Community Cat Caretakers

Community cat caretakers are the backbone of any successful TNVR program. Most caretakers start off simply as concerned citizens who find a hungry cat on their doorstep. They do the compassionate thing and feed the cat. Unfortunately, many free-roaming cat “feeders” do not realize until too late that feeding a cat, even a cat they do not own, brings with it an additional level of responsibility.  This responsibility entails spaying/neutering the cat, providing shelter to the cat, and addressing any problems the cat creates involving neighbors.

PGCCA is dedicated to educating, assisting and empowering community cat “feeders” to transform them into responsible community cat “caretakers.” 

Community cat caretakers play a critical roll in a successful TNVR program as these are the people providing daily care to the free-roaming cats, monitoring their health, and tracking their numbers. In short, they do the day-to-day work of making sure these outdoor cats live a quality existence.
