Best Friends Catnippers enters 2008 with deep gratitude for all of the volunteers, contributors and benefactors to our program, which will celebrate its 9th anniversary in October. Your loyal support has led directly to the sterilization of well over 12,000 stray, homeless and feral cats, thereby preventing millions of cats that otherwise would be living in the back yards, parking lots, alleys, harbor perimeters, college campuses and industrial parks of Los Angeles. Read more about the Catnippers program and its schedule for entirely free, high-volume spay-neuter clinics for feral cat caregivers in 2008.

No More Homeless Pets
Welcome to Best Friends Catnippers. Founded in 1999 by volunteer directors Mark Dodge and Karn Myers, our primary mission is to reduce the population of feral cats by sterilizing as many as possible. In addition, by consistently demonstrating the effectiveness of trap-neuter-return, we seek to bring about changes in public policy so that TNR universally becomes the officially sanctioned and government-funded approach to feral cat management.

Our program elements include:
  • Trap-neuter-return
  • Free, high-volume spay/neuter clinics
  • Coupon and voucher programs
  • Caregiver initiatives and information
  • TNR community hotline
