The Nobody's Cats Foundation, PO Box 725, New Cumberland, PA 17070-0725
The Nobody’s Cats Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that promotes the adoption of Trap Neuter Return (TNR) as the preferred
strategy for humanely stabilizing and reducing free-roaming domestic feline populations in eight south-central Pennsylvania counties (Adams,
Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Lancaster, Lebanon, Perry, and York).  Its strategies include creating a culture of ownership of free-roaming cat
colonies, encouraging owner caretakers to implement benchmarked TNR standards of care, and providing a high volume of spay/neuter surgeries
through a dedicated surgery clinic for free-roaming cats.

The Clinic
We're moving forward with our surgery clinic! Most all of our equipment has arrived and been
installed, including washer and dryer, refrigerator, surgery and work tables, surgery lighting, and
cabinetry. We've welcomed Amy Wagner as our clinic manager and have begun the interviewing
process for our professional veterinary staff. Meanwhile, a number of local vets and techs have
agreed to help us out with a few small clinics so we can be sure we've crossed all the t's and
dotted all the i's. Our food bank will open in June conjunction with our first dry and canned cat food
drive and we've started loaning traps for TNRers using other services in the area. Keep posted!
