I found a kitten
What should I do?

Mom will likely return. Please don’t intervene.

When we find a litter of kittens, our good-hearted instincts tell us to rush to the aid of these fragile felines. Thankfully, human intervention is typically not required.

“For so long, we thought bringing cats to shelters was the best way to help them, but we now realize that most of the time, we can actually help them better by leaving them where they are. Lost cats are more likely to get home, kittens are more likely to grow up healthy and happy, and community cats are more likely to thrive (and less likely to cause problems) when we help them in the community where we find them rather than bringing them to a shelter.

MONDAY – SATURDAY CLINICS (BY APPOINTMENT ONLY)

In order to ensure the safety of our valued community cat caregivers and the cats in their care, the Monday – Saturday Community Cat Clinic is now accessible through an online sign-up process. This allows individuals who have trapped a cat as early as 10:00 PM the night before surgery to reserve 1 of the 10 daily spots safely (from their home computer or mobile device).

Sunday Feral and Community Cat Clinic Sponsorship

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) estimates that there are tens of millions of community cats roaming throughout the country.  Our region is home to a countless number of these cats.  Community cats are cats that are born and raised in the wild or have been abandoned or lost and turned to wild ways to survive. Community cats typically live in a colony which occupies a specific territory where food and shelter can be found.
