Virden Pet Network introduces "Barn Buddies". This program places cats that are unsuitable as house pets on farms or rural properties. In exchange for a safe place to live, Barn Buddy cats will provide rodent control services for free.
And because all the Barn Buddies have been spayed/neutered, health checked and vaccinated, you’ll get a healthy cat that won’t produce unwanted kittens and will be less likely to spray, fight or roam.
Donations are gratefully accepted but Barn Buddies are available at no cost to rural dwellers who can provide the following:
- shelter in heated or working barns, sheds or stables
- daily food and water... cats can’t live on mice alone
- veterinary care if needed
- a place to contain them for 2 weeks while they get used to their new home.
The Barn Buddies program will allow Virden Pet Network to take in more strays and place them where they can enjoy good lives and fulfilling careers in pest control!
