Here is another one of SCRUFF’s patients at our November 9, 2025 Spay Day at the Animal Protective Foundation (APF) at 53 Maple Ave in Schenectady. On that day we hosted 37 cats for Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR), which is a humane strategy for reducing the number of feral and stray “community cats” and improving the quality of life for cats, wildlife, and people.

The SCRUFF July 2025 Spay Day was a big success as we were able to spay/neuter 45 “community cats” in a humane manner. This was accomplished with through our partnership with the Animal Protective Foundation of Schenectady. We work closely with the APF to control the population of feral cats, and TNVR is how we are able to do that. There are a few Spay Days left in 2025, so please check out Calendar for date information. Discover important information about feral cats on our Feral Facts page.
