The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets, along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Alley Cat Rescue has determined that no such liabilities were required at July 31, 2025. true Sub-saharan Africa 0 1 Program Services Spay/Neuter Wild Cats 60466 1 1 60466 60466 Sub Sahara Wild Cat Control 60466 Wire 1 false false false false false false Part I, Line 2 - Grantmakers Explanation For Monitoring Use of Funds Outside US Alley Cat Rescue reimburses various organizations in South Africa for spay/neuter expenses.
