Meet Mischief (aka Missy)!
Little Missy was found by one of our volunteers hiding underneath an abandoned car all alone and scared to death. It took her several days to trap her because she kept crawling up into the engine thinking she was safe there. Time was of the essence because the abandoned car had been ticketed for removal from the streets by the police. Our volunteer won her over by visiting her every day and feeding her until she was able to trap her and bring her home.
Missy was so scared and confused, she spent the first few days hissing and spitting. Our volunteer used food, love, a warm bed, safety and other fosters to help her understand that she was safe. After those first few days, Missy began to look forward to her food and found out that she loved pets and then she learned what TOYS were! She became fast friends with another little unwanted kitten named Melodie, who was smaller than she was. She would play and pounce and run around the house being silly. Missy has turned into a wonderful, little girl who is very thankful and happy to have been rescued. She was lucky a volunteer skilled in TNR and socialization was the one who was able to pluck her up. The shelter wouldn't have been so kind.
Today, she is ready to go into a home of her own and we would love to see her get adopted with her bestie, Melodie. She does well with other cats and might get along ok with older kids who will have patience while she is acclimating into a new environment. Coyotes were all over where she was found, so she is not a happy camper with dogs around.

We would love to meet you! You can call any of our cats/kittens guardian fosters and schedule a time for a meet & greet. We can also be found at local PetSmart, Petco, Fundraisers and other adoption events! Check our website for locations & times! www.thetnrproject.org/events - Due to COVID, all events are currently canceled.
We always have cats & kittens in the cubicles located at the Unleashed Petco in Monrovia. We rotate cats & kittens every 1 1/2 weeks to let the public meet them as well as give them a break to run & play. If you have seen a kitty at the cubicles and they are not there if you come again, please contact us. Not all cats & kittens are adopted directly out of the cubicles and they just might be back with their foster parents.
If you would like to bring one of our beautiful kitties into your home, please contact our adoption coordinator with any & all questions. We are always looking for those who are willing to foster & volunteer when we pull our kitties from the streets. We do not pull from shelters. We TNR (Trap.Neuter.Return) the adults and foster as many as we have room for individually. TNR is the solution to the overpopulation problem and we are spreading the word along with walking the talk. We TNR 6,000-8,000 cats & kittens yearly since our inception in 2015.

More about this rescue
The TNR Project humanely & successfully performs TNR which stands for Trap-Neuter-Return weekly. We are a 100% grassroots community movement of self-help volunteers. TNR has been proven to stem community cat growth & overpopulation by controlling the numbers of unwanted cats & kittens on the streets safely & humanely. FACT: 80-90% of all shelter cats come from the streets.....by performing TNR, we are slowing that overflow and focused on keeping them out of the shelters.
We have TNR'd 18000+ cats & kittens since April 2015 and it's all be done by wonderful volunteers. All of the cats & kittens you see here on our site have been born on the streets, abandoned, left to die or worse. They were all community street cats before we stepped in to save them. We do not pull from shelters. We believe that by staying on the streets which is Ground Zero, we will make the difference people are so desperately hoping for....No-Kill Shelters.
What we prevent from being born on the streets doesn't end up in shelters, dying on the streets, suffering, being surrendered or abandoned, clogging the rescues or breeding several times a year with unwanted kittens. We want cats & kittens currently in rescues & shelters to have MORE time available to them to get into a great home...not euthanasia!
We walk the talk and do good where it's needed...on the streets! If you would like more information on TNR or learn how you can help your community cats, please visit: www.thetnrproject.org and fill out a contact us/join us form. Sterlize...Don't Euthanize! Thank you for rescuing!!
FACT: A mama cat can go into heat again when kittens are 4 weeks old
FACT: A kitten is of breeding age at 16 weeks old (4 months)
FACT: A female cat will go into heat every 2 weeks until mated
FACT: Once pregnant, a female cat will have that litter in 2 months (64 day gestation)
FACT: Once a male is neutered, it significantly decreases the yowling, spraying, fighting & wandering
FACT: Feral cats & kittens don't stand a chance at the shelters due to under-funding, lack of staff and fosters...they are almost 100% of the time euthanized
FACT: Only 2 out of 10 cats usually make it out of the shelters alive, which means 80% of cats entering shelters are euthanized...those are the social ones.
FACT: Black cats are 80% less likely to be adopted due to superstition? Black cats have some of the most intelligent, social personalities around!
DID YOU KNOW: Cats can be written off your taxes as natural pest control for your home or office? Don't use pesticides!
DID YOU KNOW: You can de-flea your property by using beneficial nematodes which are the natural predator to fleas?
DID YOU KNOW: The following animals carry fleas: squirrels, gophers, cats, dogs, coyotes, opossum, raccoon, skunk and others? Your flea infestation might not be from the cats...
DID YOU KNOW: Cats not only take care of rats & insects, they thwart gophers and squirrels?
DID YOU KNOW: It's not always cats who are pooping in your yard? Can you tell the difference between skunk, opossum, raccoon, coyote, dog and cat feces?.
