We believe it is our responsibility, as a community, to care for cats that have been forced, through human abandonment or failure to spay and neuter, to live outdoors. The Feral Cat Coalition is a non-profit organization dedicated to reducing the overpopulation of feral and abandoned cats through free, humane Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR). These cats can be truly feral or friendly strays that have been lost or abandoned. There are not enough resources for the overwhelming number of kittens born each year, which is why spaying and neutering is so important!Īccording to the Humane Society of the United States, tens of millions of unowned cats live outdoors, and most rely on humans for food and shelter.
Just like feral cats, if left unaltered, they will contribute to thousands of unwanted kittens being born in our communities. Stray cats were once pets and have either run away or been abandoned. Without early human contact, their kittens become feral and continue the cycle of reproduction. Female cats can become pregnant as young as five months of age and can give birth several times each year. Due to their lack of socialization, they do not want to be confined indoors with humans or brought inside as pets.įeral cats are the offspring of stray or abandoned pets that are not spayed or neutered. Feral cats are not socialized to humans and will avoid all human contact.
