We’re Saving Cats with National Feral Cat Day Actions

A veterinarian spays a community cat at the National Feral Cat Day action of New Leash on Life in Tennessee.

Yesterday, Alley Cat Allies was on the ground in Lebanon, Tennessee, to support the National Feral Cat Day action of New Leash on Life. The incredible result: 100+ cats and kittens were spayed or neutered! Cats and kittens like Blue and Muffin were also vaccinated, received any needed medical care and, if they were community cats who live outdoors, were eartipped as part of Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR).

The cats’ caregivers also went home with no-cost cat food and Alley Cat Allies educational materials.

Today we’re doing it all again in Sumner County, Tennessee, with Sumner Spay Neuter Alliance! Overall, 200+ cats and kittens, both companion and community cats, from at least 15 Tennessee counties will be reached with critical surgeries—and many more through cat food resources.

Both Tennessee communities also work closely together throughout the year to save cats’ lives. This kind of united community work is what it means to respect that Cats Are Community.

We can’t wait to see what National Feral Cat Day action you take! You can find ideas here. Be sure to post about your action on social media and tag with #GlobalCatDay, #NationalFeralCatDay, and #CatsAreCommunity!

Thank You for Standing with Cats, Today and Every Day

Our unique relationships with cats cross every border. Love for cats is a universal language in itself. But even with so much history with us, cats still face cruel threats to their lives every day. We can change the world for them, together, because Cats Are Community.

Let’s make Global Cat Day and National Feral Cat Day 2024 the biggest and best yet. Thank you for standing with Alley Cat Allies for the cats!
