Come visit us, hang out & let’s chat about TNR/Rescue every Saturday afternoon at the PetSmart in West Covina! Located in the Eastland Shopping Center, we offer adoptable cats that have been pulled from the streets & socialized. Looking for their forever homes, these cats would love to bond with you!
We are also available to educate you on the benefits of TNR in your neighborhood. Feel free to sign up for free trap training and learn how to TNR. Our group performs TNR twice a week and we fixed/vaccinated/eartipped over 1,000 cats in 2015 alone!
We are always looking for people who are interested in volunteering to TNR and/or foster kittens we pull from the streets. Come by and say hello! ^..^
The Urban Pet in Silver Lake is throwing Luxe Paws’ 16 Silver Lake bottle baby kittens a baby shower THIS Sunday from 11 am – 1 pm!

Thank you The Urban Pet for supporting our neighborhood effort to SAVE homeless kittens and get the momma cats fixed!

Catnippers is an all-volunteer, bi-monthly program that allows individuals to work hands-on to spay and neuter approximately one hundred feral cats. This “MASH-style” clinic has been operated by FixNation for nearly 10 years without fail! Volunteers, both skilled veterinary professionals and unskilled animal lovers, are always welcome. The TNR Project really recommends that you volunteer at least once at one of these events. It is an invaluable source of education if you TNR! See how it’s done, how it works, the preparation all the way through to completion & recovery! Be a part of the solution! Everyone is welcome!
Best Friends Catnippers dates:
Sunday, May 15
Sunday, July 10
Sunday, September 18
Sunday, November 13
All clinics will be held at FixNation, 7680 Clybourn Ave., L.A., 91352.
An initial application and reservations are required in advance. Please do not bring cats to the clinic without a confirmed reservation. To complete a Feral Cat Application, click here. Please specify in the application that you are interested in Catnippers reservations.
If you are one of our regular caregivers and have been to either FixNation or Catnippers before with feral cats, please email Ivy Ramirez for reservations at appointments@fixnation.org.
Our Catnippers clinics are specifically dedicated to feral cats and kittens. All cats coming to the Catnippers clinics are required to be homeless, feral or stray and will be eartipped. Tame cats and kittens should be scheduled through FixNation during normal business hours.
Our Catnippers clinics are staffed entirely by volunteers, including volunteer licensed vets and vet techs. We are always on the lookout for new volunteers to join our team. If you are interested in volunteering for an upcoming Catnippers clinic, please email Carol Long, our Catnippers Volunteer Coordinator, at Carol@fixnation.org.
We welcome you to come by and see our adoptable street kittens & cats while we promote our passion of TNR (Trap.Neuter.Return.) to our communities! All of our kitties have been born in the backyards, the gutters and the streets or abandoned. They have been trapped, socialized and are ready to leave the streets behind for good to be your forever love.
The TNR Project is a volunteer-based grass roots group who truly believes that the fight with cat overpopulation begins on the streets. The majority of all cats who enter our shelter systems or overwhelm rescues come directly from the streets due to human error and neglect. We believe that with TNR we can end this cycle once and for all and truly take our shelters to the no-kill status people so desperately want, leaving euthanasia to only the truly suffering.
Please come learn about and support local TNR. You can join our efforts in the San Gabriel Valley and step up to be the change we all want to see. Step up and protect the voiceless. Get off the couch and do some good! We’d love to have you aboard!
Where: Unleashed Petco
Address: 614 W Huntington Dr, Monrovia, CA 91016
(Next to Trader Joe’s, Marshall’s and Bed, Bath & Beyond)
When: Saturdays from 1PM- 4PM

Hi!
For everyone who is trying to make a difference here in the San Gabriel Valley, anyone who needs to learn to TNR and to network to meet other local feeder & trappers….. we’ve TNR’d over 2000 cats & kittens from April 2015 to date. We have prevented over 3 million births. Won’t you join us?
Here is the flyer for The TNR Project Trap Training on Sunday, March 12th in Monrovia at 11:00AM. It is inserted here and attached so you can print it off. This is a FREE event. The link to register is also at the bottom of the email or you can go here to register so we have enough literature for everyone & a headcount:
- Email/share the flyer with everyone in your address books who’s affiliated with cat rescue/TNR
- Post on Yahoo Groups: LA Trappers, LA Feeders, SoCal Feline Rescue, other groups
- Share with everyone asking for help who calls in for trapping/TNR
- Share on social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, etc)
- Post in vets offices/starbucks/pet food stores (Centinela has community boards)
- Post on neighborhood pages: patch.com, nextdoor.com, facebook city pages
The more people that join, the more cities we have coverage in, the more teams we have access to and the larger the FREE vanpool becomes. As we all know, we are GROUND ZERO with feral cats. We keep them out of the shelters (lowering intake & euthanasia rates), foster & adopt into homes (and off the streets) and shrinking colonies while educating people. We can’t do it all alone…we NEED MORE HELP! This is the ONLY way to take shelters to no-kill status for cats.
I’m also asking our current group members to show up for the meet & greet. We can find out who is in our cities and teach tips/tricks. A lot of people have a ton of questions and I could really use the help from everyone who can. Come meet others who are making a difference and who can help!
Current Cities Being Helped By Volunteers Are:
Arcadia – Altadena – Alhambra – Avocado Heights – Azusa – Baldwin Park – Bradbury – Chino – Chino Hills – Covina – Duarte – Eagle Rock – El Monte – Glendale – Highland Park – Irwindale – La Puente- Pasadena – South Pasadena – Monrovia – Monterey Park – Ontario – Pomona – Pico Rivera – Placentia – Rosemead – Rowland Heights – San Gabriel – Sierra Madre – Temple City – West Covina – Whittier
The more people who join and learn to TNR, the more cities that can be helped thereby helping the kitties much quicker!
We also refer people needing TNR to Luxe Paws who services: Los Feliz, Echo Park & Silverlake. (Look them up on Facebook!)
