Find Help

Listed below are groups and/or individuals who have advised us they engage in TNR.

Think of these contacts as guides or mentors to help you with TNR for the cats you feed. The people on this list may not be able to come and do everything for you – please work collaboratively to get the job done!

Also note that we cannot guarantee these contacts abide by our Best Practices. Read Best Practices to familiarize yourself with them and be sure to ask your helper any questions you may have BEFORE you request their help - beyond basic information and equipment loan.

If you are looking for equipment to borrow, you can borrow from anywhere. You don’t need to be in the “Area Covered.”

Further, if you cannot find help below, please email us for assistance.
