Need help with stray, feral, community cats or TNR?
Stray Cat Project receives dozens of requests for assistance per week from across the nation (and globe). Unfortunately, we do not operate outside of our immediate area (a suburb of Philadelphia), but we're happy to provide direction so that you can find the help and resources you need. To that end:
TO FIND LOW-COST SPAY/NEUTER AND TNR GROUPS IN YOUR AREA, visit Community Cats United's website, www.FixFinder.org, to search in your area. (Be sure to slide the mileage toggle to the right or you'll return a big fat 0.)
Alley Cat Allies is the nations's foremost feral cat advocate. There is a ton of information on their website at www.alleycat.org. There are also network partners across the nation which provide support. TO FIND AN ALLEY CAT ALLIES FERAL FRIENDS NETWORK PARTNER, fill out this form: https://www.alleycat.org/our-work/feral-friends-network/feral-friends-network-connect/
BEST FRIENDS ANIMAL SOCIETY may also have a network partner in your area. SEARCH THEIR DATABASE AT https://bestfriends.org/our-work/supporting-network-partners/network-partners
IF YOU ARE UNSUCCESSFUL WITH THE ABOVE, Google "TNR near me" or "Low-cost veterinary clinics near me." You can also call your local SPCA or humane society to find out who the TNR groups are in your area. Low-cost clinics can also refer you to a TNR or rescue group as they are working together to process hundreds of animals per week.
LOOK FOR THE MONEY! Grant money may be available for low-cost or no-cost services. Ask the clinics if they are aware of any animal welfare organizations that provide vouchers for reduced cost/no-cost services for good Samaritans like you. Animal welfare groups typically do not waste valuable resources on advertising so you're going to have to call around to track down available funding.
Need more pointers? Feel free to send us a PM. All of us at Stray Cat Project are volunteers and learned "on the job." We're happy to share our experience with others to help improve the lives of community cats throughout the globe.
Thank you for all you do for the kitties!
