HERE'S WHAT WE DO

URBAN CAT LEAGUE has several programs to benefit feral cats and their caretakers:

Provide email advice to help people find services and information to help feral cat colonies. Email us at urbancatleague@gmail.com.
We operate a Food Coop to provide the best quality food at the cheapest price for feral cat colony caretakers. See the link to our coop info page on the homepage.
We train people to socialize feral kittens and cats via workshops and email advice. Our film TOUGH LOVE, Socializing Feral Kittens," has been acclaimed and is offered to download from the website. See the link to info about socialization on our homepage
Our website offers extensive information about Winter Feral Cat Shelters. The shelters can be bought or built by do-it-yourself instructions. See the link to info from our homepage.

Our volunteers actively patrol their own neighborhoods to keep the feral colonies they caretake well controlled. They practice TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return) to spay/neuter the colony cats. This ends the cycle of reproduction and the nuisance behaviors that most often give feral cats a bad reputation. Yowling while mating, the smell of male cats spraying to mark territory and the birth of kittens ends once TNR is implemented. Mentoring of others is often possible through our network of volunteers and membership in the NYC Feral Cat Initiative. Via email, we help others to acquire the skills and find the services necessary to be able to control their own neighborhoods.
We maintain a PETFINDER.COM adoption webpage where rescued cats and kittens are available for adoption. 4 cats at a time are available to be seen in person for adoption at PETS NYC/METRO PETS located at 594 9th Avenue, btn 42-43rd Streets in Manhattan.
