In Your Neighborhood:
Would you enjoy helping a small group of outdoor cats live healthy lives without reproducing? Every day, kind people in the East Bay and throughout the United States provide care to outdoor cats. Fix Our Ferals supports spay/neuter of all neighborhood cats, followed by care and feeding.
Caring for a colony is fascinating and rewarding. Responsible care means:
- Trap-Neuter-Return, first and foremost. Only neutered colonies can live healthy lives without outgrowing their niche in our neighborhoods.
- Daily food and water.
- Monitoring for any health problems that may arise.
In caring for any outdoor colony, we recommend that several people be involved so that work is distributed, and so that the cats will have more than one person to depend on.
If you would like to help care for an outdoor cat colony one day or more per week, we can help you find someone in your area who needs help.
