Who are Cat Crusaders of Franklin County?

Cat Crusaders works to reduce overpopulation of cats in Franklin County.  We stabilize barn cat colonies and reduce the number of free-roaming cats in the county through Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR).  Cat Crusaders of Franklin County works with local farmers, homeowners, and care-takers to help outdoor cats by providing spay-neuter services, vaccinations, and placement of adoptable cats and kittens through shelter partners. 

Our program focuses on activities that have the greatest life-saving impact. 

To make this work, we go to the cats.  Our team of volunteers works out in the community of Franklin County  to provide TNR services.  We see how outdoor cats struggle without our help: injuries from fighting, females carrying and nursing litter after litter, young kittens sick and dying from preventable illnesses.  

We also have witnessed the efforts of the caretakers of these cats. For years, farmers, townspeople and homeowners have cared for the unspayed/unneutered cats (and their litters) left behind.  Other caretakers, many of them elderly or on tight budgets, have been buying food and providing shelter. Without the support of Cat Crusaders these farmers and community caretakers would still be facing these challenges on their own.

We provide the TNR services that improve the lives of outdoor cats and support those who care for them.
