As the world leader in volunteerism we feel a responsibility to unite our broader community, and to use this moment to become stronger.
See below to participate in our Impact Sector survey, access our COVID-19 Resource Hub, and explore our growing directory of COVID-19-specific and virtual volunteering opportunities.
Town Cats is part of a county-wide initiative to help save feral cats. Feral Freedom Volunteers will transport feral cats who have been spayed/neutered from SanJoseAnimalCare and Services back to their original colony location within Santa Clara County. Training will be provided.
Shifts occur once a week to every other week. Duration depends on how many cats require transport that same day.
Volunteers must be physically able to carry an animal trap or cat carrier over short distances. Must have a valid driver’s license and a car.
"Saving one animal won’t change the world, but it will change the world for that one animal."
Town Cats is a non-profit volunteer-based no-kill cat and kitten adoption center/shelter and feral cat advocacy organization dedicated to enriching the lives of homeless cats and kittens in the south Santa Clara county through an aggressive rescue and adoption program, TNR (trap, neuter, return), and public education.
Description
Town Cats works to alleviate the suffering of stray, abandoned, unwanted, and feral cats in Santa Clara County. We sponsor innovative programs to help cats in traditional shelters in our county, as well as community cats who live outdoors. We educate the public about the cat overpopulation problem, and provide people with the tools to become part of the solution. Town Cats supports individuals who want to help through aggressive spay/neuter and cat care programs, and by providing vet care and cat food to low income cat guardians, fosters, or owners. We also find permanent, safe, and loving homes for the homeless house cats and kittens in our care.
