Our Happy Tails



We need your support to continue helping reduce the numbers of free roaming cats in Clinton, Franklin and Essex county. Contributions are the only funds we receive & we hope to continue to help more animals this year! Thank you again for all that the local communites have done to keep our not-for-profit going strong! We need your help to put an end to animal cruelty in this area! You can help by writing your own letters regarding your opinion or situations you may have seen, in which there was nothing done to help these poor cats that are being abused or abandoned.!! There are laws for cats and we need to make sure these laws are being enforced here in Clinton, Essex, and Franklin counties. Please send your letters to: St. John Feral Cat Fund, P.O. Box 2884, Plattsburgh, NY 12901.

About us

Our organization advocates non-lethal feline population control.  We raise public awareness of this issue by implementing low-cost veterinary services for feral/stray/abandoned cats.  We conduct fundraising events to support local initiatives for these cats as well as educating communities about Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR).

The SFCF is dedicated to helping homeless cats by controlling their population without killing them!  We do not relocate cats and we are not a shelter.  We do not accept or pick up animals.  The SFCF practices a method referred to as:  Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR).  It is a full management plan that is now being used throughout the country, in which stray & feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns & rural areas are humanely trapped, evaluated, vaccinated, sterilized & ear tipped for identification by veterinarians.  With help from volunteers, when foster homes are available, kittens and tamed cats are adopted into good homes.  Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers.  As a result, cats’ lives are spared, their living conditions improve and their numbers decrease over time.  It is a humane & more cost effective solution than euthanasia!

Since July of 2002, The St. John Feral Cat Fund has spayed/neutered over 2,000 cats & adopted out over 800 cats & kittens!  Donations are always needed & go toward vet services, shelter, food, supplies and fostering of homeless cats. Please see below for more info.
