Sponsor a Feral Cat Colony


Every day in Central Texas, feral cats rely on us for something incredibly simple — and incredibly life-saving: food, safety, and stability. When you sponsor a feral cat colony for 2026, you become the reason a group of cats doesn’t go hungry, doesn’t reproduce endlessly, and doesn’t fall through the cracks. These cats don’t have homes — but they do have us. And with your help, they’ll have you, too.


Your sponsorship directly supports:

  • 🐱 Daily food for managed feral colonies
  • 🏥 Veterinary care for illness or injury
  • ✂️ Spay/neuter services to prevent suffering and overpopulation
  • 💜 Ongoing monitoring, feeding, and protection by CTFR volunteers


This is not a one-time rescue. This is a long-term commitment — and it works.


Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is the only humane and effective way to reduce feral cat populations. But TNR alone isn’t enough. These cats need continued care after surgery — and that’s where sponsorship makes all the difference.


Without consistent support:

  • Cats go hungry
  • Medical issues go untreated
  • Colonies spiral out of control


With sponsorship:

  • Cats stay healthy
  • Populations stabilize
  • Communities improve
  • Lives are protected


When you sponsor a colony, you’re not just donating — you’re standing guard for cats who cannot advocate for themselves.


You are saying: “You matter. You are not forgotten. We will keep showing up.”

Central Texas Feline Rescue is entirely volunteer-run. Every dollar you give goes directly to food, medical care, and lifesaving services for the cats who need it most.

​This is Nakita she was rescued when her owners just moved and didn't take her. She lived under a shed for weeks. Until she started coming to one of our volunteers for food. And the rest is history.
Nakita now lives in high-rise condo in Austin with a very nice lady from Afghanistan.
We have a lot of good endings. I named her Nakita after the Elton John song. It is no longer cold in Nakita's world.

Ivan was found at one of our feeding sites.  Presented himself as a very friendly boy probably a recent dump.  People see we are feeding cats and they think it's a good idea to abandon their pet. 
No microchip, no luck finding an owner.  He is a precious boy very friendly and engaging personality.  Once he is neutered he will be available for adoption.

This magical creature appeared in my front yard about 6 months ago. He was always around the cats next-door and did not want anything to do with me. After checking around, I realized he must be a stray. I started feeding him. Each morning, and a month or so later, he was always waiting at the spot in the photo. After breakfast and dinner, he would disappear, only to show up the next day in his "spot." 
Mission - Capture "Buddy." - Mission Impossible. He was so clever. He knew the trap when he saw it and politely declined to enter the depths of its steel enclosure. 
Buddy 1 - Trap/Meribeth 0
The city was about to have a cold front with the possibility of snow and freezing temperatures. Mission - Capture Buddy to make sure he was not caught in the freezing temps.
Night 1 - No Buddy. Sunday before the freeze, after missing a meal, Buddy appeared in his spot. I decided to tie a string to the front enclosure door, and place the food in the enclosure far enough away from the door. (Buddy never came in the enclosure) The food was too tempting and in came Buddy and slam went the door. Buddy stayed in a heated cat house in the front enclosure for one week. I noticed it was stressful at night (Night Visitors, cats, etc.) Because he started visiting the front door I decided to open the window that leads to the enclosure, and the rest is how Buddy became a cat who normally slept in the gutters, to a room with his bed. Buddy will take time, but one day I hope he realizes how safe and secure living in a house

A night of trapping leads to an early morning trip to Austin Humane Society. It was a deluge this morning, but I made sure the cats didn't get wet LOL. Thanks to our trapper elites, Johnathan, Cassie, Katie and Myself we caught 11.
A donation to Amplify Early Giving would be astounding! Keeping us on task to keep doing what we do.

​Stubbs 2009-2025. She was deteriorating so fast.
I took her to ER last night.
Stubbs and 2 other cats Bubbles and Lola rescued from trailer park.
Back then management in this trailer park they thought it was ok to kill free roaming cats. I don't know if it was legal or not but they were ordering residents to stop feeding cats or be evicted.
A pest control company (who shall remain nameless) was doing the dastardly deeds. Since her rescue all 3 lived in peace comfort and safety for over 15 years. It was just her time. Rest now Stubbs you will be greeted by many gone before you.
