![]() Feral cats live outdoors in groups known as colonies. INFORMATION ABOUT FERAL CATS WHAT IS A FERAL CAT?Ī feral cat is an outdoor cat that has not been socialized by people and requires "trapping" to bring it to a veterinary facility. This is done in case they are trapped a second time. You should also know that all feral cats having spay/neuter surgeries under this program have their right ear tipped. It is imperative that you contact us prior to trapping any feral cats if you want to participate in this program. Call (559) 683- 1266 and leave a message on the spay/neuter line or email and a volunteer will contact you with information on how our program works. The EMCSPCA, working with local vets, pays for the entire cost of surgeries for ferals. Many national organizations, such as ASPCA, HSUS and Alley Cat Allies have studied feral cat populations and have found that especially in rural areas, the best programs trap, spay or neuter, and return feral cats to their location. Feral cats (wild cats that cannot be handled) are not generally adoptable. ![]() In order to help prevent births of unwanted cats, the Eastern Madera County SPCA provides a Trap-Neuter-Return program for feral cats in the Eastern Madera County foothill communities. ![]()
