RE Shelter Building Sessions - We're officially done for the season and wanted to thank everyone who helped out! This season alone we built 210 shelters!! Please keep us in mind for the fall when we start up again.
Toronto Street Cats is a volunteer program run through the Toronto Humane Society.
Our mission is to improve the lives of Toronto's homeless cats by offering free spay/neuter services and overwintering shelters to feral colony caretakers. We are also working to increase public awareness about Toronto's homeless cat population and the importance of spay/neuter and trap/neuter/return (TNR).
We are part of the Toronto Feral Cat TNR Coalition, working together to implement strategic TNR programs to sterilize Toronto's feral cats, decrease shelter intake and reduce euthanasia rates.
