What We Do

Community Cat Advocats is a small, local organizations with limited resources and we must maintain our focus on Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return and the welfare of community cats in the Winchester, Virginia area.

Therefore, our activities are limited to:

• Supporting Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return as the best, long-term solution for controlling feral and free-roaming community cat overpopulation because the process stabilizes the population, improves the lives of cats, addresses neighborhood concerns and saves taxpayers money while embracing the principles of a caring community.
   
• Supporting community cat colony caregivers through outreach, education, advocacy and access to low-cost spay/neuter providers and veterinary services.
   
• Working toward making Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return a program that is fully understood, accepted, supported and practiced in the jurisdictions, animal welfare organizations, businesses and individuals in the Winchester, Virginia area.

• Accept cats for adoption
   
• Relocate cats
   
• Participate in trapping cats for euthanasia unless health conditions warrant the need
   
• Participate in trapping cats for release to animal shelters
   
• Assist with owned cats.
