All proceeds go towards Operation TNR NorthEast Ohio



All profits go directly towards Operation TNR NorthEast Ohio in effort to trap, neuter and return / release the local stray & feral cats and to provide them with any necessary veterinary care at the time of being trapped, to save cats such as "Stiffy" and to prevent the suffering of others like him.

For more information about this program, please see our "official website" @ operationtnr.yolasite.com




This male cat is known as "Stiffy", he is indeed quite feral.

Stiffy is neutered as of June 13, 2012 thanks to those that kindly donated to our organization, thank you!

In effort to take care of our stray and feral cat population, I am starting my own TNR program with a friend for our area as we do not have one, but we need help. To be spayed / neutered, tattooed or tagged, and to be provided with any needed veterinary care upon arrival / capture, it would cost around $40 per cat.

What is a Feral Cat?


A feral cat is a descendant of a domesticated cat that has returned to the wild. It is distinguished from a stray cat, which is a pet cat that has been lost or abandoned, while feral cats are born in the wild; the offspring of a stray cat can be considered feral if born in the wild. @ wikipedia

What is TNR ?


TNR is the acronym for trap, neuter & release / return. It is an effective way in controlling feral cat populations and preventing unwanted litters.
Trap-Neuter-Return is the humane and effective approach for stray and feral cats. Now in practice for decades in the US after being proven in Europe, scientific studies show that Trap-Neuter-Return improves the lives of feral cats, improves their relationships with the people who live near them, and decreases the size of colonies over time. @ alleycat.org

Organizations like PETA & the Humane Society of the United States support the wholesale killing of all feral cats and both strongly oppose TNR programs.
