Gulf Shore Animal League

Gulf Shore Animal League is on a Mission to make Manatee County a "No Kill" community and you can help!

Gulf Shore Animal League is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the welfare of stray and feral cats in our community. In addition to our work with hundreds of individuals, we have also forged alliances with numerous businesses to control and protect the feral cat population. The Sandbar Restaurant, Quality Plumbing, Bray Roofing, and others are currently partnering with us to curb (and to one day eliminate) the unnecessary practice of euthanasia of healthy cats and kittens as a method of population control. Our program consists of trapping the cats, vetting them for health screening, spaying or neutering the cats, adminstering a rabies vaccine, tipping the left ear so that it can be readily identified, microchipping and returning the cats to the colony. The volunteer caretakers provide food and water for the colony and oversee their continuing care. The end result is a healthy, managed cat colony that no longer produces kittens or the unwanted mating and territorial behaviors.
