Scientists at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden’s Center for Conservation and Research of Endangered Wildlife made a breakthrough in finding a single dose of anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) gene therapy that can induce long-term contraception in female cats. The study, funded by the Joanie Bernard Foundation and the Michealson Found Animals Foundation, represents a major milestone in finding a way to humanely reduce free-roaming cats.

Give Them Ten announces that seven organizations located across the U.S. have now joined the movement by becoming licensees.

Scooter’s Spay-a-thon has been on the road with “The Fix is IN!”, a partnership between Pet Friendly Services of Indiana and Public Vet. Since the program’s launch, the mobile clinic has spayed/neutered thousands of cats in Indiana’s most rural communities. The success of the program has led to the expansion from five to 17 Indiana counties, making it easier for residents to access affordable spay/neuter for both pet cats and community cats.

Give Them Ten director and founder Deborah Cribbs and Scooter the Neutered Cat joined Good Day Dayton to talk about the recently launched Scooter’s Help Center and how the Greater Cincinnati and Dayton communities are responding to the 1-833-GIVE-TEN hotline they can call to get cat questions answered.

The Joanie Bernard Foundation and the Give Them Ten Movement, in partnership with Ingham County Animal Control, are addressing the cat population issue in Ingham County, Michigan. By launching free spay/neuter programs in the area, Ingham County Animal Control and Give Them Ten hope to tackle the root cause of the county’s large population of community cats, which currently number anywhere from 50,000 to 75,000.
