Friends of Feral Felines

Cat rescue in Portland, ME

We are the Friends of Feral Felines, an all-volunteer network of individuals working to address the needs of feral, abandoned, and stray cats living in Southern Maine's streets, barns, and woods.

Founded in 1993, we believe that all cats have inherent value and worth. therefore, our mission is to relieve the problems placed on feral cats through population and abandonment.

First, we assess a colony to determine whether it is located in a safe environment. If it is deemed safe, our volunteers manage the colony through daily feedings, and by neutering and tending to health care needs of the colony members. Colonies exist all over southern Maine.
We, trap, neuter, and return (TNR). This method a feral cat is first trapped, then provided medical care, including neutering, and finally returned to its home colony. Over time, TNR reduces the colony size.
