Help Stabilize and Save Hundreds of Abandoned & Feral Cats
One meal. One surgery. One life changed.
Hundreds of abandoned cats are struggling to survive in colonies across the greater Quincy region. Many were once pets but were left behind when people moved or passed away. With no affordable spay/neuter services available locally, the population is exploding—and a small group of volunteers is racing to stop the suffering.
Across the greater Quincy and West Quincy area, hundreds of abandoned and displaced cats are struggling to survive in unmanaged colonies. What began as isolated situations has grown into a community-wide crisis.
Cats are being left behind when people move or pass away. Vacant homes and truck stops have become dumping grounds for unwanted animals. At the same time, affordable spay/neuter services have nearly disappeared—the local Humane Society has been without a staff veterinarian for more than two years. As a result, the population continues to explode
Many of these cats are not truly feral. They are abandoned pets who now rely entirely on a small group of community volunteers for food and survival. The scale of the problem has grown beyond what a few individuals can sustain alone.
What We Are Doing
Our goal is population stabilization and long-term reduction, not just temporary feeding.
We are working to:
• Trap, spay/neuter, and vaccinate cats through humane TNR (Trap–Neuter–Return)
• Provide consistent food and care to stabilize colonies
• Socialize and rehome adoptable cats whenever possible
Why Help Is Urgent
Among the cats currently identified are:
• Injured cats needing veterinary care
• Unspayed females actively producing litters
• Friendly abandoned cats that could be rehomed
• True feral cats needing TNR
Because Quincy currently lacks low-cost spay/neuter services, every surgery requires out-of-town travel, increasing costs and limiting how many cats can be helped.
Local rescues are already at capacity, leaving grassroots community efforts as the only option.
How Donations Help
Your donation will help fund:
• Spay and neuter surgeries
• Emergency veterinary care
• Vaccinations and basic medical treatment
This effort is 100% volunteer-run and 100% of all funds go directly toward care for the cats.
Receipts are posted for full transparency.
