Aquaman actor and all-around HUNK Jason Momoa raised the bar when he did a sensational photo session for Esquire featuring kittens and cats. Almost as majestic as the cats themselves, Momoa is well-known for his role as the aquatic superhero as well as the husband you hated to love, Game of Throne's...

Step for a Pet was an amazing day and our amazing volunteers raised money for the shelter in general and our TNVR work! Not only did they work at the event but after they worked to trap 12 cats!

Volunteers on the TNVR Team are making a difference in the lives of community cats every day. Our TNVR Coordinators are ALWAYS in need of help - from making phone calls or entering information into the computer system to spending time in the field helping cat caretakers with trapping logistics or transporting trapped cats to local vets or animal shelters and everything in between.

Did you know that we started our TNVR Team at SJRAS in 2020? We have TNVR'd (Trap, neuter, vaccinate, return) over 200 community cats in our area just this year alone. While we are incredibly proud, we know that much work is still to be done.

Here is how you can help! We always need donations towards transport, feeding, traps, surgeries, as well as volunteers to help with trapping and transport!

You can find out more about our program here: https://southjerseyregionalanimalshelter.org/programs/tnvr/

Please join us in celebrating our team's 200th TNVR cat for 2022! This group has been working tirelessly to better the lives of cats in the area and we are excited to share more of these stories with you!

SJRAS TNVR Team is raising funds for a kitten who was trapped in urgent need of enucleation surgery for a ruptured eye! We have an appointment scheduled for early next week, but we need to raise funds to be able to help her. The surgery (including spay) will cost $200. Please consider making a donation or sharing to help!

Noel & Herald were TNVR kittens who were too nice to send back outside. They got adopted together last week. They are adjusting well. Have a great life. 😍

Happy Sunday

Gearing up for 9 appointments on Monday and Tuesday. Please consider donating to help us keep helping homeowner who need help but have limited funds.

01/04/2022

BVSPCA reached out to us yesterday assuring us they would be open and told us they had 2 more appointments available. So we reached out to a new property and they brought us 4 right away. Meet #8 Mocha, #9 Latte, #10 Cappuccino, and #11 Espresso. They are paying and brought us cat food. ☕️

We are also taking #12 Jericho and # 13 Piper that finish up 2 other properties.

We have a couple of properties trapping for Friday’s appointments. So we shouldn’t have a problem getting 4 more.

Starting out the year with some great trappers.

#1 Pudge - The last cat from our Mays Landing property. We had left the drop trap with the owner for 2 weeks so the cats would get used to eating under it. And when it was time, the owner pulled the rope and we helped her transfer her to a regular trap. . She microchips all of her cats and pays PFA directly.♥️. They have about 10 cats in their colony and all of them are fixed now. We started this property around December 13 and we are all done!🎉

#2 Tiny

#3 Lady

#4 Lucifer

#5 Scrawny

#6 Gigi

This makes 12 for this property. They’ve paid for some but with over 20 cats, it gets expensive. A lot of their cats have needed antibiotic shots which puts them at about $100 per cat. Any donations are greatly appreciated! They have about 7 more cats to go.

We are hoping we can make the trip to DE on Tuesday to get 4 more cats done. Fingers crossed the snow isn’t too bad. ❄️

Hopefully lots of cats are using the shelters that were donated and made. We could still use more containers to get out to a few more properties. 🏠

Our program helped over 115 properties this year. This wouldn’t have been possible without donations, transporters and supporters. Let’s make this bigger and better for next year.

Each appointment at People for Animals is $65. We have 5 appointments each week and every other Friday, we have 3 more.

At BVSPCA, we have 4 appointments each week at $25. We also need drivers to and from the clinic in New Castle, DE.

We can always use canned food (to feed the cats while they recover - 6-8 cans for each cat we fix), dry food for our properties, paper towels, cleaner, newspaper, towels, zip ties, and carabiner hooks.

We need someone to help with traps that don’t work anymore. It is very frustrating to be trapping and a cat go in and the trap won’t trip.

If anyone has traps that they aren’t using and would like to lend them to us, that would be great. Sometimes we have so many appointments and assists that we scramble for traps that work.

Seeking Community Cat Escorts! Our TNVR Team needs help with transportation this week and always. This week in particular we have 21 cats in need of transportation in order to be spayed and neutered. Please contact [email protected] if you can help with transportation.

Popcorn got moved to an extra bedroom today. He is the sweetest boy. He was plucked off of Broad Street, Millville with his friend Pickle (who already found his forever home). He is getting combo tested this week and is looking for a 🏠. I think he is estimated to be 1-2 years old.

And thank you to Pam Carman for the Chewy delivery. She sent us cans and a bag of food for one of our properties. We can’t continue doing this without donations of food and transporters.

11/29/2021

Our team desperately needs more transporters. We have standing appointments in Millville and Delaware every week. Without you we cannot continue to S/N the amount of cats we do every week. If you are interested please email me at [email protected]

21 cats this week TNV and ready to be returned today and tomorrow.

Happy Thanksgiving 🍽

This guy is from Port Elizabeth. He showed up on a property who is familiar with TNVR so they trapped him and brought him to me. We noticed that his ear may have been tipped. We weren’t sure and I was too afraid to release him without being positive so we sent him to PFA. He was fixed but they updated him on his shots and he will be headed back to Port Elizabeth. He was named Toby and he already has a heated house all ready for him.
