Building Humane Communities through Caregiver Support Programming that provides the resources Caregivers need to be successful in managing the cats in their care. These resources include trapping training, education, traps and trapping equipment loans, care for seriously ill or injured community cats, and trapping and transport for those unable to do so on their own. In 2025 we served 1,078 unique caregivers in 59 municipalities covering 17 counties.

Transforming the Landscape with Volunteer Support and Student Training Operation Catnip provides proactive programs and services aimed at targeting cats that are frequently overlooked or unseen. This approach prevents issues from becoming problems, mitigates or eliminates unseen suffering, and trains the next generation of humane healers. During 2025 a total of 161 unique veterinary students performed 5,997 spay-neuter surgeries and performed or scrubbed in on most of the 76 enucleations, 24 amputations, 2 entropion repairs, and 4 dental procedures under the watchful eye of DVM coaches. This level of experience is not provided by most veterinary universities.
