Whether you have an hour, a day, a month, or a year, we’re grateful for what you can give. Here are some ways you can donate time to help CC4C.

Be a Foster Home

Throughout the year, we come across abandoned cats and kittens that need a safe place foster home. Kittens need a safe place to grow up, or a mama kitty and her litter  need a warm place out of the elements and threats outside. Can you provide a warm, safe shelter and lots of love as they await their forever homes? All supplies, medical care, and vaccinations are provided by CC4C. You provide food and litter and love. A foster program coordinator will help support you as you care for these needy kitties. See our Fostering page for more information. Typical fostering commitments last 1 to 4 months, depending on the age and socialization when you get the kitty.

Foster a Feral!

All year long we come across feral and semi-feral cats that can be socialized and adopted. Can you make a long-term commitment to rehabilitate a “cat in training” by loving, petting, and soothing a cat that needs to learn how to love?

Spay/Neuter Trapping – Ferals

We always need more trapping support to help spay and neuter the ever-growing population of feral cats in our county. If you’re interested in learning how to become a trapper, we will provide the equipment and teach you how to trap. Once the cat is captured, they will need to be transported to their spay/neuter surgery, which will be coordinated through CC4C, and picked up following the surgery and brought home to recover.  (See our Trap-Neuter-Return page for more information.)

Spay/Neuter Recovery – Ferals

After feral cats are trapped and spayed/neutered, they will need a safe, warm location where they can recover after surgery. After several days of healing they can be returned back to their colony after their surgery. Males typically require 2-3 days and females 5-7 days. Other medical issues may take longer. This is a great way to help feral cats by allowing them time to heal before going back out into the elements where they have to fend for themselves. (See our Trap-Neuter-Return and Fostering pages for more information.)
