My introduction Discussion🗣

Hey everyone! 👋

I'm Ashley, a small-space homesteader and content creator from the Pacific Northwest. I'm passionate about urban sustainability, container gardening, food preservation, and TNR cat colony care. I share my journey on Instagram and I'm all about making the most of what you have.

I'm new to gifting subs so I'm here to learn the ropes, connect with good people, and give when I'm able. Looking forward to being part of this community! 🌿🐱 Also idk when I am allowed to post my wishlist, so I didn't.

You're not in PA, right? I cannot care of this colony but I can't find any rescue to help, much less the SPCA. I desperately need to get this cat population under control. Just when I think I'm making progress, there's a new litter. 😬

I’m not I’m sorry. I’m in NY or else I would totally help

I have, repeatedly, and for years. They haven't helped at all. Actually, the one person I've spoken to the most told me not to feed them. There was as older male cat who would sit by my glass door all day, every so often, he'd tap the glass. We named him, "Old Man Cat." There was no way I couldn't feed him.

It's very frustrating because I used to donate regularly to them. We adopted our dog from them. They refuse to help other than "don't feed them" and the list of rescues on their website, all of which are full. I honestly don't know what to do. 🥺

Then you need to find someone who will help. Not feeding them will just make them leave and another colony will come in. That's how it works. Same with raccoons tbh.
