FRIENDLY TABBY CAT SIGHTING!
Marinette, WI near Hancock St.
Even though they’re feral and terrified of humans, we know they’re still special! 🩵
Our youngest members of the main colony we care for are over a year old now and they were the last kittens that were born outside. Now everyone (15+) from the colony is spayed/neutered thanks to your support!
Merlin (older tabby) was the last one to get fixed! 🧙🏼♂️
Merlin finally got neutered last week! 😻 This means the entire colony is TNR’d!
Merlin was finally trapped & neutered last week thanks to Cats Anonymous Inc’s voucher program and Oak View Veterinary Hospital 💕. He’s back with his lady gang Echo & Nyx 😻😻😻

Early morning shenanigans feat. 2 unaltered male teenagers who were living off a highway behind a gas station in Menominee, MI for weeks 🥺💕 #catrescue #fostercats
What a guy! 😍 Merlin stopped in on his (spayed) girls Echo and Nyx during the storm 🥹 #tnr #workingcats #tnrworks #feralcatsneedlovetoo
Echo ❤️ Merlin!
Echo was born outside and is terrified of humans, so she was trapped, spayed, vaccinated and released back to this property to control the rodent population.
She has an obvious deep bond with her colonymates like Merlin 🧙🏼♂️😻
** sound on for her adorable chirps! **
Help us feed this colony of over 10 TNR’d cats!

Good morning from Mallow! 😻
Thackery and Wally are a BONDED pair for a reason 😍 #fivcat #oneeyedcat #fostercats
Melody (black), Thackery (grey) & Rhymes (tabby) are OBSESSED with their fishing game 😻
All 3 were living outside in Menominee (and none were fixed 🙀)
Melody has an approved application (yay!), but Thackery has been waiting for a long time 😿

Rhymes likes dogs and cats but doesn’t like to be touched by humans. He’s a special one!
“Feels like 20 below zero” 😨
We have been monitoring our main colony closely so they have the best chance at surviving though this horrible weather.
This feral colony had numerous kittens born into it over the years. However, after spaying all the females and having four male ferals fixed (and bringing the forgotten friendly cats inside), the reproduction stopped. We just have to trap our sneaky boys Merlin, Adonis and a new visitor ☹️
This colony now has a stable population that shares the resources we can offer them because there aren’t homes for the thousands of feral cats who are trying to survive outside. It’s the best that we can do 😥
Thank you Menominee Animal Shelter for accepting some of the past kittens who wouldn’t be alive today if Good Samaritans hadn’t stepped in to catch them at a local gas station parking lot over the years 🥺
Our ferals all have individual personalities and have very special relationships with each other. They are all VERY bonded to each other and their environment.
