Alley Cat Allies is the wonderful national organization based out of Maryland that is at the forefront of the humane Trap-Neuter-Return program for feral cats. Instead of being captured and euthanized, the cats are captured, neutered, vaccinated and returned to the wild so that the population is stabilized. Alley Cat Allies have a strong presence in our area with the Boardwalk Cats program.
On Saturday, Aug. 1, kittens and other young cats from the Boardwalk Cats program will be looking for a new home at the Alley Cat Allies Adoption and Outreach Fair, 11am-4pm at the Petco store at 1335 Hooper Ave. in Toms River. As part of the Trap-Neuter-Return program officially sanctioned by the city and carried out by Alley Cat Allies and volunteers, feral cats who live at the boardwalk are humanely trapped, neutered, and vaccinated before being returned to their outdoor homes, where they receive regular food and water.
