Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Operation Catnip mitigates suffering for community cats and provides support for their caregivers through comprehensive programming.

  • Creating Lasting Impact though Clinical Services In 2024 Operation Catnip provided programs and services that empowered individuals and the community to control the community cat population through affordable and accessible spay-neuter and vaccination services with a total of over 8,481 Spay-Neuter surgeries, of which 1,272 were through our Kitten Shelter Diversion Program. This program alone kept nearly 1,200 kittens out of the local shelters and rescues.

    Expenses $544,797 · Revenue $109,203

  • Building Humane Communities through Caregiver Support Programming that provides the resources Caregivers need to be successful in managing the cats in their care. These resources include trapping training, education, traps and trapping equipment loans, care for seriously ill or injured community cats, and trapping and transport for those unable to do so on their own. In 2024 we served 1,078 unique caregivers in 61 municipalities covering 18 counties.

    Expenses $163,642

  • Transforming the Landscape with Volunteer Support and Student Training Operation Catnip provides proactive programs and services aimed at targeting cats that are frequently overlooked or unseen. This approach prevents issues from becoming problems, mitigates or eliminates unseen suffering, and trains the next generation of humane healers. During 2024 a total of 179 (56 more than in 2023) unique veterinary students performed 6,289 (an increase of 968 over 2023) spay-neuter surgeries and performed or scrubbed in on most of the 74 enucleations, 31 amputations, and 5 entropion repairs under the watchful eye of DVM coaches. This level of experience is not provided by most veterinary universities.
