From Operation Git-Meow
Operation Git-Meow helps the feral cat population at the US Naval Station at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba and in the Washington, DC area.At Guantanamo, we work with the Naval Station to provide microchips and vaccinations for the feral/community cats, and foster and adopt out cats and kittens to base residents.We transport some adoptable cats and kittens to the DC area for adoption to bring awareness to the conditions at Guantanamo.We assist residents with the cost of bringing their pets back to the USA.Our ultimate goal is to secure an exception to Navy policy to provide free trap/neuter/vaccinate/release clinics at Guantanamo, funded by SPCA International as an alternative to the current policy to cull the population through euthanasia and by shooting the feral cats.
