Mountain Top Animal Friends Awarded $1000 Grant

The Windham Chapter is pleased to award a $1000 grant to Mountain Top
Animal Friends. A wonderful and locally run organization, MTAF seeks
to provide funding for the spaying and neutering of cats and dogs in
our community. Spay or neuter surgery carries a one-time cost that is
relatively small when one considers its benefits. It's a small price
to pay for the health of your pet and the prevention of more unwanted
animals. It can help behavior problems and allow pets to live longer
and healthier lives. Communities spend much money to control unwanted
animals, and animal shelters statewide are overburdened with surplus
animals. Stray pets and homeless animals get into trash containers,
defecate in public areas or on private lawns, and frighten or anger
people who have no understanding of their misery or needs. Some stray
animals also scare away or kill birds and wildlife. For more
information about how you can help Mountain Top Animal Friends,
contact Marlene Burgess at 518-734-4374.

The Windham Chapter of the Catskill Mountain Foundation is a division
of the Catskill Mountain Foundation and a 501(c)3 not-for profit
organization. The Windham Chapter is governed by a Board of Directors,
which serves on a non-paid volunteer basis. For more information,
