About us

Run solely by a dedicated team of volunteers, we offer a Trap, Neuter, Return (TNR) programme to help control and contain the cat population. There are many cat colonies in and around Essex and it is important that they are neutered to prevent further breeding and are health checked to prevent the spread of diseases such as Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and Feline Leukaemia Virus (FeLV).

Our Trap, Neuter, Return (TNR) volunteers, over the years have helped well over 1000 cats and have brought hundreds of feral kittens and domestic cats into other rescues care for socialising and rehoming.

Our team will often be working throughout the night in order to carry out the trapping of feral cats. Traps are monitored every 3-4 hours during the night and our team work closely with feral cat carers to ensure the welfare of the cats is never compromised.

Whilst we do not charge for our Trap, Neuter, Return service, each cat we help costs approximately £40 so we do ask for donations where possible.

Did you know, many feral cat colonies we help are in double digits? Recently, we have supported many 40+ feral cat colonies.

Feral cats have different needs to their domestic relations and it’s important that these needs are taken into consideration by those carrying out TNR work. After they have been neutered, cats are then released back to their colony location, providing the area is safe for them to do so.
