Cats Action Team in Action

We are a charitable organization dedicated to transforming the lives of cats and kittens facing difficult circumstances. Our programs focus on providing support of TNR services and rescue coordination for those in the most critical need by working together with our community partners, we aim to create a brighter future for those in need.

We need foster homes, we need food for colony cats, we need temporary homes for both post op recovery and assessments of demeanor to determine if indoor home or return to the outside is the best fit for the kitty. When returned we need volunteer colony feeders.

“Why foster?” 

Fostering  is one of THE biggest needs for every TNR group and rescue  organization. That is because feral cats need to be held temporarily  while they go through their surgery process and are then released back  to their colony, and cats that turn out to be tame need a foster  placement to be assessed, spayed/neutered, receive medical care, and go  through a vetting process to be put up for adoption. We never want to  return a tame cat to the streets to live such a hard life. All the  kittens we find on a TNR job need a foster placement to be socialized  for future adoption. If they aren’t weaned from their moms yet, these  kittens need bottle feeding. So, trapping itself is only one part of the  job. The other part is having people who can hold cats temporarily (a  matter of days) or weeks or months while we find rescues who can intake  them and start to get them ready for adoption. This work is incredibly  rewarding. To save a kitten’s life and see them in a forever home, or to  help an adult cat who had a respiratory infection or needed dental  surgery, or even had no illness present but as an adult was starved for  love and was perhaps malnourished physically. That cat is now safe and  now loved; it’s a wonderful feeling and a true act of compassion.
