Common Questions
Before You Reach Out
I found a stray cat. What should I do?
First, observe whether the cat appears injured or in immediate danger. If so, contact local animal control. For cats that appear healthy but unowned, reach out to us and we can advise on next steps including whether TNR may be appropriate.
Do you accept donations of supplies?
We primarily fundraise through GoFundMe to cover trapping equipment, vet costs, and housing supplies. If you have specific supplies to donate, reach out via the contact form and we'll let you know what we currently need.
