporaneously Documentation of Meetings Scan all documents then shred after 7 years.
