What does Feral Cat Coalition do?

The Feral Cat Coalition of Oregon (FCCO) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the welfare of feral and stray cats through spay/neuter programs. Established in 1995, FCCO is the largest feral cat spay/neuter program in Oregon and one of the largest in the United States, having assisted over 150,000 cats since its founding. The organization serves more than 8,000 cats annually, focusing on compassionate care and education to reduce the population of homeless cats. FCCO offers high-quality, high-volume spay/neuter surgeries for feral and stray cats through a clinic in Portland and a mobile hospital that travels across Oregon and Southwest Washington. Their services are donation-based, with a suggested donation of $50 per cat. FCCO emphasizes its commitment to surgical services, without trapping, removing, or rehoming cats. The organization also engages the community through initiatives like the Annual Catio Tour, promoting responsible cat ownership and wildlife conservation.
