13th St Cat Rescue Charity Profile

13th Street Cats is a small but determined group of volunteers, lead by Joanne, serving the Northside area of San Jose since 2005 (officially).

We are dedicated to improving the lives of feral and social cats and in controlling the population by the use of TNR. Trap-Neuter-Return is an effective, internationally recognized program by which cats are trapped, vaccinated, spayed or neutered and returned to their original location to be cared for. Kittens that can be socialized are taken into foster care and are then put up for adoption.

13th St Cat Rescue Volunteer Information

We need animal lovers of all ages and backgrounds. We strongly encourage and hope that individuals will volunteer on a regular basis. Many opportunities are available to help save lives:

We need volunteers to assist with Trap-Neuter-Return in which we work to maintain feral cat populations by trapping feral cats, having them fixed and vaccinated and then returned to their location to live out their lives. But where do cats like these come from? Born outside, these unsterilized cats eventually form colonies, making their home wherever they can find food. Tomcats prowl for mates, females become pregnant, and the cycle of reproduction continues. Learn more about this smart, compassionate, proven method of population control, and give a gift of time or money. TNR is a large part of our work, and we would like more people who are available in the mornings to trap.
