  • Take photos of cats -- for science!

    This summer, we're conducting an outdoor cat survey or census in partnership with Kitizen Science. This is to better understand the size of the outdoor cat population in addition to creating a metric to measure the success of TNR programs like the one Tree House offers!

    We're looking for volunteers to help between May 19 - June 29! Working in pairs (sign up with a friend!), volunteers will follow assigned routes in Humboldt Park from 5:30-8 pm.

    Your only task? To take photos of any and every outdoor cat you see and upload them using the Kitizen Science app.
