Get Them Fixed!
Community Cats United, Inc. supports Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) as a humane method to reduce cat overpopulation. We also support spay and neuter prior to adoptions. Our goal is to humanely reduce, through spay and neuter, the number of community cats who are unowned, living outdoors and having litter after litter.
The use of adoption agreements/contracts and spay/neuter vouchers does NOT ensure that animals will be fixed. In fact, sadly they often are not.
Since we all need to do our part, we do not allow adoption/rehoming posts for animals without spay/neuter.
We are a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation.

Free Roaming Cats
Definitions:
-
A feral cat is unsocialized and fearful of people, which makes him a poor candidate for adoption.
-
A stray cat once lived in a home, but was lost or abandoned and forced to survive on his own. Strays can usually be quickly re-socialized and adopted, if homes are available.
-
A pet cat is a companion animal with an identifiable owner and home.
-
A free-roaming cat lives mainly outdoors and spends the majority of time unconfined.
-
A community cat is unowned and therefore belongs to the community.
What is TNVR ?
TNVR programs spay and neuter cats to reduce or eliminate reproduction, vaccinate cats against rabies and provide an ear tip (the universal sign of a vetted feral cat).
