Feral cats. They sleep in our parks, military bases, alleyways, farmyards, barns, college campuses, and deserted buildings. Abandoned by their human families or simply lost, unsterilized housecats eventually band together in groups called colonies. Without human contact for a prolonged period, the colonies become feral. They make homes wherever they can find food, be it in dumpsters or under a boardwalk. Mothers teach their kittens to avoid humans and to defend themselves. And their numbers steadily increase, even if meager scraps are all the food to be had.
FERAL FEline Rescue ALliance is a non-profit organization focusing on a Trap-Neuter-Return and feral cat rescue program serving the Lynchburg, Virginia area. It is our mission to promote, foster, and develop humane nonlethal control programs for feral cats through sterilization programs that effectively reduce their numbers over a period of time.
