SCOOP
Who We Are:
SCOOP is a non-profit, 501(c)(3), organization that promotes the compassionate treatment and well being of the feline population. We are completely staffed by volunteers, and our board members receive no pay. All proceeds benefit our cats, including the daily and medical care of rescued cats and a no-cost spay/neuter community program.
Mission:
SCOOP is dedicated to reducing suffering and overpopulation among cats through non-lethal methods, as well as promoting compassion, dignity, and respect for all living beings.
Goals:
To continue to care for the rescued cats, many with special needs, currently maintained by SCOOP;
To find loving permanent homes for adoptable rescued cats;
To use education to heighten public awareness of, and compassion for, the millions of suffering homeless cats; and
To encourage, through a no-cost spay/neuter program, community involvement that will lessen suffering and reduce overpopulation among cats.
Rescue:
SCOOP does not have a shelter and depends on foster homes for the care of rescued cats. Many rescued cats are cared for permanently in the homes of board members. We cannot take pet cats, but will assist owners in finding a new home for their cat.
Collaboration:
SCOOP believes that by working together, much more can be accomplished. Therefore, all SCOOP board members and other volunteers work cooperatively with community cat rescue organizations and neighborhood rescuers.
Vision:
In the future, we hope that:
All cats will be cared for in loving homes, or in maintained and stable feral colonies;
The current solution of euthanasia will no longer be a method used for controlling cat overpopulation; and
Cat overpopulation will be successfully controlled through education of the public combined with low-cost and no-cost spay/neuter programs.
