Alley Cat Allies is a super organized and efficient group. They provide online resources for TNR groups, and individuals can enlist to be a local resource for their own communities. Great way to meet people and help protect the abandoned cats.
I am so proud to donate regularly to this worthwhile organization - especially one that focuses on cats. Keep up the great work. Thank you! You are truly appreciated for all you do.
Ok I'm a big advocate of TNR. This is what I loved about this organization. We wanted to adopt a kitten to help with an aging only in house community (ours). Like how grandkids and grandparents go together. We established a connection with a foster family (across state lines) and they directed us towards the paperwork. I was honest about our house and literally after deflecting responses to us for a bit was told "we don't adopt that far away". Well never said you were coming to us; we planned on coming to you. So never could adopt through them and ended up adopted two barn/rural kittens who are happily snipped and up to date on shots. So please ACA stop sending requests for money to us. You wouldn't adopt out to a family that not only understands cats but can financially and medically make sure they are ok. And if you want the email chain I will 100% send them to you @ACA . In short I don't believe this is a bad charity but I believe the employees need to be vetted.
This is a wonderful group dedicated to protect our less than fortunate feral furry friends. When I joined Ally Cat Allies I learned how to effectively trap, neuter , return and how to provide shelters during inclement weather. They are my go to people when I have a question. I not only help the cats I am also doing a service for the community by cutting down on the amount of feral cats in our community. I started T/N/R 4 years ago. At the time there were kittens having kittens in a colony behind my house. After 3 years of continuous trapping I reached my goal of no more kittens in the colony. After trapping 30+ feral’s I haven’t seen a kitten in over a year.
In the past I had contacted the organization for information and assistance in neutering a feral cat colony. I sought help in either referring me to a low cost neutering clinic or assisting with the cost of trapping and neutering. Several attempts to elicit a response were ignored; however, for years afterwards they send out fundraising in an attempt to solicit donations for their organization. I will donate to a low cost neutering clinic, but never to an organization that did not have the decency to respond let alone offer advice or assistance.
The best, they won't turn anyone away, and they handled everything great. They handled the immediate feeding, and fostering of the tiny kitten I found. They also do great advocacy work and are the best kind of cat people. You won't find better cat people.
