Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region: Stretch and Scratch Cat Scratchers Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

The product grant provided Stretch and Scratch Cat Scratchers for the shelter.

The Stretch and Scratch Cat Scratchers grant not only helped cats at the shelter -- but all cats in need in our community. As a partner of the Southern Colorado Animal Coalition (SCAC), a 20+ member agency that works both independently and collectively as advocates of animal care, HSPPR was able to share the cat scratchers with area cat rescues.

How many pets did this grant help?

The grant will assist up to 1,600 cats when all scratchers have been disbursed in 2014.

Please provide a story of one or more specific pets this grant helped.

Even former Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) cat, Julio, enjoyed “tearing it up” on the cat scratcher, while waiting for adoption into his forever home (picture included).
