Project L began with a plan: spend the winter trapping, spaying, and neutering in hopes of getting ahead of the unimaginable number of litters produced at this location year after year. But the reality is kittens are being born right now and all through the winter. For years, this unmanaged colony, right here in Norwich, has been a hot spot of suffering. Kittens are born into conditions they cannot survive. Many never make it. Some are found deceased. And after a kitten season that was beyond words, we know we have to act.  What we didn't know was the scope of what we were walking into. We are already identifying more than 50 cats, with many more believed to be out of sight. Over one weekend we have taken in six cats, including four highly compromised kittens, just 5-6 weeks old. These little ones need intensive care, and we are doing everything we can to help them fight their way through.  Our original plan remains. We are committed to this colony, to preventing more suffering, and to breaking the devastating cycle of feeding without fixing. Feeding keeps cats alive today. Spaying and neutering helps prevent tomorrow's suffering. Both matter.  <s>The S</s>cope of Project L is already larger than we anticipated, and we cannot do this alone. WE NEED YOUR HELP.
