Salem's Community Cats

Cat rescue in Salem, NY

Salem's Community Cats is committed to improving the lives of feral, stray and owned cats, stopping the growth of the feral population through TNR, and finding every adoptable cat a loving, permanent home.

SCC was started as a Trap-Neuter-Return group to help control the feral cat population in and around the village of Salem, NY. Since being formed in the fall of 2019, we have expanded our services to include fostering and re-homing stray cats and kittens, helping provide spay and neuter services for financially strapped cat owners, and fostering mother cats with their kittens and placing the kittens into suitable homes.

Since our formation in 2019, we have helped over 1,000 cats!

We are 100% volunteer staffed and funded entirely by donations. We are a 501 (c)(3) non-profit, recognized by New York State as a public charity.
