The aim is to reduce the number of kittens born to feral cats in the Javea area and to keep the feral cat population as healthy as possible. Cats are caught by Liz and June and taken to a vet to be sterilised. They receive no funding for their work and rely totally on donations. Feral cats and kittens that may make good house pets are put up for adoption. JFCA pay for spaying and injections at 6 months.

They have collection boxes in many shops but funds have recently dried up. They are hoping that this fair will enable them to continue their work and help control the numbers of feral cats.
