The first two weeks of March have been incredibly busy for us — 26 cats fixed! A huge thank you as well to everyone that joined us for a hands-on trap training event in Beechwood!

In February we trapped, spayed, and neutered 34 cats! Most were released back to their colonies and caretakers and 3 friendly felines were taken to Kellers Kats to begin their indoor life: Campy, Pumpkin, and Socks 😻
January update: 34 cats entered our traps. And sunday Feb 5th was a big day for us! After a year of legwork, 15 cats were fixed at our first monthly spay/neuter clinic for free-roaming felines in the city.
Total number of cats we helped in November/December — 58. Total for 2022, more than 400!
October was as busy as ever for us and that’s ok because fall is the best time for TNR. Fifty-seven (57!) cats and kittens were trapped in October and 48 of these were spayed or neutered.
Forty-three cats entered our traps in September and 37 of these were spayed or neutered. More than half were females who will be spared the dangers of giving birth to kittens outdoors.
Fifty six (56!) cats and kittens spent time in our holding space in August.
In July, we trapped, picked up, netted, or corralled into carriers 46 felines both cats and kittens. Sometimes climbing into holes or under porches.
June was another busy month for our volunteer trappers. We helped a total of 58 cats and kittens in the city of Rochester. Many of the 42 “big” cats were returned to their kind feeders who watch out for them every day. These cats have now retired from the kitten-making business.
We TNR’d 27 cats and rescued 21 kittens from the city streets. This brings the 2022 total to 123 cats and 35 kittens.
