Neighborhood Cats trained me to TNR (trap neuter return) in 2004 and they are still going strong. They literally wrote the book on the subject and are very much boots on the ground, executing large trapping projects throughout the boroughs. They also maintain a large trap bank in support of TNR. If you want to help the cats you see on the street this is the org to get your certification with.

Awesome work teaching ordinary folk how to help humanely & effectively help, and diminish, feral cat population, by learning how to safely catch cats so they can be neutered, spayed, given preventative vaccines, and returned to their community to live without fighting spraying & bringing more kittens ad infinitum. There IS a solution, and we can be a small part of it.

I receive emails from you about how people bring in very sick cats and how your organization helps them recover. I don't know where people bring them to, but any time I've replied to your emails, I never get a response. I'm a rescuer and I need some help with a poorly cat. I gave five stars because I know you educate the public about cat care and safety.

Do you take in strays

Hi, Debbie, no we don't take in cats - we work with community cats who mostly live outdoors and we help get them spayed or neutered and properly cared for.

Can you use barley straw in an outdoor shelter?

Gene Pfeiffer | Sep 26, 2021

You can use straw from barley, oats, rye, wheat, etc. We don't know which grain is best. Online, we found a couple of recommendations for wheat straw. But usually, people don't distinguish what type of straw they're using; it's just "straw." So you should be fine with barley straw if that's what's easily available.

Can diatomaceous earth food grade be sprinkled on food for feral's ?

Maureen Robert | Sep 26, 2020

Food grade diatomaceous earth (DE) is safe if it's ingested, but that's not typically how we use the product. We recommend it for flea control. If you can touch the cat, you can dust him with DE and rub it into their fur to kill fleas. You can also sprinkle it in areas where fleas are found, like cracks, crevices, holes in the wall, etc. We're not sure what, if any, benefit there would be from feeding DE to ferals. Hope that helps!
