Alley Cat Project’s primary mission is to reduce the population of stray cats in Seattle through trap, neuter, and return of feral cats. We spay and neuter feral adult cats, and we foster, socialize and adopt out kittens as well as adult cats who have socialization potential. ACP is 100% volunteer run and foster based, and does not have a physical shelter.
What We Do
Here are some things we do to help Seattle’s feral, stray and abandoned cats:
- Trap, Neuter (or spay), and Return (TNR) feral cats to their colonies. TNR is a humane solution to the problem of unowned free roaming cats.
- Foster friendly cats who were lost or abandoned so that they can be redeemed by an owner or adopted to a new family.
- Socialize semi-friendly kittens and cats so they can be adopted as pets.
- Provide basic medical care, nutritious food, and safe and sanitary conditions to all cats after alteration.
- Alter cats through the services of Feral Cat Spay/Neuter Project (FCSNP).

The adoptable kittens and cats you see today don’t all start out this way. Life on the streets is rough — constant risks of injury, infection, congenital issues, poisoning… it never ends for community cats just trying to survive.![]()

But we don’t look away. Not when it’s hard. Not when it’s expensive. And definitely not when a cat needs us most.![]()

Sybil is one of the many medically complex cats who came into our care this year. Even before trapping her, we knew something was wrong with her eye. Thanks to an amazing foster and fast medical care, she’s finally safe, comfortable, and getting the treatment she deserves.![]()

The biggest generosity movement of the year is just 15 days away! Giving Tuesday is an incredibly important day for nonprofits and the communities they serve. This #GivingTuesday we are highlighting one of our current medical cases- Kendrick Purrmar.![]()
![]()
Kendrick is one of 20+ cats found living in a Seattle yard, making his home inside some old cars. What had started as a couple of strays turned into a full-blown colony. This friendly fellow was seen limping and was scooped up and brought into foster care.![]()
![]()
We took him in to get X-rays and discovered he has a rare congenital condition. Kendrick was born with malformed femoral heads. This abnormality causes instability, inflammation, and pain in his legs, making it difficult for him to walk comfortably.![]()
![]()
The cost of his surgery, hospitalization, and recovery care is significant, and we’re seeking support to make his treatment possible. ![]()
![]()
We’ve already helped more cats this year than ever before — surpassing our 2024 total on November 1st. and the cats and kittens keep coming. Cats like Kendrick remind us why we can’t stop. And thanks to help from donors we can give him the chance to run, play, and live without discomfort.![]()
![]()
Mark your calendars for December 2nd and help us spread the word to as many people as possible! Every dollar counts, and cats like Kendrick are depending on us all ❤️![]()
