Review for Friendly Ferals Inc, Forest Hills, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Mary Tschinkel, founder of Friendly Ferals has been my mentor in learning how to TNR and how to care for feral colonies. She has helped so many people in NYC, it is truly amazing. I have learned so many trapping techniques from her. She has saved the lives of so many kittens and cats and has given hope to ordinary people who feed and care for cats in the streets. She is all about the cats, and for improving their changes for a better life in the street. I recently participated in an ASPCA spay day where she coordinated the spaying and neutering of 71 cats, in one single day! If this is not a sign of her dedication I don't know what is! Because of her work I go the extra mile myself in educating people about TNR and in doing the physical work that is involved. When I am feeling tired I just think of her somewhere doing the work. It immediately inspires me to keep at it. She deserves a grant or something to help keep the worry from her work, and to help with the costs she incurs without reimbursement. Even a little grant would help her tremendously because she knows exactly what she needs to help more. Her experience in TNR enables her to envision how she can improve the work she already does. Thank you Mary.
