WWR provides medical, behavioral and physical support for cats despite their age and/or health. We promote sustainable living and caregiving by building awareness, appreciation and respect for all animals in our community. We believe that our responsibility is first to the cats that are in local, open-access shelters with a high probability of being euthanized. We primarily take in cats from shelters in Tipton, Lauderdale, Fayette, Madison counties in West Tennessee.

YES: Mamdani's administration just funded New York City's first-ever pet food pantry program.
$750,000 in the FY2027 budget, specifically to help pet owners who can't afford food for their animals. Another $750,000 goes toward affordable spay/neuter services. $1.5 million total, aimed at keeping people and their pets together.
Here's why it matters: NYC animal shelters took in over 16,000 animals last year. Nearly 10,000 were strays. Another 6,500 were owner surrenders — people who loved their pets but couldn't afford to feed them or get them basic vet care, and had to give them up.
Animal welfare advocates had been pushing for this for years, asking for $15.3 million to fully fund pantries, spay/neuter clinics in every borough, and a real animal welfare office. They got a fraction of the ask, But it's the first time the city has put dedicated dollars behind the idea at all.
No family should have to choose between rent and feeding their family — pets included. This is a start.
