About Us

We are Forgotten Felines of Sonoma County

Our Mission

Forgotten Felines of Sonoma County is dedicated to protecting and improving the lives of feral cats through local spay/neuter programs, placement services, community outreach and nationwide education.

Our Vision

Forgotten Felines of Sonoma County is committed to a world where all animals are treated with compassion and respect. We are dedicated to elevating the quality of life of unowned cats and ending the pain and suffering of all cats living among us.

Our Primary Goals

1. Spay/Neuter Unowned Felines &
Colony Management
2. Pull “adoptable” cats and “tameable” kittens from colonies for adoption
3. Educate/Assist the public with all aspects of Wild Cat Colony Management

Forgotten Felines of Sonoma County practices the TNR method of unowned/wild cat control: Trap, Neuter, Return.

Through this method, cats are humanely trapped, given a wellness medical check, receive vaccinations, are microchipped, altered, then returned to their colony where they are fed and watered daily. Tame, adoptable cats are placed into our Adoption Program. Depending on foster availability, we may be able to take unowned kittens for socialization and adoption.

TNR Works

It is our experience that the TNR method of wild/unowned feline control is the only long-term, humane solution for controlling the overpopulation of cats. With proactive spay/neuter practices and proper colony management, unowned cats do not suffer and can live long past the expected mortality rate for cats who are just left to fend for themselves in the wild. We are still caring for cats in colonies that were first altered when our program began in 1990.
