Now thru Oct 31: Great Nonprofits Reviews

Why is this so important?
Nonprofits who have a Great Nonprofits badge are more likely to attract donors and supporters than those who do not have one.
We need 10 reviews by Oct. 31st to be eligible for a badge renewal.

Consider making a donation or becoming a volunteer in honor of Global Cat Day.
October 19th – Barktoberfest
We are truly the underdog as a cat organization that participates in Barktoberfest! The truth is we know families with coexisting cats and dogs are out there, and may not know who we are and what we do!
Our CCAP team intends to promote our organization, and raise funds for our adoption program. If you see us, say hello, donate, and help us spread the word about how spay/neuter is for both cats and dogs!
San Antonio Feral Cat Coalition and The Big Give SA
Tonight at 6 p.m. BIG GIVE 2024 OFFICIALLY BEGINS! Thank you to all our early donors and fundraisers who have shown their support to our cause. We are at 11% of our big goal because of you. If you haven’t donated because you are waiting to take advantage of Big Give’s match minutes, this email is for you!
When you donate tonight and tomorrow during our match minutes, sponsors will match every donation up to $100 received! For $100, we can purchase food and litter for our fosters and support our spay/neuter fund. If these $100 donations are matched and become $200, we can get our programs in better shape to help cats and kittens who desperately need TNR and sometimes critical medical intervention.
Listen to our video above about The Big Give 2024!
Want to further your impact? Please review the Match Minute schedule below! What is a Match Minute? When you donate at one of the following times, one of Big Give’s generous sponsors will match donations of $100 or less until their Match Minute Fund is fully used.

Your Story Can Help Us Get Grants!
Aside from generous donations, we depend on grants for all our programs to survive. We need your help! If you have taken advantage of our TNR Programs by getting traps and cats fixed using our low cost spay/neuter services, please email your story .
All final grant reports must have stories with photos illustrating how grant funds were spent, and your story can really help the cats and kittens we’ve yet to rescue.
If we have helped you with our Cat Crisis Fund or taken in kittens for adoption, we want to hear from you! If your story is selected to be used in one of our final grant reports, your story will be featured in our Newsletter and you’ll get a free SAFCC tee!
Stories should say how SAFCC helped you do TNR or helped with your cat situation. Before and after pics are highly encouraged!
Please send submissions to info@sanantonioferalcats.org
We look forward to receiving them!
Cat of the Month: Bagel Bite
Meet Bagel, the adorable grey and white tabby who just celebrated his first birthday on June 19th! Bagel came to us as a baby who was found struggling to survive at a construction site. His finder thought he was blind, and he struggled to drink water resulting in extreme dehydration and constipation.
Though an adult now, Bagel is still a petite guy with the heart and spirit of a kitten. He’s developmentally delayed and a little visually impaired, but that only adds to his unique charm. Bagel loves to play with other kittens, toys, and he hops and zooms around with glee while singing his song.
He has the most delightful hummingbird purr and makes perfect little biscuits, especially in his favorite puffy bed. Chin pets and face rubs are his absolute favorite! While Bagel is still learning litter box manners, he does handle his business in the bathroom on an easy-to-clean surface.
If you want to add Bagel Bite to your family, please go here: Adoption Application
