We need pet sponsors so we can provide sanctuary of our existing critter population for a long, happy life. We realize that not everyone is able to adopt another companion, but sponsorship is another way to help. (It's somewhat like adopting a whale or an ocean, in that you don't actually take it home.)

We need volunteers to help with special projects (like fencing and putting up solar panels) as well as cattery and kennel helpers.

We need donations from our wish list.

If you are in the Indian Wells Valley, you can recycle your CRV beverage bottles and cans, household glass bottles, aluminum cat food cans, as well as newspaper and cardboard at Golden Empire Salvage at 811 E. Ridgecrest Blvd. and ask them to credit it to the Tulgey Wood Critter Refuge account. (If you don't already have a designated favorite charity.)

You can send us your used inkjet and laser printer cartridges, and cell phone batteries so that we can recycle them for funds.

We need educators to assist with teaching classroom curricula, and distribution of some wonderful humane educational materials and videos that we have found.

And last, but not least, we need all of you kind people to assist with memberships and donations so that we can expand our efforts to address the pet overpopulation crisis and work with the city and county in this area to establish a humane, cost-effective, and mutually beneficial solution for the feral & stray cats and the communities in which they live.
