Four Directions Community Cat Program southern Utah

FDCCP southern Utah: This unique program works with over 38 urban and rural communities in southern Utah. Best Friends clinic for spay/neuter and five veterinarians’ clinics around S. Utah participate in the low cost S/N program. We have started six new relocation colonies re-homing feral cats that otherwise would have been euthanized because they are not suitable for living as house cats.

FixNation Los Angeles CA

We are also working in Los Angeles, CA with FixNation, a nonprofit clinic that cares mainly for feral and stray cats but also operates as a low cost spay/neuter clinic in Los Angeles. The first of its kind in the United States, this clinic is ground breaking and will lead the way as a model for community cat clinics around the country. The clinic works with local groups and individuals to battle the overpopulation of cats by providing free spay/neuter services for feral and stray cats as well as shots and health checks. In addition, FixNation and Best Friends are working together to lower the shelter euthanasia rates in East Valley—an impoverished area of Los Angeles with high euthanasia rates. This program will target the East Valley residents offering TNR as an alternative to trap and kill. In the first year of the program, we estimate to reduce intake statistics at the East Valley shelter by five percent.

First Coast No More Homeless Pets in Jacksonville, Florida has ended the killing of community cats.

The Feral Freedom Program is collaboration between the city of Jacksonville, First Coast No More Homeless Pets (FCNMHP), Jacksonville Humane Society and Best Friends Animal Society. The cats that arrive to the shelter in traps are turned over to FCNMHP to be spay/neutered then returned to their original trap location. This program is being adopted by other communities as a way to save lives and tax payer dollars.
