The Feral Cat Foundation (FCF) is an
all-volunteer, non-profit organization whose primary mission is
to help people live with the feral and forgotten cats and kittens
in the communities of Alameda and Contra Costa counties of
northern California. We accomplish this through the
nationally-recognized and effective method of "TNR"
(trap-neuter-return). When possible, tame cats and kittens are
adopted to loving homes. Cats that cannot be socialized are
returned to the location where they were trapped and fed daily by
caring volunteers. The lack of resources and a sanctuary prevent
FCF from being able to take owner surrenders, rescue cats from
shelters, or remove cats from neighborhoods. We invite you to
read FCF's Commitment Statement
and hope you enjoy your visit to our website.

URGENT-Colony
Feeders Needed
We have lost several colony feeders due to health reasons and
moves. If you have an hour or two to spare each week and would
like to make a real difference, please check out our priority needs page.
Kitten Fosters Needed!
Kitten season is upon us and we desperately need fosters to house
the kittens until they are adopted into forever homes. Foster
families provide food, shelter, love and socializing. They also
transport the kitties to vet appointments and adoption events.
FCF pays all medical bills, provides medications, flea treatment,
support and guidance. If you have room in your home and your
heart, please call our hotline 925-829-9098.
If You Find Kittens
It is very important to assess the age of
kittens BEFORE handling them. If you pick up a kitten that still
has it's eyes closed, chances are the mother will reject the
kitten. Babies this young have a very slim chance of surviving
with bottle feeding. On the other hand, waiting until a kitten is
6 months old to attempt socialization is also asking for
disaster. Here is a guide to age and appropriate action.

| Luke |
 |
|
Luke, a beautiful black and white Tuxedo kitty, is about 11-12 mos old. His eyes are lovely green and his feet have white boots. He is VERY loving and such fun!. He is happy to cuddle, play with his toys or relax next to you while you're watching TV or working on the computer. He truly is a buddy type kitty who will bring a lot of love and joy to someone. He runs up to you the minute you walk into the room. He is full of life and makes you laugh.
Luke is neutered, had vaccinations, Revolution, FIV/FeLV tested (neg) and micro chipped.
He would most likely do well with another cat or even a kitty friendly dog. He is still a kitten in training and gets excited when playing..so no small children. Probably a child over 12 would be fine
For more info or to meet Luke, email theroyaltreatmentjudith@yahoo.com or
call (510) 653-2345.

| One-eyed Wonder!
Michelle lost her right eye to Herpes at 6 weeks old as did another kitten in the colony. It is questionable if she ever had sight in that eye. But it hasn't slowed her down. She doesn't know she is handicapped. She runs, jumps and plays, plays, plays. Whether she is chasing a ball, grabbing a ribbon or wrestling with a stuffed toy, she does it with enthusiasm, emitting chirps and mews as she plays. She also enjoys rough-housing with other kittens. Michelle has a very high energy level. She is looking for a forever home whose family will enjoy her antics because the adoption team at San Ramon Petco surely have. Michelle was born on or around April 18, 2014. She is black and white. She can be met at San Ramon Petco on Saturdays from 11 - 3. For more information, please call Donna at (925)820-1179. |
