Are you looking for a way to help feral cats and caregivers alike?


We are in need of Veterinarians who are sympathetic to the plight of feral cats and would be willing to participate in our TNR program to help reduce the overpopulation of feral and stray cats on LI. 

Veterinarians are the pivotal point in resolving this problem.  Without spaying and neutering, propagation and suffering thrive.

If you would like to join our network of participating low cost Veterinarians for feral cats, please contact us for more information.  You will be helping to resolve a widespread problem, carrying out an exemplary community service and increasing your client base as kittens are adopted and strays are taken in as pets, these become functional lifelong clients for your practice.
