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).

Join us for Alley Cat Project’s next in-person adoption event where you will be able to meet some of our adoptable kittens and cats.When: Saturday, November 14thTime: 10:30am- 1pmWhere: All the Best Pet Care - Wallingford3830 Stone Way, SeattleAvailable kittens and cats range in age, color, and personality - kitten to adult - with most already in bonded pairs. Come see them in person to find the purrfect match for your family! They will go home with you immediately after adoption, so please come prepared with a sturdy carrier to bring them home in.Save time by pre-filling out our questionnaire — alleycatproject.org/adoptPlease indicate that you plan to come to the event and what you are looking for (eg pair of kittens) in your response to the question “name of cat you are interested in.” The questionnaire will need to be completed prior to seeing any cats.*Due to limited space and minimizing stress for our cats and kittens, only those who are ready to adopt and have filled out our questionnaire are allowed in the room. You will also have a brief conversation with one of our volunteers to be approved for adoption prior to meeting any cats or kittens. Thank you for understanding.Please note that Alley Cat Project adopts kittens out in pairs. Kittens thrive when they have a friend! Most kittens will be in bonded pairs at the event. If there are any unpaired kittens in attendance, they can only be adopted to homes that already have a young, similarly aged, friendly, and playful resident cat.All Alley Cat Project’s cats are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated prior to adoption. Consistent with Association of Shelter Veterinarians (ASV) guidelines, ACP follows current shelter medicine practices and does not routinely test every healthy, low-risk cat for FIV and FeLV.Alley Cat Project is a small, but passionate group of volunteers working to reduce the overpopulation of cats in Seattle using humane solutions. Our mission is to ensure that every cat has a good home. Learn more by visiting our link in bio or visiting www.AlleyCatProject.org
Happy National Cat Day and it's Throwback Thursday, so meet Tilly and Clover. 🐾Trapped in July 2025 from a colony of 30 stray cats, they arrived scared, sick, and unsure of people.A year in foster care changed everything. They have transformed from being scared of hands to demanding pets on their own terms! They are still making breakthroughs and settling into indoor life. We looove to see how a safe space, love, and patience can change a cat's life! Stories like theirs start with a foster home. Want to help the next Tilly and Clover? Foster with us - link in bio.Or comment "foster" for more details! #NationalCatDay #ThrowbackThursday #FosterCats #AlleyCatProject SeattleCats
