Community Cats of Charlotte

Community Cats of Charlotte is an all volunteer, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to helping Charlotte County's homeless cat population. Through no fault of their own, stray, abandoned, and feral cats exist in our county. Estimates put their number at 30,000. Community Cats of Charlotte is the only organization in Charlotte County with this purpose. Our plan is effective, long term, and humane. OUR MISSION is to improve the lives of feral and homeless cats living in Charlotte County by humanely stopping their breeding through a no-cost Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program. With TNR, the cats are humanely trapped, spayed/neutered, vaccinated against Rabies, left ear tipped, and returned to their original location. The breeding stops and the behaviors associated with mating (spraying, fighting, yowling) stops. Each 10 cats sterilized with this program prevents the birth of 150 additional cats in the first year after spaying and neutering. With perseverance, we will make a difference for the cats and the community.
