Feline focused group looks to raise funds

After taking care of thousands of feral cats for 17 years, Town Cats needs help.

The organization is launching several fundraisers, including a yard sale and a quarter auction, to help raise money to cover medical and food expenses for feral cats in their care.

“This group feeds more than 200 feral cats daily. In the past, they’ve used grants, donations and their own money,” said Town Cat fundraising coordinator Robyn Baker. “But there’s cases of emergency surgeries or cesarean sections, and those aren’t covered by grants. We started fundraising to take care of those needs.”

Town Cats is a nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing and tending to the feral cat population. The organization started in 1998 when several residents noticed that many summer visitors would leave behind cats without food or shelter. Volunteers started banding together to humanely trap, neuter/spay and release the cats back into Worcester County.
