Street Cat Community Outreach (SCCO) is committed to improving the lives of Morgan County cats by spaying and neutering both homeless and owned cats in underserved and economically depressed neighborhoods.
SCCO’s strategy is known as “Targeted TNR” (Trap-Neuter-Return). Targeted TNR means attempting to trap every cat in a specific area for TNR and then expanding to surrounding areas. This approach improves the lives of cats by significantly decreasing population and disease.
Not only does SCCO want to improve the lives of cats, our goal is also to reduce the number of cats entering local animal shelters.
We hope to tackle the problem of cat overpopulation in selected areas, by taking a proactive, grassroots approach through community outreach: walking neighborhoods, knocking on doors, identifying the location of cats and their human caregivers, enlisting the help of residents, and providing resources.
We strive to establish collaborative relationships with property owners, government agencies, and animal welfare organizations in order to accomplish measurable results in our community.
SCCO believes citizens will choose to provide humane care for cats when given the resources and support to do so.
