When deemed necessary, veterinary treatment, including spaying neutering and distemper and rabies vaccinations are obtained for the cats. Euthanasia is not considered unless a cat is gravely ill and then it is done to prevent or end the cat's suffering. In 2023 KVCKR transported countless numbers of cats and kittens to clinics for spay/neutering, rabies and distemper vaccinations, and Leukemia and FIV testing. If fleas, worms, or ear mites were detected the cats received treatment. 0 0 KVCKR sheltered in excess of 200 cats at any given time in 2023. The cats were given veterinary care, fresh water daily and were fed both dry and canned food. They were provided with pleasant living conditions, including heated buildings, air conditioning, water fountains, and outdoor enclosed pateos. Our "feral" cats and our Leukemic cats who were otherwise healthy were not euthanized, but were provided with the same care as the more adoptable of our population. The cats at KVCKR are allowed to live out their lives at the shelter if adoptive homes are not found for them. Our cats are not euthanized until they are suffering from old age and/or appear to have a fatal illness and have no quality of life remaining. 0 0 140 KVCKR cats and kittens were placed in loving adoptive homes in 2023. 0 0 KVCKR donated or provided at cost flea, worm, and ear mite treatments for community cats. KVCKR helped local communities get their cat populations under control by loaning out traps for TNR, and by absorbing the cost of the spay/neutering as funds were available. Both dry and canned cat food was donated to persons feeding outdoor colonies of cats as excess food became available to the shelter. 0 0 0 M Renee Gazarik President 40 0 0 0 Tracy Rago Vice President 7 0 0 0 Joseph Gazarik Sec/Treas 7 0 0 0 Christine Bottegal Farrell Board member 7 0 0 0 Roseanne Williams board member 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 M Renee Gazarik PO Box 19 Apollo PA 15613 7247277032 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 36265 28774 30523 28794 34731 159087 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 36265 28774 30523 28794 34731 159087 10000 149087 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 159087 0 0.93714 1 X Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 8 Adoption fees, $9230 Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Cat food, $12267 Litter, $13842 Removal of soiled litter, $6904 Medications, $8736 Veterinary expenses, $11016 Larger hot water tank, $619 Shelter insurance, $1044 Web site domain, $289
