Every cat deserves a safer life. Starting with TNR.

A 100% volunteer-run rescue working the colonies of Prince William County — trapping, fixing and returning community cats, and giving their kittens a real shot at a home.

Know the difference

A feral cat surrendered to a shelter has nowhere to go back to.

“When you surrender a feral community cat to a shelter, the cat has no place to return to and cannot be handled or adopted — that’s a death sentence to a feral cat. Know the difference. Feral community cats belong where you trapped them. Be part of the solution instead of part of the problem.”

That’s the whole reason AFCC exists: to combat community cat overpopulation through targeted spay and neuter, and to make sure the cats already living outside get the care they deserve — right where their caregivers are.

What we do

Six programs, one all-volunteer team.

01

Trap-Neuter-Return

Humane trapping — including drop-trapping whole families — then spay or neuter, vaccination and ear-tipping. Cats go back to the community where they’re already fed and watched over by dedicated caregivers.

No cat left behind on a worked site.

02

Mama & Neonatal Rescue

Pregnant and nursing mamas and critical bottle-baby kittens come into foster care. Mama is spayed once her babies are weaned, then returns home; the kittens grow up socialised and adoptable.

Round-the-clock neonatal fostering.

Report a mama & babies

03

Emergency Medical Care

Sick and injured community cats get real veterinary care — diagnostics, surgery, and quarantine for panleukopenia cases — funded entirely by supporters, not grants or government money.

Donation-funded, every single case.

04

Carefully Matched Adoption

We don’t hold adoption events. Every application is reviewed in full and every placement includes a home visit, so the fit is right for the cat and the family. Meet-and-greets are for approved applicants.

Application & home visit required.

05

Fostering

Foster homes are the bottleneck on how many cats we can say yes to. Kittens, mamas and medical recoveries all need somewhere safe to land — we cover the supplies and the vetting.

Supplies & vet care provided.

06

Education & Advocacy

Most people want to help and reach for the wrong lever. We teach caregivers the difference between a feral community cat and a lost pet — and why TNR, not surrender, is the humane answer.

Free guidance for caregivers.

  • Fully vaccinated
  • Fully dewormed
  • FIV/FeLV combo tested
  • Microchipped

Applications are reviewed in full and include a home visit. Meet-and-greets are scheduled with approved applicants only.

There’s a cat outside right now waiting on somebody.

If you’re feeding strays, you’ve found kittens, or a cat in your neighbourhood needs help — tell us where. We’ll talk you through the next step, and where we can, we’ll bring the traps ourselves.
