We were recently asked to trap at a factory loading dock in a busy area of the city. Two feral females were returned after spay but this boy, Seamus, who was known to be skittish outside, showed us he was quite the charmer once in the trap.

Our call list is constantly growing and we are working to get caught up with requests for spay/neuter. Thanks to the vets at Lollypop Farm and Whiskers to Tails we’ve been able to get 69 cats spayed/neutered and vaccinated since the beginning of the year.
These gorgeous kitties are now fixed and vaccinated and on the mend because of your donations.
Winter, we need to talk. These community kitties are ready for some sunshine!
After a recent eviction, an estimated 30 cats were left without their devoted feeder. We TNRd over 20 of these cats in the spring, but due to a series of unfortunate events, couldn’t continue trapping at this location. In the past week we trapped and fixed an additional six cats and they are being evaluated for temperament.
It’s too cold for TNR but we are still as busy as ever. We’ve brought in cats patiently waiting outdoors who seem well-suited to indoor-living and others clearly in need of medical attention. Earmites, wounds, flea allergy dermatitis, entropion, dental problems are all being addressed and these kitties are in various stages of treatment or healing.
Lots of worries over the past few weeks during the bitter cold as many colony cats didn’t emerge at their usual feeding time. So reassuring when we finally do see them. Water is the first stop for them when they come out for breakfast.
Thanks to our incredible volunteers, fosters, adopters, rescue partners, veterinary staff, colony caretakers, and donors, we improved the lives of 615 cats in 2024!
When Girl Scout Troop 60012 in Irondequoit wanted to help animals in need, we said “perfect timing” – we need more insulated shelters for the outdoor cats.
Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah from all of us at RocKats 🐱
