Twinkle and Sparkle update! ✨

After rescuing these brothers from dangerous shelter conditions, Alley Cat Allies worked with veterinarians to treat their severe upper respiratory infections. At first, we thought their eye issues were related to URI. Then we found the real culprit: eyelid agenesis.

Research proves it: Trap-Neuter-Return (#TNR) is the humane and effective approach for community cats!

We're actively compiling an index of TNR research to advocate for and defend TNR! It's all at your fingertips at alleycat.org/TNRResearch

Our team is out in the field in several states to prepare cats, like Rubble in West Virginia and the Atlantic City Boardwalk Cats, for the #ArcticBlast.

Before the heavy snow starts, we're building more winter-proof outdoor cat shelters and ensuring they're insulated with plenty of straw.

Feeding bans against community cats aren't only cruel, removing resources cats rely on, but also fail at their goal of making cats "disappear" from an area. And, they criminalize people for compassion.

That's why Alley Cat Allies takes action against feeding ban policies in any community.

Our expert anti-cruelty team not only educates and supports law enforcement and prosecutors, but also trains veterinary professionals on how to testify in cruelty cases.

Today, we led a training for veterinarians and vet techs on preparing expert reports and testimony in animal cruelty cases.

Alley Cat Allies' expert team is working across the country to change laws and policies to both prevent cruelty to cats and seek justice for cats who are neglected or abused. Because animal cruelty is not only abhorrent in and of itself, it is a threat to us all.

If neighbors express concerns about community cats, you can resolve them peacefully, and maybe inspire a new cat advocate!

Let them know who community cats are, that they are at home outdoors, and that #TNR is the only humane and effective approach. Our info at alleycat.org/TNR will help.

Alley Cat Allies' vision is a society in which justice, compassion, and nonviolence are the guiding principles for the treatment of cats and kittens.

There is never any justification for killing cats under any circumstances. We believe every cat deserves to live out his or her life to the fullest.

Alley Cat Allies works closely with veterinarians who share our commitment to protecting all cats: serving community cats with #TNR and standing against cruel practices like declawing.

Thank you to our vet allies—your expertise and dedication are absolutely invaluable in saving cats' lives!

Boardwalk Cat Star decided to play peek-a-boo with us this #Caturday morning!

Community cats may not be socialized to people, but they often form a bond with their caregivers. The Atlantic City Boardwalk Cats are always eager to greet our team!

No matter where a cat calls home, outdoors or indoors, he or she deserves to live a full and happy life free of the threat of inhumane policies.

Together, we're leading change in laws, policies, minds, and entire communities to make that vision a reality.

CAT FACT: The measure of a cat's level of comfort with people is called socialization. How much a cat can be socialized depends on factors like age.

Kittens have a critical window between the ages of 2 and 8 weeks where they learn rapidly. This is the key time to socialize them!

The key to protecting your family from disaster: Preparation. That includes the cats who are members of your family!

Share the Truth: Community cats don't belong in animal shelters!

Community cats are generally not socialized to people or adoptable. In shelters without lifesaving programs, these cats will be killed. In any shelter environment, community cats are highly stressed and very susceptible to disease.

Washington could be the next state in the U.S. to ban cruel cat declawing! 🐾

Today, Alley Cat Allies submitted testimony in support of House Bill 1904, which would outlaw declawing statewide in Washington.
