Pet-Retention Program

CAT works to provide assistance and resources to low-income, elderly, or disabled pet owners so they may keep and care for their cats in their homes. If cats can stay with their owners, they can avoid unnecessary suffering, shelter surrender, or being euthanized.  In order to achieve our goal, we will: 


  • Respond to legitimate requests for assistance on a timely basis;
  • Assist identified pet owners with resources including veterinary care, food, litter, transportation, and education.

Colony Maintenance Program

CAT also works to maintain the health of of cats in feral colonies and small groups around central Virginia. Often, these colonies are already being looked after by the local community or persons, known as colony caretakers. CAT supports and maintains community cat colonies by:


  • Initiating TNVR practices to reduce and eventually eliminate the growth of the cat colony's size;
  • Working with colony caretaker(s) to understand the history of the colony and the community the colony resides in;
  • Supporting the colony caretaker(s) through a regular supply of cat food and, in the winter, volunteer-made insulated shelters;
  • Monitoring the health of the colony and providing veterinary care as necessary;
  • Placing friendly, adoptable cats and kittens in our Foster & Adopt program.

Education & Outreach Program

CAT seeks to increase awareness around the importance of the trap, neuter, vaccinate, and return (TNVR) process, along with the spaying and neutering of pet cats. Our volunteers have a wealth of knowledge and experience to help with various cat-related subjects.  We also hope to promote our organization so that those who need our assistance will be able to find us, and so we can receive support from the communities we work in. In order to achieve this goal, we will: 


  • Seek opportunities to make presentations on cat-related subjects in a variety of venues and locations;
  • Attend events in order to promote CAT and to educate on topics important to cat welfare;
  • Utilize social media outlets such as Facebook, Instagram, and our website to share information and grow our outreach;
  • Partner with similarly-aligned animal welfare organizations around central VA.
