Mission
The mission of Chalky's Cat Crusade Inc. is to humanely reduce the population of homeless cats in the City of Tampa through targeted Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return. This entails trapping, spay/neuter, vaccination, flea/parasite treatment and return to their original, safe, outdoor locations. TNVR is the most effective method of preventing cat overpopulation and the most humane. Social cats and kittens are fostered for adoption. Assuring the health & safety of cats, and homing the home-able are always a priority! By empowering people to care for community cats and educating them about TNVR we are helping to reduce the number of homeless cats, and ultimately the number of cats being killed in America's shelters.TNR also ensures the cats' health and welfare. Once these cats are sterilized, vaccinated and ear tipped they can live healthy, happy lives in their communities, where caring residents look out for them. Sterilization and vaccination provide a public health benefit to the community.
