The Feral Cat Foundation (FCF) is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization whose primary mission is to help people live with the feral and forgotten cats and kittens in the communities of Alameda and Contra Costa counties of northern California. We accomplish this through the nationally-recognized and effective method of "TNR" (trap-neuter-return). When possible, tame cats and kittens are adopted to loving homes. Cats that cannot be socialized are returned to the location where they were trapped and fed daily by caring volunteers. The lack of resources and a sanctuary prevent FCF from being able to take owner surrenders, rescue cats from shelters, or remove cats from neighborhoods. We invite you to read FCF's Commitment Statement and hope you enjoy your visit to our website.

If You Find Kittens

It is very important to assess the age of kittens BEFORE handling them. If you pick up a kitten that still has it's eyes closed, chances are the mother will reject the kitten. Babies this young have a very slim chance of surviving with bottle feeding. On the other hand, waiting until a kitten is 6 months old to attempt socialization is also asking for disaster. Here is a guide to age and appropriate action.

Polka-spot

Polka-spot just had his first birthday! Although full grown in size, he is still very much a kitten. He loves to run and play. He "sings" and purrs. And he is such a great cat, pet sitters fight over who gets to take care of him when his foster mommy goes away. Polka-spot was part of a litter of feral kittens caught last year. His mom and some of his siblings were too wild and had to be released after being spayed/neutered. But Polka-spot knew a good thing when he saw it and decided he much preferred being an indoor kitty. You can meet Polka-spot and his sister Orangecicle at our San Ramon adoption site .
